Текст песни Black Steel In The Hour / Do You Wanna Go Our Way - Live - James Bomb , Pop Diesel , Public Enemy

I got a letter from the government
The other day
I opened and read it
It said they were suckers
They wanted me for their army or whatever
Picture me given′ a damn - I said never
Here is a land that never gave a damn
About a brother like me and myself
Because they never did
I wasn't wit′ it, but just that very minute
It occured to me
The suckers had authority
Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell
How long has it been?
They got me sittin' in the state pen
I gotta get out - but that thought was thought before
I contemplated a plan on the cell floor
I′m not a fugitive on the run
But a brother like me begun - to be another one
Public enemy servin′ time - they drew the line y'all
To criticize me some crime - never the less
They could not understand that I′m a Black man
And I could never be a veteran
On the strength, the situation's unreal
I got a raw deal, so I′m goin' for the steel
You know I caught a C-O
Fallin′ asleep on death row
I grabbed his gun - then he did what I said so
And everyman's got served
Along with the time they served
Decency was deserved
To understand my demands
I gave a warnin' - I wanted the governor, y′all
And plus the warden to know
That I was innocent -
Because I′m militant
Posing a threat, you bet it's fuckin′ up the government
My plan said I had to get out and break north
Just like with Oliver's neck
I had to get off - my boys had the feds in check
They couldn′t do nuthin'
We had a force to instigate a prison riot
This is what it takes for peace
So I just took the piece
Black for Black inside time to cut the leash
Freedom to get out - to the ghetto - no sell out
6 C-Os we got we ought to put their head out
But I′ll give 'em a chance, cause I'm civilized
As for the rest of the world, they can′t realize
A cell is hell - I′m a rebel so I rebel
Between bars, got me thinkin' like an animal
Got a woman C-O to call me a copter
She tried to get away, and I popped her
Twice, right
Now who wanna get nice?
I had 6 C-Os, now it′s 5 to go
And I'm serious - call me delirious
But I′m still a captive
I gotta rap this
Time to break as time grows intense
I got the steel in my right hand
Now I'm lookin′ for the fence
I ventured into the courtyard
Followed by 52 brothers
Bruised, battered, and scarred but hard
Goin' out with a bang
Ready to bang out
But power from the sky
And from the tower shots rang out
A high number of dose - yes
And some came close
Figure I trigger my steel
Stand and hold my post
This is what I mean - an anti-nigger machine
If I come out alive and then they won't - come clean
And then I threw up my steel bullets - flew up
Blew up, who shot
What, who, the bazooka was who
And to my rescue, it was the S1Ws
Who shot
What, who, the bazooka was who
And to my rescue, it was the S1Ws
Secured my getaway, so I just gotaway
The joint broke, from the black smoke
Then they saw it was rougher that the average bluffer
′Cause the steel was black, the attitude exact
Now the chase is on tellin′ you to c'mon
53 brothers on the run, and we are gone
Now what, sound of my DJ cuts
Terminator′s back on some old fool's track
Takes a nation of sellouts to keep us back
Flippin′ disco raps used to be whack
Now what you hear is what you lack
Take a lil' bit of this, a lil′ bit of that
Who dropped the bomb on hip-hop
Who shot Biggie, and who shot 2Pac
What's forgot? Ain't no Eazy, no Scott La Rock
Now what′s rap gotta do with what you got
For whom the bell tolls, is that the way the story goes
85% believing all the videos
God knows who controls the radios
Some people chose the road to be hoes
And so I rose in the middle of all the woes
And Def Jam negroes turnin′ up their nose
There's one way in, there′s no way out
No doubt the body count
Gettin' headz checkin′ out
Do you wanna go our way
This the way we puttin' this down
Do you wanna go our way
This the way we puttin′ this down
Do you wanna go our way
This the way we puttin' this down
Do you wanna go our way
This the way we puttin' this down
