Welcome To The Terrordome Lyrics - Fear Of A Black Planet - Public Enemy

I got so much trouble on my mind 

Refuse to lose 

Here's your ticket 

Hear the drummer get wicked 

The crew to you to push the back to Black 

Attack so I sack and jack 

Then slapped the Mac 

Now I'm ready to mic it 

(You know I like it) huh 

Hear my favoritism roll "Oh" 

Never be a brother like me go solo 

Laser, anesthesia, maze ya 

Ways to blaze your brain and train ya 

The way I'm living, forgiven 

What I'm giving up 

X on the flex, hit me now 

I don't know about later 

As for now, I know how to avoid the paranoid 

Man, I've had it up to here 

Gear I wear got 'em going in fear 

Rhetoric said and 

Read just a bit ago 

Not quitting, though 

Signed the hard rhymer 

Work to keep from getting jerked 

Changing some ways 

To way back in the better days 

Raw metaphysically bold 

Never followed a code 

Still dropped a load 

Never question what I am God knows 

Cause it's coming from the heart 

What I got better get some 

(Get on up) hustler of culture 

Snakebitten 

Been spit in the face 

But the rhymes keep fitting 

Respects been giving how's ya living 

Now I can't protect a paid off defect 

Check the record 

And reckon an intentional wreck 

Played off as some intellect 

Made the call, took the fall 

Broke the laws 

Not my fault that they're falling off 

Known as fair square 

Throughout my years 

So I growl at the living foul 

Black to the bone my home is your home 

So welcome to the Terrordome 

Subordinate terror 

Kicking off an era 

Cold delivering pain 

My 98 was 87 on a record yo 

So now I go Bronco 

Crucifixion ain't no fiction 

So-called chosen frozen 

Apology made to whoever pleases 

Still they got me like Jesus 

I rather sing, bring, think, reminisce 

'Bout a brother while I'm in sync 

Every brother ain't a brother cause a color 

Just as well could be undercover 

Backstabbed, grabbed a flag 

From the back of the lab 

Told a Rab get off the rag 

Sad to say I got sold down the river 

Still some quiver when I deliver 

Never to say I never know or had a clue 

Word was Herb, plus hard on the boulevard 

Lies, scandalizin', basing 

Traits of hate who's celebrating with Satan? 

I rope-a-dope the evil with righteous 

Bobbing and weaving and let the good get even 

C'mon down 

But welcome to the Terrordome 

Caught in the race against time 

The pit and the pendulum 

Check the rhythm and rhymes 

While I'm bending 'um 

Snakes blowing up the lines of design 

Trying to blind the science I'm sending 'em 

How to fight the power 

Cannot run and hide 

But it shouldn't be suicide 

In a game a fool without the rules 

Got a hell of a nerve to just criticize 

Every brother ain't a brother 

Cause a Black hand 

Squeezed on Malcolm X the man 

The shooting of Huey Newton 

From a hand of a Nig who pulled the trig 

It's weak to speak and blame somebody else 

When you destroy yourself 

First nothing's worse than a mother's pain 

Of a son slain in Bensonhurst 

Can't wait for the state to decide the fate 

So this jam I dedicate 

Places with the racist faces 

Example of one of many cases 

The Greek weekend speech I speak 

From a lesson learned in Virginia (Beach) 

I don't smile in the line of fire 

I go wildin' 

But it's on bass and drums and even violins 

Watcha do gitcha head ready 

Instead of getting physically sweaty 

When I get mad 

I put it down on a pad 

Give ya something that cha never had 

Controlling 

Fear of high rolling 

God bless your soul and keep living 

Never allowed, kicking it loud 

Dropping a bomb 

Brain game intellectual Vietnam 

Move as a team 

Never move alone 

But 

Welcome to the Terrordome
