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 sh** with the volume level up to
Ten and spendin my time on the rhyme battlefield
Watchin as my brothers are k**ed 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 f**ed 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 k**er_ remain
In between the government and the public that's trained
Where white companies profit off black d**h
And house n***a 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
Bullsh** 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 servin

Yeah, all day everyday we bring believe
All day everyday the most extreme
All day everyday we bring believe
Yeah, all day everyday we break the scheme
[Verse 3: MC Ren]
Worldwide vendetta, these reperations above cheddar
We got to f**in get it together
So each one, teach one, fo' the straggle
Bein black in America's some sh** to juggle
They won't give motherf**ers 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 n***a, you other fools never got bigger
I make this whole system quiver
With the street sh** I'mma deliver, from my villa
Here I go again scarin people to d**h
America hold yo' breath, we the last left
And still got my black a** on the bottom
You motherf**ers in the jury that's why I shot 'em
I shot down one, to get away from two
Now tell me what the f** am I supposed to do

But let tell you a little somethin man
I'm tired of all these flatheads and all these coneheads
You know what I'm sayin? I'mma tell you somethin
There's nuttin but spies out there, you know what I'm sayin?
Somebody is always out there with the binoculars
Somebody's always lookin out they window, and you know who know, that
You don't see everybody that see you, you know what I'm sayin?
So yo, to all you spies, creatin nuttin but lies, yo
In your face you need nuttin but pies, pies, pies
Cold pies, you know what I'm sayin?
You know how that go G
