(feat. Ziggy Marley)
I occupy
The planet earth
I testify
Its a piece of woirk
I'm gratified
Down to the dirt
Been around the world a few times
So I seen the hurt
Quakes hurricanes and tornados
Warning times to mans designs
Under that concrete
Yall call the street
The heart of land
You can hear the beat
Pain of all the lies
Pain in all them lives
Pain of losin homes
Pain of the unknown
Pain of what you spent
Pain of government
No matter what you say
You don't pay
Here they come to take it away
Don't give up the fight [2x]
Foreign lands and the 7 seas
Radiation is the worlds disease
Bringing nations down to the knees
Mother nature she ain't pleased
Trees diseased
Deep freeze
Doin us like that govt cheese
Smell that burning in the breeze
Summertime 120 degrees
Pain of all the lies
Pain in all them lives
Pain of losin homes
Pain of the unknown
Pain of what you spent
Pain of government
No matter what you say
You don't pay
Here they come to take it away
Don't give up
Don't give up the fight [2x]
So shut em down
In appreciation
Of the world itself
And gods creation
What good is the hood if you up to no good
Them govt gangsters would hang you on wood
Stop the tape
My minds stuck in 68
Haight asbury
Now our ass buried in hate
I paraphrase
Beyond the gaze
A haze hovers over a crowd that disobeys
Staying rich off them so called better days
Do I do a song for the masses
Besides whats moving them asses
I make stew out of the ashes
Public Enemy is an American hip hop group formed in 1982 in Long Island, New York. Considered one of the most influential groups in the history of the genre, they are known for their political and social approach to rap, with lyrics that denounce systemic racism and social injustices. Influenced by artists like Curtis Mayfield and Gil Scott-Heron, Public Enemy carried on the tradition of 'message music' incorporating elements of funk, jazz, and rock into their music. The group primarily consists of Chuck D (vocals), Flavor Flav (co-vocals and percussion) and Professor Griff (political advisor). Among their most representative songs are "Fight the Power", "Bring the Noise" and "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos". Public Enemy has released numerous successful albums, including "It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back" (1988) and "Fear of a Black Planet" (1990), both considered masterpieces of the genre. Their cultural impact has been enormous, contributing to defining hip-hop as a political and social force.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
