Harder Than You Think - Public Enemy (公众之敌)

Yo Chuck bust a move man

I was on my way up here to the studio ya know what I'm sayin'

And this brother stop me and axe me

"Yo wassup with that brother Chuckie D He swear he nice"

I said "Yo the brother don't swear he's nice he KNOWS he's nice"

Ya know what I'm sayin'

So Chuck I got a feelin you turnin him into a Public Enemy man

Now remember that line you was kicking to me

On the way out to LA Lounge in Queens

While we was in the car on our way to the Shop

Well yo right now kick the bass for them brothers

And let 'em know WHAT GOES ON

Rolling Stones of the rap game not braggin'

Lips bigger than Jagger not saggin'

Spell it backwards I'mma leave it at that

That ain't got nuttin to do with rap

Check the facts expose those cats

Who pose as heroes and take advantage of blacks

Your government's gangster so cut the crap

A war goin on so where y'all at

"Fight the Power" comes great responsibility

'F the Police' but who's stopping YOU from killlin me

Disaster fiascos over a loop by P E

If it's an I instead of we believin TV

Spittin riches b**ches and this new thing about snitches

Watch them asses move as the masses switches

System dissed them but barely missed her

My sole intention to save my brothers and sisters

Hard (Get up )

JUST LIKE DAT

Hard (Get up )

JUST LIKE DAT

Hard (Get up )

JUST LIKE DAT

Hard (Get up )

JUST LIKE DAT

Yeah that's right Chuck man

That's what you gotta do

You got to tell 'em JUST LIKE DAT ya know what I'm sayin

Cause yo lemme tell you a lil something man

These brothers runnin around hard-headed

They get a lil jealous you know what I'm sayin

Just like that You know they try to bring you down wit 'em

But yo Chuck you got to tell 'em JUST LIKE DAT

Screamin gangsta twenty years later

Of course endorsed while consciousness faded

New generation believin them fables

"Gangster Boogie" on two turntables

Show no love so it's easy to hate it

Desecrated while the coroner waited

Any given Sunday so where y'all rate it

Wit slavery lynchin and them *** infiltrated

I'm like that doll Chucky baby

Keep comin back to live love life like I'm crazy

Keep it movin Rising to the Top

Doug Fresh clean livin you don't stop

Revolution means change don't look at me strange

So I can't repeat what other rappers be sayin

You don't stand for something you fall for anything

Harder than you think it's a beautiful thing

Hard (Get up )

JUST LIKE DAT

Hard (Get up )

JUST LIKE DAT

Hard (Get up )

JUST LIKE DAT

Hard (Get up )

JUST LIKE DAT

Yeah that's right Chuck man

That's what you gotta do

You got to tell 'em JUST LIKE DAT ya know what I'm sayin

Cause yo lemme tell you a lil something man

These brothers runnin around hard-headed

They get a lil jealous you know what I'm sayin

Just like that You know they try to bring you down wit 'em

But yo Chuck you got to tell 'em JUST LIKE DAT

So it's time to leave you a preview

So you too can review what we do

20 years in this business How You Sell Soul

Gee whiz people bear witness

Thank you for lettin us be ourselves

So don't mind me if I repeat myself

These simple lines be good for your health

To keep them crime rhymes on the shelf

Live love life like you just don't care

Five thousand leaders never scared

"Bring the Noise " it's 'the moment they feared'

Get up Still a beautiful idea

Get up - Throw yo hands in the air

Get up and show no fear

Get up if y'all really care
