Chuck D - Get Your sh** Together lyrics

New York City. The bells you hear are ringing to warn the people to evacuate the city as enemies approach Awwwwwwww yeah yeah yeah! Flavor flav back in your face with the hot track boy Get it, get it, uh, what? What's goin' on? I don't know What's really goin' down? Y'all don't know Between the east and the feds Heads don't know But you can bet some of these heads be the first to go Between 18 and 30 pray it don't get dirty Now I got some new cats hearin' me That never heard me 11:30 do the math Damn, here come the draft But I'm at the age where my fightin' is half a**ed sh**, my flags always at half mast Need you ask? While some of y'all laugh But I see war lining these young cats up for bodybags And these so called thugs masquerading in drag Cause now the feds checkin' all them headrags Hopin' this gung ho thing last, uh Cold and dark is the weather, peoples Get your sh** together Where's your head at? We gotta fix ourselves up, fix ourselves up according to the way things are now... now- now- now Cold and dark go the weather I never fix my mouth to say chickens Told y'all in terrordome the clocks tickin' From all sides come the wicked Governments, fundamentalists But how you gonna k** the innocent? Between terrorists and CIA hit lists Like my man Uno says, beware the false prophets Gotta be smarter than this They say war is a profit With loved ones missed But d**h is a debt None of us ain't seen war yet Be careful what y'all ask for War is hell and hell is war All them bling bling things, throw ‘em in the river All that thugged out sh** y'all can't deliver Seen four planes k** everyday folks I guess 911 ain't no joke Wall street cryin' broke Was it God or the devil who spoke? Old vampires hit the new empire Had the sky cookin' Brooklyn had no other choice but to stare and keep lookin' City smile missin' two front teeth While some of y'all still talkin' about beefs Over who? What? Soundscan This month y'all sound scared Guessin' where the party at While downtowns wonderin' where them bodies at Cold and dark is the weather, peoples Get your sh** together We're not gonna be exterminated (On) Come on Ladies and gentlemen we got Johnny Juice on the ones and twos (On) The drummer go The drummer go (On) The ba** go The drummer go (On) Now how you sell soul to a soulless people who sold their soul? Keep the people from bein' sheeple Followin' hollow voices to tomorrow's sorrow Women have nurtured and birthed the earth, uh Man has k**ed many for land and worse Women got a cycle that's spoken for, uh Man got a period, it's called war May the power go to everyday people May war have no sequel, live Reverse the word you get evil Cause people wanna live against evil Avoid the third world war Biological bombs hundred times worse than vietnam So what you gonna do? So what you gonna do? If you was on that plane Both sides would've k**ed your a** too To my peoples Stay on your P's and Q's Get your sh** together Where's your head at? Cold and dark go the weather Get your sh** together Get your sh** together Where's your head at? Cold and dark go the weather Get your sh** together
