Tie Goes To The Runner

Public Enemy · Other Songs - Public Enemy

Here a track I found underneath



Findin' beats is a treat



An' I don't care if it top pop



Abracadabra can't keep a tab a



This stickin' around like D an' it stuck Chuck



Into a mode, unloadin' pop, pop, pop



Go the weasels that dropped from the hip hop



Kissin' the good bye



Goin' goin' gone



Keep it flowin' on



Like a lemon I ain't livin'



Like a lime here's a line



To those here's a rose keep the casket closed



Gone and in check



The next is from the X



Wrecked and affected by the rest huh



How I'm gonna go I gotta flow



'Cause they figure I'm a gonna



Tie goes to the runner



Politikin' I be wreckin'



I reckon he's the electrician



Pullin' the switches on brothers



Who be in disposition



I never got along wit' the long



Arm of the law



I saw where they place the hardcore



To them it doesn't matter



Where it splatter



Our blood from the bullet



Not ballot I vote for Jim Brown



I know it don't rhyme



Does it matter that he



In fact he won't find



Excuses inside of Murphy Brown



I'm on a level livin' low



Here we go I know



If this was Africa I'd try to give a necktie



To those runnin' and lyin' disguisin'



Three guys (surprise)



Tie goes to the runner



Not surprised at all



About the riot zone



And I moan



I wish they leave me alone yo



This was predicted not self-inflicted



By the rapp outta the 'hood



They picked it good



Hittin' heavy critical aim at all the phony names



Prez rembezzlers



Who gettin' voted mayor



Lookin' at 'em wit' an



Evil eye (why lie)



I don't buy the fly look



As the fall guy



I'm livin' low across the tracks



Politikin' who stickin' had better



Watch their backs



In another long hot summer



Tie goes to the runner



An' I quote



I freak da notes



I double the dose



All she wrote



Devour got the power of a double man



Get excited just don't bite it or you're in trouble man



Got a rhythm to ride



A thought provoke



'Cause I don't joke



Here's a brother wit' an attitude



Don't get me rude



Chew it up wass up it's like food
