Song | Hannibal Lecture |
Artist | Public Enemy |
Album | Rebirth Of A Nation |
作词 : Paris | |
Being here in | |
America doesn't make you an | |
AmericanBeing born here in | |
America doesn't make you an | |
AmericanWhy if birth made you an | |
American you wouldn't need any legislation | |
You wouldn't need any amendments to the | |
Constitution | |
I don't see any | |
American dream, | |
I see an American nightmare | |
I'm one of the 42 million black people who are the victims of | |
America[Paris] | |
Aiyyo we all in together now, all in together now | |
Hard truth soldierin, hard truth soldier | |
SHITKeep on servin 'em, cause you know we do work | |
Mashin in my | |
Chevy down the streets of | |
New York, they feel me | |
I smooth grip, and hit up the spot | |
Snatch Flav as my dual pipes burn up the block | |
We bumpin hardcore, heavyweight, b-boy blast | |
On the street they hear my beat, my 69 is fast | |
Smash down | |
Lennox, head up to the ' | |
ViewSome reporter wanna holla and | |
I said it was cool | |
Wanna know about the album and the | |
Enemy's new | |
How P.E. and | |
Guerilla Funk is keepin it movin | |
Breakin bread talkin politics, you know how it go' | |
Bout the war and how it's shitty that we murder for dough | |
Then the reporter asked a question, that | |
I had to mash | |
How, I would act if every day was maybe my last | |
How if every day | |
I worried 'bout my family in this | |
I'd be murdered on these street in a puddle of piss | |
Or if I would get some news that my brother had died | |
If they ran up in my house and held my kids and my wife | |
Or if we was looted and somebody took all our thangs | |
If my sister was abducted, never heard from again | |
I began to compare it, so he could observe | |
When I made the parallels with how they livin abroad | |
I can't ignore it, these pigs ride deep in the streets | |
Cap a nigga for his wallet, beat another for free | |
And the cold part about it, life is cheaper than that | |
Down there people on the bottom kill each other for scraps | |
Imagine that, propoganda got the people confused | |
Damned by the media that keep 'em subdued | |
I been around the world, seen a lot of shit in my life | |
Same sirens, same ghetto birds swirlin at night | |
Same racism, profilin each of us all | |
Same outsiders where we live enforcin the law | |
Gats clappin on the streets, gunplayin with heat | |
Same prisons full of brothers herded in like sheep | |
Same turncoats that'll burn folks for pay | |
Same conditions in communities we die everyday | |
Same brutality and ignorance, now what will it taketo break the motherfuckin cycle, get the people away? | |
That's why | |
I'm fresh out of tears for 'em, all out of tears for 'em | |
Even though my heart goes out, what the fuck you cryin 'bout? | |
Money for rebuilding but, what about home? | |
When the way we live is shitty where's the love for our own? | |
I can't decide it, it's real, | |
I hit you with proof | |
Maybe I'll be suicided cause | |
I hit you with truth | |
See they kill for less than what we say on records to you | |
Hear the message in the music from a rebel to you, now listen[Outro: x6 to end] | |
Save my life you gotta, save my life you gotta [x3] | |
Save us, save us |
