Public Enemy - Prophets Of Rage Lyrics
Ridenhour - shocklee - sadlerWith vice I hold the mike deviceWith force I keep it away of courseAnd Im keepin you from sleepinAnd on stage I rageAnd Im rollinTo the poor I pour in on in metaphorsNot bluffin, its nothinThat we aint did beforeWe played you stayedThe points madeYou consider it doneBy the prophets of rage(power of the people say)I roll with the punches so I surviveTry to rock cause it keeps the crowd aliveIm not ballin, Im just callinBut Im past the days of yes yallinWa wiggle round and roundI pump, you jump upHear my words my verbsAnd get juiced upI been around a whileYou can descibe my soundClear the wayFor the prophets of rage(power of the people say)I rang ya bellCan you tell I got feelinJust peace at leastCause I want itWant it so badThat Im starvinIm like garveySo you can see bIts like that, Im like natLeave me the hell aloneIf you dont think Im a brotherThen check the chromosomesThen check the stageI declare it a new ageGet down for the prophets of rageKeep you from gettin like thisYou back the trackYou find were the quotableYou emulateBrothers, sisters thats beautifulFollow a pathOf positivity you goSome sing it or rap itOr harmonize it through go-goLittle you know but verySeldom I do party jamsAbout a planIm considered the manIm the recordableBut God made it affordableI say it, you play itBack in your car or even portableStereoDescribes my scenarioLeft or right, black or whiteThey tell lies in the booksThat youre readinIts knowledge of yourselfThat youre needinLike vescey or prosserWe have a reason whyTo debate the hateThats why were born to dieMandela, cell dweller, thatcherYou can tell her clear the way for the prophets of rage(power of the people you say)Its raw and keepin you on the floorIts soul and keepin you in controlIts pt. 2 cause imPumpin what youre used toUntil the whole juice crewGets me in my goose downI do the rebel yellAnd Im the duracellCall it plain insaneBrothers causein me painWhen a brothers a victimAnd the sellers a dweller in a cageYo, run the a capella(power of the people say)
