3. I Am The Man '91
1. Bring The Noise
Bass!
How low can you go?
Death row, what a brother knows
Once again back is the incredible
The rhyme animal
The young* cannibal*, D, Public Enemy, number one
"Five-O" said, "Freeze!" and I got numb
Can I tell 'em that I really never had a gun
But it's the wax that the terminator x spun
Now they got me in a cell 'cause my records, they sell
Cause a brother like me said, "Well...
...Farrakahn's a prophet and I think you ought to listen to
what he can say to you, what you ought to do"
Follow for now, power of the people, say,
"Make a miracle, D, pump the lyrical"
Black is back, all in, we're gonna win
Check it out, yeah y'all c'mon, here we go again
Turn it up! Bring the noise
Never badder than bad 'cause the brother is madder than mad
At the fact that's corrupt like* a senator
Soul on a roll, but you treat it like soap on a rope
Cause the beats in the lines are so dope
Listen for lessons I'm saying inside music
That the critics are blasting me for
They'll never care for the brothers and sisters now across
The country has us up for the war
We got to demonstrate, come on now, they're gonna have to wait,
'till we get it right
Radio stations I question their blackness
They call themselves black, but we'll see if they'll play this
Turn it up, Bring the noise
Get from in front of me, the crowd runs to me
My deejay is warm, he's X, I call him Norm ya know
He can cut a record from side to side
So what, the ride, the glide should be much safer than a suicide
Soul control, beat is the father of your rock 'n' roll
Music for whatcha, for whichin', you call a band man
Makin' a music, abuse it, but you can't do it, ya know
You call'em demos, but we ride limos too
Whatcha gonna do? Rap is not afraid of you
Beat is for Sonny Bono, beat is for Yoko Ono
Run-DMC first said a deejay could be a band
Stand on it's own feet, get you out your seat
Beat is for Eric B and L. L. as well, hell
Wax is for Anthrax, still I can rock bells ever
Forever, Universal it will sell
Time for me to exit, Terminator X-it
Turn it up, Bring the noise
From coast to coast, so you stop being like a comatose
Stand my man? The beat's the same with a boost-toast
Rock with some pizzazz, it will last, why you ask?
Roll with the rock stars, you'll never get accepted as
We got to plead the fifth, we can investigate
Don't need to wait, get the record straight
Hey, posse's in effect, got Flavor, Terminator
X to sign checks, play to get paid
We got to check it out down on the avenue
A magazine or two is dissing me and dissing you
Yeah, I'm telling you...
2. Keep It In The Family (live)
Mankind,
The Public Enemy's Not the Man Who Speaks His Mind
The Public Enemy's the Man That Goes and Acts Blind
Searching for an Answer That He'll Never Find
An Action from Reaction and You Can't Make a Retraction
Once You've Put Your Head out
And Then You're Blue in the Face,
As You Try to State Your Case
You Can Think with Your Dick but it Can't Shout
Yo
I Try to Understand What the Hell Is Going on
I Can't Imagine How Things Ever Got So Far Gone
You Separatists, Say You Want Your Own State
I'll Give Them a State, a State of Unconsciousness
Retribution, No Solution, Constitution
Discrimination, Through the Nation, Raining Hatred
I Yell, When There's Schism You must Rebel
I Yell, So You'll Hear
I Yell, I Refuse to Live in Your Hell
I Am What You Fear
I'm the Truth, I Don't Keep it in the Family
Live Your Life, Take Someone Else
Keep it in the Family
The Real World's Outside Your Door
You Can't Keep it in the Family
You've Got the Longest Way to Fall
Keep it in The, Keep it in The, Keep it in the
Family
Don't Even Try to Tell Me What You Think Is Right
When to You Blacks Are Niggers, and Jews Are Kikes
And You Expect to Be Taken Seriously
But Your Actions, They're More than Curiously.
Juvenile, You Emulate What You Hate
And You Don't Even Know Why You Feel this Way
'Cause Daddy Hated This, and Mommy Hated That
And Your Own Ability to Reason's like a Tire Gone Flat
Yo.
I Try to Understand What the Hell Is Going on
I Can't Imagine How Things Ever Got So Far Gone
You Separatists, Say You Want Your Own State
I'll Give Them a State, a State of Unconsciousness
Retribution, No Solution, Constitution
Discrimination, Through the Nation, Raining Hatred
I Yell, When There's Schism You must Rebel
I Yell, So You'll Hear
I Yell, I Refuse to Live in Your Hell
I Am What You Fear
I'm the Truth, I Don't Keep it in the Family
Live Your Life, Take Someone Else
Keep it in the Family
The Real World's Outside Your Door
You Can't Keep it in the Family
You've Got the Longest Way to Fall
When You Keep it in The, When You Keep it in the
When You Keep it in the Family
When You Keep it in The, When You Keep it in the
When You Keep it in the Family
Acting out of Pure Cold Hatred
'Cause of What Another's Race Is
Color of Another's Face Is
Different, and Your Own Frustrations
Taking on a Violent Nature
Full of Hate, So Full of Hate
You'd Kill a Man Is That Your Fate
Your Street Becomes a Police State
Why the Hell Do You Hate?!
Hate, Hate, Hate, Hate, Hate, Hate, Hate, Hate
Hate, Hate!!!
I'm Not Gonna Stand for it
Someone's Gonna Pay for it
I Yell, We Rebel
We're the Truth and We Won't Keep it in the Family
Live Your Life, Take Someone Else
Keep it in the Family
The Real World's Outside Your Door
You Can't Keep it in the Family
You've Got the Longest Way to Fall
Keep it in the Family
I'm the Thing That You Most Fear
I Don't Keep it in the Family
I Am the Truth You Won't Hear
Keep it in the Family
The Real World's Outside Your Door
You Can't Keep it in the Family
You've Got the Longest Way to Fall
Keep it in the Family
3. I Am The Man '91
Fifteen years in the academy
He was like no cadet they'd ever seen
A man so hard, his veins bleed ice
And when he speaks he never says it twice
They call him Judge, his last name is Dredd
So break the law, and you wind up dead
Truth and justice are what he's fighting for
Judge Dredd the man, he is the law
DROKK IT!
With gun and bike he rules the streets
And every perp he meets will taste defeat
Not even Death can overcome his might
Cause Dredd and Anderson, they won the fight
When the Sov's started the Apocalypse war
Mega-City was bombed to the floor
Dredd resisted, and the judges fought back
Crushed the Sov's with their counter-attack
DROKK IT!
Respect the badge - he earned it with his blood
Fear the gun - your sentence may be death because...
Chorus
I AM THE LAW!
And you won't fuck around no more - I AM THE LAW
I judge the rich, I judge the poor - I AM THE LAW
Commit a crime I'll lock the door - I AM THE LAW
Because in Mega-City... I AM THE LAW
In the cursed earth where mutants dwell
There is no law, just a living hell
Anarchy and chaos as the blood runs red
But this would change if it was up to Dredd
The book of law is the bible to him
And any crime committed is a sin
He keeps the peace with his law-giver
Judge, jury, and executioner
DROKK IT!
CRIME - The ultimate sin
Your iso-cube is waiting when he brings you in
LAW - It's what he stands for
Crime's his only enemy and he's going to war
CRIME - The ultimate sin
Your ISO-cube is waiting when he brings you in
LAW - It's what he stands for
Crime's his only enemy and he's going to war
