|
Banned from our damned so called country |
|
No claim, y'all know the goddamn name |
|
Some got the rest of the planet to fill us, damn it |
|
Substance over style, that's right, we're on exile |
|
Them old heads from strong out da Velt |
|
No love, good lookin' out but damn sure felt |
|
Hear me, fear me, appeared to disappear the sequel |
|
Said keep PE from the people |
|
Stole your soul, kept the groove on your body black |
|
Now you can't get your mind back |
|
Too dirty for the source power 30 |
|
Too clean for 30 year olds who wanna be 16 |
|
I beg your pardon, we be live in other genres |
|
You know what? While your favorites are just startin' |
|
We come back to do a soul check every once in a while |
|
Like a sonic, you know what? Messiah |
|
To find out these cats got this thing runnin' wild |
|
Oh God bless the child |
|
Soul power, soul power |
|
Soul power, soul power |
|
Soul power, soul power |
|
Soul power, soul power |
|
I'm spittin' in the wind till it knocks down a tree in the woods |
|
Allah u Akbar, God is good |
|
Either you stand for something or fall for anything |
|
You can get all the money, cars and things and still have nothing |
|
Lookin' for love in all the wrong places |
|
Between gettin' high on the price tags and smilin' faces |
|
Thinkin' you need rings and things and timbs and rims |
|
That ain't rap, that's bein' slaves again |
|
Hip-hop says you can be what you wanna be |
|
As long as you ain't F A K E |
|
It's a four letter word like fame that fades |
|
And if you believe it you're F U C K E D |
|
But how you sell soul to a soulless people who sold their soul? |
|
I guess we all got stole on |
|
By some of the same cats that sold your soul out |
|
Gee wiz, bring that beat back, come on |
|
Soul power, soul power |
|
Soul power, soul power |
|
Soul power, soul power |
|
Soul power, soul power |
|
Soul, soul, Public Enemy, Public Enemy |
|
How you sell soul to a soulless people who sold their soul? |
|
How you sell soul to a soulless people who sold their soul? |
|
How you sell soul? How you sell soul? |
