Lyrics Public Enemy

Public Enemy

He Got Game

If man is the father then the son

Is the center of the earth

In the middle of the universe

Then why is this verse coming

Six times rehearsed

Don't freestyle much so

I write 'em like such

Amongst the fiends

Controlled by the screens

What does it all mean

All this shit I'm seein

Human beings scream vocal javelins

Signs of a local nigga unravelin'

My wandering

Got my ass wondering

Where Christ is

In all this crisis

Hatin' Satan

Never knew what nice is

Check the papers

While I bet on Isis

More than your eyes can see

And ears can hear

Year by year

All the sense disappears

Nonsense perseveres

Prayers laced wit fear

Beware

2 triple 0 is near

It might feel good

It might sound a lil' somethin'

But damn the game

If it don't mean nuttin'

What is game who got game

Where's the game

In life

Behind the game

Behind the game

I got game

She got game

We got game

They got game

He got game

It might feel good

It might sound a lil' somethin

But the fuck the game if it ain't saying nothin'

Damn was it somethin I said

Pretend you don't see

So you turn your head

Race scared of it's shadow

Does it matter?

Thought areparations

Got 'em playin' wit the population

Nothing to lose

Everything's approved

People used

Even murders excused

White men in suits

Don't have to jump

Still there's 1001 ways

To lose wit the shoes

God takes care of ol' folks and fools

While the devil takes care

Of makin' the rules

Folks don't even own themselves

Payin mental rent

To corporate presidents

1 outta 1 million residents

Be a dissident

Who ain't kissin' it

The politics of chains and whips

Got the sick

Missin' chips and championships

What's love got to do

Wit what you got

Don't let a win get to your head

Or a loss to your heart

Nonsense perseveres

Prayers heed wit fear

Beware

2 triple 0 is near

It might feel good

It might sound a lil' somethin

But damn the game

If it don't mean nuttin'

What is game who got game

Where's the game

In life

Behind the game

Behind the game

I got game

She got game

We got game

They got game

He got game

It might feel good

It might sound a lil' somethin

But the fuck the game if it ain't saying nothin

Yeah that's right

Everybody got game

But we just here to let you all know

That PE is in full effect

From right now until the year 2000

Hey yo my man sing it

There's something happening yeah

What it is ain't exactly clear

There's a man with a gun over there

Telling me I've got to be ready

It's time we stop chilling

What's that sound

Everybody look what's going down

It's time we stop chilling

What's that sound

Everybody look what's going down

Hey yo these are some serious times that we living through g

And a new world order is about to begin

You know what I'm saying

Now the question is are you ready

For the real revolution

Which is the evolution of the mind

If you seek then you shall find

That we all prove from the divine

You dig what I'm saying

Now if you take heed

To the words of wisdom

That are written on the walls of life

Then universally we will stand

And divided we will fall

Cause love conquers all

You understand what I'm saying

This is a call to all you sleeping souls

Wake up and take control of your own cipher

And be on the look out for the spirits tonight

Trying to steal your light

You know what I'm saying

Look what beside yourself

For peace

Give thanks

Live life

And release

You dig me

You got me
