Game Face Lyrics - Public Enemy

Hey yo, chuck, yo the world if sleepin', G 

We got to wake everybody up yo 

Hey yo, it's goin' down, baby 

Let everybody know how it's goin' down, baby 

The way this goes down is simple, from this day forth 

Anything to deal with rap, stay off 

It's just the players, no pay offs, strictly skills 

(Uh) 

If you're brain's the same you'll stick to your deals 

And this field ain't about sellin' a mil' 

With the run of the mill, so just be tellin' the real 

It ain't like a third time fella's appeal 

'Til the God scolds him and tells him to deal 

I'll allow you to write, maybe allow you to bite 

If you're down to fight the power here's the power to fight 

Overpower the mic, hit the crowd with the bomb diggy 

Ring the alarm, now the squads with me 

From way back I show now weakness when I speak this 

Mentally strong to keep this hit in my speeches given 

Now listen from the beginnin' 'til I reach the endin' 

My short stories winnin' and keep the beats spinnin' 

You know the name, P.E. 

You know the game, P.E. 

We ain't for the fame 

We for the change 

I wake up everyday with my game face on 

You know the name, P.E. 

You know the game, P.E. 

We ain't for the fame 

We for the change 

I wake up everyday with my game face on 

Break harder than ever, follow my lead 

Through the fast lane in the game, they follow my speed 

Either ease off the gas or floor it 

You ain't ready to get it, I dunno why they keep askin' for it 

This the real P.E., ain't no castin' for it 

Cop lights, news camera, no action for it 

Get the uncut raw, we somewhat sure 

Hip hop's like a chess game, discussin' the war 

Strategize, move like masterminds 

When it's your go and your do', just cash mine 

Last time we welcomed y'all to the terror dome 

Used the mic to reach out and touch, instead of the phone 

I appear from the rear, stayin' from clear 

Nobody can say if I'm here so they play it by ear 

But here's the way I lay the idea 

From this point on, the rest of '98, put it in high gear 

You know the name, P.E. 

You know the game, P.E. 

We ain't for the fame 

We for the change 

I wake up everyday with my game face on 

You know the name, P.E. 

You know the game, P.E. 

We ain't for the fame 

We for the change 

I wake up everyday with my game face on 

I saw it comin', premeditated world domination hesitated 

Rough this nuclear war head, detonate it 

I'm forbidden, so I stay hittin' up forgiven 

For givin' the livin' the truth, 360 proof 

So world look before this world's took 

I curl books under my arm 

Smoke charm and learn about this world's chucks 

Revelation the world cooks, I spit gold versus the pearl hooks 

The first album made the world crooks 

Got 'em snatchin', robbin', thievin', stealin' ideas 

Believe in pleadin' reason for treason, conceal it for years 

My criminal thing attract an accomplice to grub something 

Results drastic measures 

And the death of joy, the death of casket treasure 

From the abyss, the greatest trick I played on the world 

Was leadin' them to believe my mother's clit didn't exist 

Then I extended the list 

Revolutioned every flag raised by a clenchin' fist 

Yeah that's right, once again 

Smooth the hustler, and he ain't no crowd buster 

Straight up Iceberg slim 

Yo, baby, you need to get with him 

Flava flav, Chuck D, Public Enemy, smooth the hustle 

We out the back door, baby
