Race Against Time Songtext
von Public Enemy

Everybody over here, get on up
Everybody right there, get into it
Everybody over there, get involved
Everybody, get involved, get involved

Microphone check, microphone check
Can I get a check up from the neck up
Can I kick a rhyme while I′m checkin' my time
Can I get a cure ′cause you did da crime for sure

You're probably killin' me with these shots
Tell me what I got and I′m gone
Pandemic, who did it?
Right, who did it? That′s who did it
WHO, World Health Organized
Murderized

Came to the aid, got paid
Doctor, doctor in a lab
Concoct a germ, warfare to the booty
I rocked it


105 million goin' down in the ground
Most in the black and the brown
Ow!
How did I catch this riddle, if I didn′t crossover like a Hardaway dribble?

They blamed it on some green African monkey
Now, ain't that funky?
While the clock is doing the tick and the tock
I didn′t know that the guns aimed and cocked on us
Ah (on us, on us)

We're runnin′ outta
Time, time (time)
Time, time (time)

Time, time (time)
Time, time (time)
Time, time
Go on

Time, time
Come on
Time, time (time)
Time


Testing, one, two (time)
Testing, one, two
Can I get a blood check, testing one, two
Can I get a witness? (Yes, you can)
Can I get a witness? (Yes, yes, you can)
Then check it

I'm checking records and facts
About the battle to the Indian, Japanese
The Whites and the Blacks
Germs they spread it
Warfare I read it
Quote me on this again, and I said it

A bigger damage than the trigger and glocks
A mass murder in mass from a blanket full of small pox
No guarantees getting lesser fees
Tuskegee hell is going out
With disease

Please (check the time)
C'mon (check the rhyme)
Tribe a mine killed by da swine
Who crossed the line?
Who did the crime?
The mind of a world destroying kind

Runnin′ outta
Time, time (time)
Time, time (time)

Time, time (time)
Time, time
Go on

Time, time
Go on
Time, time (time)
Time, time (time)

Time, time (time)
Time

A little piece of my mind
While we running outta time
People of color goin′ out like no other kind
Mad drama genetic gettin' wreck

Protect your neck, check the epidemic
Drug use, addiction and murder
I heard a pregnancy
Infant mortality

Rest in poverty, not peace, disease till deceased
Sterilized, realized that beast
So here′s a word to the wise

They got us runnin' outta
Time, time (time)
Time, time (time)

Time, time (time)
Time, time
Go on

Time, time
Time
Time, time
Hey

Time, time (time)
Time, time
Yeah
Time, time
Yeah

Time, time
Yeah
Time, time (time)
Time, time (time)

Time, time
Yeah
Time, time

Ay
Time, time
Ay
Time, time (time)
Time (time)
Yeah, time

Boy, you need to check that alarm clock and wake up earlier (lead me on)
