Public Enemy - Harder Than You Think (London radio edit) lyrics

[Flavor Flav - Intro] 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, wa**up 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 ba** for them brothers And let 'em know, WHAT, GOES, ON! [Chuck D:] Rollin stones of the rap game not braggin Lips bigger than jagger, not saggin Spell it backwards I'm a leave it at that... (what goes on) That ain't got nothin to do with rap Check the facts expose those cats Who pose as heros and take advantage of blacks Your governments gangster so cut the crap A war goin on so where you at? (what goes on) Fight the power comes great responsiblity F the police but whos stoppin you from k**in me? Disasters, fiascos over a loop by pe If it's an I instead of we believin tv (what goes on) Spittin riches, b**hes, and this new thing about snitches Watch them a**es move the ma**es switches System dissed them but barely missed her My soul intention to save my brothers and sisters [Hook:] Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that [Flavor Flav - interlude] 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! [Chuck D:] Screamin gangsta 20 years later Of course endorsed while consciousness faded New generations believing them fables Gangster boogie on two turntables (Just like that) Show no love so it's easy to hate it Desecrated while the coroner waited Any given sunday so where ya'll rate it? With slavery, lynching, and them d** infiltrated (Just like that) I'm like that doll chuckie, baby Keep comin back to live love life like I'm crazy Keep it movin "risin to the top" Doug Fresh clean livin you don't stop (Just like that) 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 [Hook:] Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that [Chuck D:] 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 sell soul, g wiz People bear witness (Just like that) Thank you for lettin us be ourself 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 (Just like that) Live life love like you just don't care 5000 leaders never scared Bring the noise it's the moment they fear Get up still a beautiful idea Get up Throw yo hands in the air Get up show no fear Get up if ya'll really care Pe 20 years Now get up Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that Get up Hard... just like that [Flavor Flav - Outro] Yeah, that's right, we Public Enemy #1 in New York Public Enemy #1 in Philly, Public Enemy #1 in D.C Public Enemy #1 in Cleveland, Ohio (we're harder than you think) Also we're Public Enemy #1 in St. Louis (It's a beautiful thing) Public Enemy #1 in New Jersey And bust it, we also Public Enemy #1 in Cincinnatti, (we're harder than you think) And Atlanta, even Public Enemy #1 in Chicago, Public Enemy #1 in Detroit (It's a beautiful thing) Public Enemy #1 in Oakland (We're harder than you think) Public Enemy #1 in Baltimore Public Enemy #1 in Miami, Public Enemy #1 in Indiana Also Public Enemy #1 in L.A.
