We like those gangsta rhymes...
Just make sure they don't corrupt our minds...
These rappers kill and thief...
A lot of times it's only make believe...
Once upon a time, not long ago
A rapper got shot, and no one knows
Who pulled the trigga on the kid and layed him in his grave
And after the prayers and the street parade
Shit got forgot, and now he's dead
And all the fans loved everything he said
So understand this, you don't wanna miss
Sex, drugs, and violence
We like those gangsta rhymes...
Just make sure they don't corrupt our minds...
These rappers kill and thief...
A lot of times it's only make believe...
Hey yo once upon a time in Jamaica, Queens
An icon gets shot and no one knew what it means
It was just another murder scene
But let's get on with the bling bling
Ching ching and half naked chicks that can't sing
Murder weapon, never found. Police, never around
The respect, the intellect, and the suspect all out of town
It's all out of bounds. KRS, Chuck D makin our rounds, man
While they takin us down, man
We're takin you down. I got another new sound
It's really an old sound, but you know how me and Chuck get down
We got peace, love, unity, and having the fun
But you all want sex, drugs, violence 101
Here it is... Bam
Stop being a little boy with a little toy, stand up and be a man
Now you see the plan, from west to east
Instead of sex, drugs, and violence we got love, purpose, and peace
We be hurtin the least. We be workin, no seats
Bringing it to America like Geronimo and Cochise
Get that, but make sure when you spit rap
If you ain't really ready to die, yo, don't spit that!
We like those gangsta rhymes...
Just make sure they don't corrupt our minds...
These rappers kill and thief...
A lot of times it's only make believe...
Once upon a time I was on Long Island
A man got shot and he wasn't smilin
He was bleedin from his guts, yo
A policeman was sittin and he drove up on the spot, yo
Now when police light came on
When the man died, who was the blame on?
Wasn't me. Not you
I didn't kill nobody 'cause my records don't do that
I make the records for the kids
Gangsta rap flippin people's kid's lids
We like those gangsta rhymes...
Just make sure they don't corrupt our minds...
These rappers kill and thief...
A lot of times it's only make believe...
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.
