Public Enemy - Can't Hold Us Back lyrics

We spit flows on foes Listen to the message that ya never know Got a plan for the man and it's federal The rhyme animal, back to play the part again Clear the madness - and put the message in D the enemy is back to rip the mic We come together - so don't believe the hype Check my tone it's a war here at home We united and strong - and never move alone We rep justice, equality and freedom now Put fam first, man woman and child Never mild keep it hostile 'till we raise Where we say what we mean and we mean what we say It's been a long time coming that we mob as one Guerrilla funk, hard truth and, that's what's up No peace on the street 'till the justice come From the ballot to the bullet, if it's on, it's on Chorus: I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, see I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, believe I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, my brother I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, that's real talk on the one Yo I'm a target I got proof, my building got an 'X' on it Bloomberg threw the hex on it, It's like a pistol with effects on it On a brother with arrest warrants Hittin' pigs in they in they chest quadrant where they vest wasn't Now he dead cousin All you snitches hit the red bu*tons, we some Uncle-Tom k**as Mini-nina concealers, political cap-peelers for this freedom fo' rilla Yo if police stop the whip you got to eat them trees I ain't got no 'G' to give to these coppers and court fees You know my steez, security first, prepare for the worst Never caught slippin' if you stay on alert Malcolm X said send send 'em to the cemetery if they touch you A revolutionary virtue - a dull blade'll hurt you I'm up early workin' my machete In war, it ain't no warning, you just got to be ready Chorus: I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, see I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, believe I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, my brother I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, that's real talk on the one It's bigger than rap- You really think you gon' be left alone On sayin' that you believe and ain't gon' have to get your scrap on? Then yap on, and will see if that's the right route While I get my clap on and turn snitches lights out I tried to be nice, now we gon' have to bleed 'em I'm willing to do a k**in' for the price of freedom Comin' from the left, brother, hood is how we kept it So prison or d**h is just something I done accepted So we'll murder a snake, and we'll k** a skunk This ain't the word of a fake, it's Guerrilla Funk So right now is the time and your turf's the location Y'all about to see the Rebirth Of a Nation Even if some got de-rebelized The revolution still will not be televised U.S. Government tellin' hella lies And it's evident when you look in this president's devil eyes Chorus: I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, see I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, believe I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, my brother I ain't lettin nothin hold me back or block me, they gon' have to pop me to stop me, that's real talk on the one
