[Intro: Chuck D]
|
Watch the door, Chuck D, Public Enemy
|
Paris, Guerilla Funk, Rebirth of a Nation 2006
|
Everybody needs somebody to watch the door as it's goin on
|
Securin you - who's securin what?!
|
Watch the door
|
|
[Chuck D]
|
Now I'm down to do your thing if your thing's the right thing
|
P.E. ain't tryin to hear no fat lady sing (naw)
|
Don't get it twisted cause we still love the music in the past
|
Through the years see them use it then abuse it
|
Some of these cats ain't sat down, washed their hands
|
and say to the grace to the game, so they're a disgrace to the race
|
Dig it, P-Dog we be diggin them party joints
|
Beats for everybody joints
|
Takin care and persevere I'm makin my point
|
Message around the world, rap be's for the poor
|
You on the floor, we at the door
|
Rob the rich, give to the poor
|
|
[Chorus: x2]
|
Rob the rich, give to the poor
|
Give back to get back cause we watch the door
|
|
[Chuck D]
|
Cause it's about to go down these cowboys have jumped the corral
|
Survival yeah we got the nerve to serve
|
Like a hip-hop bible, don't libel
|
Guerilla Funk, they got the title
|
The late great, no need to donate dollars
|
I don't care if they poppin collars and holla's
|
Who can't think between drinks, Chuck D I'm the driver
|
Hard act to follow, I think for tomorrow
|
Remix of old P.E. hits, I ain't up against it
|
If it was up to me I'd give it all away (yeah)
|
Anyway, uploads for my people to download
|
Shit so hot, iPods explode
|
One at a time baby, for your mind baby
|
Uhh, to keep your soul in control baby
|
Not crazy this party's for everybody
|
You on the floor, and I be watchin the door
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
|
[samples: some scratched]
|
"You sold us out!"
|
"They don't pay you enough to do that boy"
|
"You sold us out!"
|
"Some things you don't sell"
|
"You sold us out!"
|
"They don't pay you enough to do that boy"
|
"You sold us out!"
|
"Too much, get away from stuff like that"
|
|
[Chuck D]
|
Multiply, do not divide
|
Think globally, act locally
|
Passport, showin no support
|
Makin World War III, lookin like a sport
|
Human race, in the only place
|
we know as Earth, right in our face
|
And the firebombs, and the toxic waste
|
Will leave this world without a trace
|
And we don't want no other war
|
Too late the feds done closed the door
|
And we the peeps get spoken for
|
The people want peace but the people get a quota
|
Got the cure, high price for sure
|
Fix the rich, and damn the poor
|
Laptops, shoes, off says the law
|
Make love, fuck the war
|
|
[Chorus x2: fades out]
|
|
[Chuck D - continues to fade]
|
You're damn right!
|
Public Enemy, Rebirth of a Nation
|
Paris, Guerilla Funk
|
2006 for yo' bad ass
|
Yeah, somebody gotta watch the damn door!
