Chuck D - He Got Game (Album Version) lyrics

[Flavor Flav] Yeah that's right This cut goes out to all y'all that's been missin us for mad years One love y'all Yeah that's right, He Got Game PE 1998 [Chuck D] If man is the father, the son is the center of the earth In the middle of the universe, then why Is this verse comin' six times rehearsed? Don't freestyle much but I write em like such (Word) Amongst the fiends controlled by the screens What does it all mean, all this sh** I'm seein'? Human beings screaming vocal javelins Signs of a local n***a unravelling (un huh) My wanderin' got my a** wondering Where Christ is in all this crisis? Hatin' Satan never knew what nice is Check the papers while I bet on ices More than your eye can see and ears can hear Year by year all the sense disappears Nonsense perseveres, prayers laced with fear Beware, two triple O is near [Hook - both] It might feel good It might sound a little somethin' But damn the game if it don't mean nuttin' What is game? Who got game? Where's the game in life, behind the game behind the game I got game, she's got game We got game, they got game, he got game It might feel good It might sound a little somethin' But f** the game if it ain't sayin' nuttin' [Chuck D] Damn, was it something I said? Pretend you don't see so you turn your head Ray scared of his shadow, does it matter? Thought of reparations got 'em playin' with the population Nothin to lose, everything's approved People used, even murders excused (You preach to em yo) White men in suits don't have to jump Still a thousand and one ways to lose with his shoes God takes care of old folks and fools While the devil takes care of makin all the rules Folks don't even own themselves Payin mental rent, to corporate presidents (My man my man) Ugh, one outta million residents Bein dissident, who ain't kissin it The politics of chains and whips Got the sick missin' chips and all the championships What's Love Got To Do with what you got Don't let a win get to your head or a loss to your heart (Word) Nonsense perserveres, prayers laced with fear Beware, two triple O is near Chorus [Flavor Flav] Yeah that's right Everybody got game But we just here to let y'all know That PE, is in full effect, from right now till the year 2000 Aiyo my man sing it [Stephen Stills] There's something happening here (Yeah yeah) What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man, with a gun over there (Yeah that's right hah haha) Tellin me, I got to beware It's time we stop, children what's that sound? Everybody look what's goin, down (Aiyo, I don't think they heard you Stevie Kick it to em again one more time) It's time we stop, children what's that sound? Everybody look what's goin, down [Flavor Flav] Haha, that's right boy, PE in full effect boy to the year 2000 yo [Shabach Community Choir of Long Island] Stop, look, what's that sound Everybody knows what's goin down *repeat to fade* [Flavor Flav - over top of choir] Come on sing it Sing it again y'all come on Hey! He-hey!!! Aiyo, these are some serious times that we're livin in G And a new world order is about to begin, y'knowhutI'msayin? Now the question is - are you ready, for the real revolution Which is the evolution of the mind? If you seek then you shall find that we all come from the divine You dig what I'm sayin? Now if you take heed to the words of wisdom That are written on the walls of life Then universally, we will stand and divided we will fall Because love conquers all, you understand what I'm sayin? This is a call to all you sleepin souls Wake up and take control of your own cipher And be on the lookout for the spirit snipers Tryin to steal your light, y'knowhutI'msayin? Look within-side yourself, for peace Give thanks, live life and release You dig me? You got me?
