Chuck D - Rebirth lyrics

[Verse 1] When I get down I give what go around And when I cough I do my best to cut it off I don't claim to be a preacher Not paid to be a teacher But I'm grown I try to be a leader to the bone Never could follow a man with a bottle He's a baby with a beard, not a feared role model And they ask me where I got it, I get it from my pops With a man in the house, all the bullsh** stops Then I sing a song about what the hell is goin' wrong You never know if you only trust the TV and the radio These days You can't see who's in cahoots Cause now the KKK wears three-piece suits It's like that y'all, it's like that y'all In fact you know it's like that y'all
