[Paris]
|
Yes, live, real rap's back again
|
You in tune to the real, Hard Truth Soldier radio
|
The _Sonic Jihad_ continues

Where you either with us, or you against us
|
Dogs of the world unite
|
It's Public Enemy

[Verse 1: Chuck D]
|
GOD DAMN I state with my fist uplifted
|
In a state where our freedom is severely twisted and
|
abused, I'm used to rhythm of rebel
|
I've been fightin this shit with the volume level up to
|
ten and spendin my time on the rhyme battlefield
|
Watchin as my brothers are killed with no justice
|
or peace, in the middle of hell
|
And I was out on the Isle when the two Towers fell
|
So now you're gonna tell that the war is won
|
and what's done is done, an all-good _Son of a Bush_
|
I've been there before, "got a letter from government"
|
Slid underneath, my front door
|
The poor get fucked while the rich is still amused
|
And what's left of the Bill of Rights is pimped and abused
|
While the patriots actin like kings
|
But the black is back, I'm all in with the noise I bring!

[Verse 2: Paris]
|
Ask yourself why we just get by
|
While we struggle to maintain, bring sight to the blind
|
Up against the machine the _Bush Killer_ remain
|
In between the government and the public that's trained
|
Where white companies profit off black death
|
And house nigga rap thugs sell murder to kids
|
Where the media maintains all thought control
|
And fake news propaganda serve to rot the soul
|
We all unified to fight, keep the message and awake black
|
Open up your eyes, see the enemy and shake that
|
Bullshit lyin, free your mind, we combine
|
To combat the perpetrator of the crime design
|
With fake patri-ots and religion the same
|
Both blind and repressed, both practicin hate
|
Both followin the lead of people never concerned
|
with justice when the motive is the profit return
|
we justice when motivate and positive return
|
We servin

|
Worldwide vendetta, these reperations above cheddar
|
We got to fuckin get it together
|
So each one, teach one, fo' the straggle
|
Bein black in America's some shit to juggle
|
They won't give motherfuckers a job
|
They wanna throw you in the pen when you forced to rob
|
But the Villain is back, with the Black Panther of rap
|
Paris my nigga, you other fools never got bigger
|
I make this whole system quiver
|
With the street shit I'ma deliver, from my villa
|
Here I go again scarin people to death
|
America hold yo' breath, we the last left
|
And still got my black ass on the bottom
|
You motherfuckers in the jury that's why I shot 'em
|
I shot down one, to get away from two
|
Now tell me what the fuck am I supposed to do
