paroles de chanson Harder Than You Think (Remix) - Public Enemy

Yo Chuck, bust a move man
I was on my way up here to the studio, you know what I'm sayin'?
And this brother stop me and ask 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'ma leave it at that
That ain't got nothin' to do with rap
Check the facts, expose those cats
Who pose as heroes, 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 stoppingyou from killlin me?
Disaster, fiascos over a loop by P.E.
If it's I instead of we believin' TV
Spittin' riches, bitches, and this new thing about snitches
Watch them asses move as the masses switches
System dissed them but barely missed her
My soul intention to save my brothers and sisters

Hard (get up!)
Just like that
Hard (get up!)
Just like that
Hard (get up!)
Just like that
Hard (get up!)
Just like that

Yeah, that's right Chuck, man
That's what you gotta do
You got to tell 'em just like that, 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 that

Screamin' gangsta 20 years later
Of course endorsed while consciousness faded
New generation believin' 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 y'all rate it?
Wit' slavery, lynchin', and them drugs 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', rising 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'
If you don't stand for something, you fall for anything
Harder than you think, it's a beautiful thing

Hard (get up!)
Just like that
Hard (get up!)
Just like that
Hard (get up!)
Just like that
Hard (get up!)
Just like that

Yeah, that's right Chuck, man
That's what you gotta do
You got to tell 'em just like that, 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 that

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 (just like that)
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 (just like that)

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 (just like that)

Hard (get up!)
Throw your hands in the air (just like that)
Hard (get up!)
Yeah, show no fear (just like that)
Hard (get up!)
If y'all really care (just like that)
Hard (P, 20 years!)
Just like that (now get up!)
