Chuck D - Rebel Without a Pause lyrics

[Intro] Brothers and sisters Brothers and sisters, I don't know what this world's coming to [Verse 1: Chuck D] Yes - the rhythm, the rebel Without a pause - I'm lowering my level The hard rhymer - where you never been I'm in You want styling - you know it's time again D the enemy - telling you to hear it They praised the music - this time they play the lyrics Some say no to the album, the show Bum Rush The Sound - I made a year ago I guess you know - you guess I'm just a radical Not on sabbatical - yes to make it critical The only part your body should be parting to Panther power on the hour from the rebel to you [Flavor Flav:] Hey yo Chuck, I don't understand this man! Yo, we got to slow down man, we losing them! [Verse 2: Chuck D] Radio - s**ers never play me On the mix - they just O.K. me Now known and grown when they're clocking my zone it's known Snaking and taking everything that a brother owns Hard - my calling card Recorded and ordered - supporter of Chesimard Loud and proud kicking live next poet supreme Loop a troop, bazooka, the scheme Flavor - a rebel in his own mind Supporter of my rhyme Designed to scatter a line of s**ers who claim I do crime They on my time ticket [Flavor Flav:] Yo chuck, they think we takin shorts! Show em this is cold medina [Hook] Terminator X, Terminator X Terminator X, Terminator [Flavor Flav:] Yo chuck, you gettin' em nervous they can't handle this, they gonna breakdown [Verse 3: Chuck D] From a rebel it's final on black vinyl Soul, rock and roll coming like a rhino Tables turn - s**ers burn to learn They can't disable the power of my label Def Jam - tells you who I am The enemy's public - they really give a damn Strong Island - where I got 'em wild and That's the reason they're claiming that I'm violent Never silent - no dope getting dumb nope Claiming where we get our rhythm from Number one - we hit ya and we give ya some No gun - and still never on the run You wanna be an S.1 - Griff will tell you when And then you'll come again you'll know what time it is Impeach the president - pulling out the ray-gun Zap the next one - I could be your Shogun s**ers - don't last a minute Soft and smooth - I ain't with it Hardcore - rawbone like a razor I'm like a laser - I just won't graze ya Old enough to raise ya - so this will faze ya Get it right boy and maybe I will praise ya Playing the role, I got soul too Voice my opinion with volume Smooth - not what I am Rough - cause I'm a man No matter what the name - we're all the same Pieces in one big chess game Yeah - the voice of power Is in the house - go take a shower boy P.E. a group, a crew - not singular We wear black Wranglers We're rap stranglers You can't angle us - I know you're listening I caught you pissin' in your pants You're scared of us dissing us The crowd is missing us We're on a mission ya'll [Flavor Flav] Yo Chuck! yeah man! Yo you got em runnin' scared! [Hook] Terminator X, Terminator X Terminator X, Terminator [Verse 4] Attitude - when I'm on fire Juice on the loose - electric wire Simple and plain - give me the lane I'll throw it down your throat like Barkley You See my car keys - you'll never get these They belong to the 98 posse You want some more son - you wanna get some Bum rush the door of a store - pick up the album You know the rhythm, the rhyme plus the beat is designed So I can enter your mind, boys! Bring the noise - my time Step aside for the flex - Terminator X [Flavor Flav] Yeah that's right This jam is rated cold medina, boy That's right, cold medina, that's right We showin up in E-F-F-E-C-T, also known as effect You understand what I'm sayin'? [Outro] Yeah! Yeah boy! Bring that beat back Bring that beat back one more time, Chuck Y'all wanna hear that beat, right? Bring that beat back
