letra de my conscience - shakespeare & the last empire

[intro]
here’s another shakespearen creation that’s gonna sweep the nation
word up

[verse]
i have this conscience, played by kaos the lyricist
he always tries to help me out and always tries to assist
now i don’t know how long, maybe since i was born
he always whispered in my ears whenever i was doing wrong
like for instance one night, i went to this party
peoples was acting wild, and drinking bacardi
this fly girl came, she put a glass in my hand
said the guy who drinks [willie wooze?] is her man
so i drunk a lot (why?) to look fresher
didn’t know i was the victim of peer prеssure
i tried to impress hеr, drinkin’ quicker and quicker
guzzlin’ 40s and some other type of liquor
then after awhile, i felt no joy
then my conscience came and said “roy, you naughty boy”
don’t you see what you’re doing to yourself?
yo, not only is this not good for your health
but suppose you leave, after this big bash
then find yourself causin’ a car crash?
so put up your bottle, a-don’t drop the liquor
man, population is shrinkin’ from people drivin’ and drinkin’
that night i got home safe without a single crack
and i said to my conscience “you always talk trash”
one day i was shoppin’ in green acres mall
way down the hall i heard this girl call
she said “shakespeare, shakespeare, please wait a minute”
she wore a fur coat with a fly body in it
she said “remember me? back in 1980
you went to my school, what was it called again, one-thirty?”
“since i remember, you were in my classes
but back then you wore these bifocal glasses”
she said “not any more,” i said “so i see”
she said spun around and said “look, what p-b-rty did for me”
she had a dope body and a matching face
she said “let’s discuss old times at my place
over some cookies and a hot cup of tea
i said “okay, that sounds good to me”
then my conscience appeared and said “yo homes, think twice
or later on you just might pay the price
i understand the idea sounds good
but i just (i mean i just) don’t think you should
so take my advice and please listen”
but i ignored him, that’s my way of dissin’
we went to her house and there was plenty action
about to get busy then there was a distraction
someone at the door, poundin’ hard
she started to panic and i found that odd
when she opened up the door she said hi ken
i said “who’s he?” she said “my boyfriend”
now this kid was cut like a bodybuilder
have you ever seen that dog matilda?
that’s when i understood his name was ken as in kennel
he started grabbin’ things, sharp and metal
he started rippin’ things apart and actin’ ill
he said my only intentions now are to k!ll
so i detract, i jetted through the backdoor
i heard the k!ll yell “next time i’ll break you jaw”
i got home safe without a hit or a laugh
then i said to my conscience “you always talk trash”
steps up the block up to the boulevard
i seen the known threat and he was tryna play hard
he said “what’s up?” i said “what’s up, yo long time no see”
he said “yo shakespeare, do you still mc?”
i said “of course, hit it with force, i’m still the rap master”
he said “how would you like to make money a little faster?”
all you have to do is chill here with me
“you’ll make much money,” i said “how much?” he said “a g”
just from a short time stand here from now ’til three
he said “it’s a breeze, i got so much girls
plus look down the block, that’s my gold mercedes
i got so much dollars things to me come free
from head to toe, genuine gucci”
i said “yo, i wanna live, i wanna live just like that
tell me what must i do to make my pockets fat?”
he said “just chill on any one of these blocks
and for five dollars, sell all of these rocks”
so i grabbed the vials and stepped to the corner
then came my conscience, that constant warner
“yo shake, are you stupid, crazy or a nut?
yo, selling drugs is not a shortcut
you’ve been taken in and i’m sure you’re not the first
yo, selling drugs just makes this world worse
sure he has gold but it’s not how it seems
’cause it will come to an end, and what about your dreams?
yo, it would all vanish and become a myth
he just wants company to go to jail with
you don’t have to sell drugs or even rob
just work hard at a legal job
you can say that i’m dumb and the act’s all trash
but yo if you don’t listen roy, that’s your ass”
now i don’t wanna go to jail, i’m not the criminal type
i don’t look good behind bars and i don’t like wearing stripes
it’s not the place i belong, because the wait is long
and common sense told me that it was wrong
so i went back to the kid, gave him the vials back
told him that his lifestyle to me was wack
and it was definitely, definitely not for me
i’ll just stick to being the world’s greatest mc
so i left the kid and he stayed there pumpin’
then i turned around ’cause i knew i heard something (freeze!)
five-o rolled up and they grabbed the kid
yo, i’m glad i stepped and i’m lucky that i did
but it was that kid’s unlucky day
cops shoved him in the car and they took him away
now i learned a great lesson that same night
you should listen to your conscience
(yo, listen to your conscience)
you should listen to your conscience ’cause it’s usually right
(’cause it’s usually right)
[outro]
yeah, and before i break outta here i just wanna say
(’cause it’s usually right)
(word, ’cause it’s usually right)
you should listen to your conscience (yo, listen to your conscience)
you should listen to your conscience ’cause it’s usually right
(because it’s usually right)
(because it’s usually right)
i told you
yo k, good lookin’ out
later
