Rightstarter Lyrics - Public Enemy

Mind over matter, mouth in motion 

Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet 

Let's start this 

Right 

You spend a buck in the 80's, whatcha you get is a preacher 

Forgivin' this torture of the system that brought cha 

I'm on a mission and you got that right 

Addin' fuel to the fire, punch to the fight 

Many have forgotten what we came here for 

Never knew or had a clue so you're on the floor 

Just growin', not knowin' about your past 

Now you're lookin' pretty stupid while you're shakin' your ass 

Mind over matter, mouth in motion 

Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet 

Let's start this 

Right 

Some people fear me when I talk this way 

Some come near me, some run away 

Some people take heed to every word I say 

Some wanna build a posse, some stay away 

Some people think that we plan to fail 

Wonder why we go under or we go to jail 

Some ask us why we act the way we act 

Without lookin' how long they kept us back 

Mind over matter, mouth in motion 

Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet 

Let's start this 

Right 

Yes, you if I bore you, I won't ignore you 

I'm sayin' things that they say I'm not supposed to 

Give you pride that you may not find 

If you're blind about your past then I'll point behind 

Kings, queens, warriors, lovers 

People, proud sisters and brothers 

Their biggest fear, suckers get tears 

When we can top their best idea 

Mind over matter, mouth in motion 

Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet 

Let's start this 

Right 

Mind revolution, our solution 

Mind over matter, mouth in motion 

Corners don't sell it, no, you can't buy it 

Defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet 

Let's start this 

Right 

Our solution, mind revolution 

Can't sell it, no, you can't buy it in a potion 

You lie about the life that you wanted to try 

Tellin' me about a head you decided to fly 

Another brother with the same woes that you face 

But you shot with the same hands, you fall from grace 

Every brother should be every brother's keeper 

But you shot with your left while your right was on your beeper 

Mind over matter, mouth in motion 

Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet 

Let's start this 

Right 

As the world turns, it's a terrible waste 

To see the stupid look stuck on your face 

Time bomb alarm for the world, just try it 

Known to all zones as the one man riot 

I'm on a mission to set you straight 

Children it's not too late 

Explain to the world when it's plain to see 

To be what the world doesn't want us to be 

Mind over matter, mouth in motion 

Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet 

Let's start this
