Caught, Can We Get A Witness?

Caught Can We Get A Witness - Public Enemy

Caught now in court 'cause I stole a beat

This is a samplin' sport

But I'm givin' it a new name

What you hear is mine P E you know the time

Now what in the heaven does a jury know about hell

If I took it but they just look at me

Like hey I'm on a mission

Check it out y'all conditions

Ain't right sittin' like dynamite

Gonna blow you up and it just might

Blow up the bench and

Judge the courtroom plus I gotta mention

This court is dismissed when I grab the mike

Yo Flav what is this

Get hyped c'mon we gotta

Gather †round gotcha

Mail from the courts and jail

Claims I stole the beats that I rail

Look at how I'm livin' like

And they're gonna check the mike right Sike

C'mon †coz I'm livin' now lower than low

What a sucker know

Found this mineral

That I call a beat paid zero

Packed my load 'cause it's better than gold

People don't ask the price but it's sold

They say that I sample

But they should sample this my pit bull

We ain't goin' for this they say that I stole this

Can I get a witness

Understand where we're goin'

Then listen to this plus my Roland

Comin' from down from below

Rebound c'mon boost up the stereo

Snakes in the mornin'

Wake up scared afraid of my warnin'

They claim that I'm violent

Now I choose to be silent

Can I get a witness

Ignorance is at a all time high

Yo Chuck I think they need to educated

S1 take a stand

Yo Judge tell us gon' kick it

C'mon get wit' it

Somethin' ain't right I got to admit it

Made me mad when I was on tour

That I declared war on Black Radio

They say that I planned this

On the radio most of you will demand this

Won't be on a playlist

'Coz of the way that I say this no sell out

Fellas you think we gon' sell out No man

I said do you think we gon' sell out No

Just †coz we in court

Yo Flav you think we gon' sell out

I know if we do we gon' get the hell out

Yo Griff you and the S1 you think we gon' sell out

No not this day in time my brother

Terminator X hey do you think we gonna sell out

You singers are spineless

As you sing your senseless songs to the mindless

Your general subject love is minimal

It's sex for profit

Scream that I sample

Example Tom you ran to the Federal

Court in U S it don't mean you

Yeah 'cause they fronted on you

The posse's ready Terminator X yes he's ready

The S1W Griff are you ready Yo Chuck we ready man

C'mon y'all

Hey they say that we stole this

I rebel with a raised fist

Can we get a witness
