What goes on?
Rollin stones of the rap game not braggin'
Lips bigger than jagger, not saggin'
Spell it backwards
I'm a leave it at thatThat ain't got nothin' to do with rap
Check the facts expose those cats
Who pose as heros and take advantage of blacks
Your governments gangster so cut the crap
A war goin' on so where you at?Fight the power comes great responsiblity
F the police but who's stoppin' you from killin' me?
Disasters, fiascos over a loop by pe
If its an I instead of we
Believin' tv
Spittin' riches, bitches, and this new thing about snitches
Watch them asses move the masses switches
System dissed them but barely missed her
My soul intention to save my brothers and sistersGet up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like thatScreamin' gangsta 20 years later
Of course endorsed while consciousness faded
New generations believing them fables
Gangster boogie on two turntablesShow no love so its easy to hate it
Desecrated while the coroner waited
Any given Sunday so where y'all rate it?
Wit slavery, lynching, and them drugs infiltratedI'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 stopRevolution 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
Its a beautiful thingGet up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like thatSo its time to leave you a preview
So you too can review what we do
20 years in this business
How you sell sell soul, g wiz
People bear witness
Thank you for lettin' us be ourself
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 life love like you just don't care
5000 leaders never scared
Bring the noise its the moment they fear
Get up still a beautiful ideaGet up
Throw yo hands in the air
Get up show no fear
Get up if y'all really care
Pe 20 years
Now get upGet up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like that
Get up
Hard just like that
