[Sample] Live it up [Verse 1: Chuck D] Two fingers up Mother earth screwed up Beautiful scenery Betray that scenery Pray to machinery Tombstone cowboy Start where your head at Some wanna shout Some gotta cut Some get caught Many fought Untaught Get ‘em in court Save my hood But what good is my hood When God say it’s no good? It’s no good when its no God Know God [Hook: Sample, Flavor Flav] Give peace a damn Or we don’t stand a chance Give a damn [Sample] Live it up [Verse 2: Chuck D] I get like Mingus Ain’t askin' y'all to sing this Every hood is the same The only difference is the slang Deeds of evil Game changers Upheaval Evil salutations To your mutations Lotta nerve To say you disturbed Guess who’s coming to dinner The same folks who picked your dinner It don't sound like a winnin' Only just the beginning Respect the beginning Peace to the world we all living in it
