By , May 30, 2012


“Fight the power” single by Public Enemy from the album ‘Do the Right Thing and Fear of a Black Planet’ [1989] 1989 the number another summer (get down) Sound of the funky drummer Music hittin’ your heart cause I know you got sould (Brothers and sisters, hey) Listen if you’re missin’ y’all Swingin’ while I’m singin’ Givin’ whatcha gettin’ Knowin’ what I know While the Black bands sweatin’ And the rhythm rhymes rollin’ Got to give us what we want Gotta give us what we need Our freedom of speech is freedom or death We got to fight the powers that be Lemme hear you say Fight the power Chorus As the rhythm designed to bounce What counts is that the rhymes Designed to fill your mind Now that you’ve realized the prides arrived We got to pump the stuff to make us tough from the heart It’s a start, a work of art To revolutionize make a change nothin’s strange People, people we are the same No we’re not the same Cause we don’t know the game What we need is awareness, we can’t get careless You say what is this? My beloved lets get down to business Mental self defensive fitness (Yo) bum rush the show You gotta go for what you know Make everybody see, in order to fight the powers that be Lemme hear you say… Fight the Power Chorus Elvis was a hero to most But he never meant shit to me you see Straight up racist that sucker was Simple and plain Mother fuck him and John Wayne Cause I’m Black and I’m proud I’m ready and hyped plus I’m amped Most of my heroes don’t appear on no stamps

    I’ve thought of a thousand ways to say this, but it’s so damn hard.
    
    Honestly, most of you don’t care that I’m a 19 y/o dude who raps & dreams of making music.

    But I care, and I want it more than anything else.

    I WRITE songs. I don’t do covers like everyone else. (What a rebel)

    So if you could please care long enough to check me out, all you have to do is click on my name. Please, give me a chance.

    You could even just chuck this comment a thumb. It would fill my day with joy

    Vile Indian Patels and Caucasian thieves with stolen Nazi Mind Technologies are inside the minds of people for ultracovert extortion and theft! Hip hop has just being a gimmick for black Americans to keep them amused and occupied while mother of control of slavery is impacted on the vulnerable fun minds of blacks!

    @MrDjoyahs Agreed.

  19. MrDjoyahs says:

    I Agree! All of his fans are so arogant and think that they’re so fucking smarter than everyone else
