[Intro: Flavor Flav]
Yo, Chuck, bust a move, man!
I was on my way up here to the studio, ya know what I'm sayin'?
And this brother stop me and axe 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 kickin' 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.

[Verse 1: Chuck D]
Rolling Stones of the rap game, not braggin',
Lips bigger than Jagger, not saggin',
Spell it backwards, Imma leave it at that,
That ain't got nuttin to do with rap.
Check the facts, expose those cats,
who pose as heroes and 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 stopping you from killin' me?
Disaster, fiascos over a loop by P.E.,
If it's an 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!

[Hook: x4]
Hard, (Get up!)
Just like that!

[Interlude: Flavor Flav]
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!

[Verse 2: Chuck D]
Screamin gangsta twenty years later,
Of course endorsed while consciousness faded,
New generation believin' them fables.
"Gangster Boogie" on two turntables,
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,
I'm like that doll, Chuckie baby.
Keep comin' back to live, love life, like I'm crazy,
Keep it movin', risin' to the top,
Doug Fresh clean livin', you don't stop.
Revolution means change, don't look at me strange,
So I can't repeat what other rappers be sayin'.
You don't stand for something, you fall for anything,
Harder than you think, it's a beautiful thing!

[Hook: x4]

[Interlude]

[Verse 3: Chuck D]
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,
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,
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.

[Hook: x4]

Get up! Throw yo hands in the air!
Get up and show no fear!
Get up if y'all really care!
P.E., 20 years, now get up!

[Outro: Flavor Flav]
Yeah, that's right.
