make it hardcore

public enemy

ain't that a bitch

i heard somebody think

rap is dead cause people runnin out of shit to say

so ridiculous and so absurd

i was almost at a loss for words

then i started to serve

off the line of the enemy's mind

back in 2005 droppin hammers without the time

bring the ruckus from the booth to the hood

motherfucker cause it ain't all good

now i wish they would

get yo' vest on

we rain on babylon

the anti-fox news

anti-pop

original group

p and the enemy policin the beast

until we rise it'll never be peace

i put that on jesus

back with vocals

no whack shit

no glory focus

no gimmick tracks

just hard truth and rough raps

plus that gear that keep 'em fearin the crime

makin sure brothers knowin the time

that's why it ain't no smilin

see the army as they're snatchin us up

yeah

at yo' high school

promisin what?

better recognize the bling of the murder machine

that's why it's meaning in the words when we serve and ask you to think

who the whores that embed with the swords

who the ones pimp us all sellin death for murder dog

the imagery is dead-ly so what the fuck?

interscope ah better hope we never knowin and bringin the ruckus

like nas said

it's a coon parade

yeah

bitch niggaz goin out all day

we pullin guns on uncle tom to bomb on viacom

it's on

long as needed we competin keep-keepin it strong

ain't no in my as long as they sell the black out

i grip my shit and blow your back out

we act out

cause you know we reppin the cause

still a never needin a

i check drawers for balls

]

whatever it takes to make it hardcore!

whatever it takes to make it hardcore!

whatever it takes to make it hardcore!

whatever it takes to make it hardcore!

soul survivors

now tell me who can bring it liver

it's p.e. still beatin the beast

in this game of latecomers

fake friends and flakes

and grown men actin like teenagers

we raisin the stakes

what'cha know about words i throw around

when i say it loud better know that i'm black and i'm proud

take a look around and see the way they keepin the realest from reachin

but i bet you never hear it again

naw

clear channel never heat it again

it never fit into the corporate plan of attack

they genocidal practices only givin us murder on wax"
