Louder Than a Bomb

They claim we're products from the bottom of hell

Cause the black is back and it's bound to sell

Picture us cooling out on the Fourth of July

And if you heard we were celebrating, that's a worldwide lie

Yo Chuck, the fat generals man, trying to pull a 226 on you, G! Yo man, show 'em what you got!

[Verse 1: Chuck D]

This style seems wild

Wait before you treat me like a stepchild

Let me tell you why they got me on file

Cause I give you what you lack, come right and exact

Our status is the saddest so I care where you at, black

And at home I got a call from Tony Rome

The FBI was tappin' my telephone

I never live alone, I never walk alone

My posse's always ready, and they're waitin' in my zone

Although I live the life that of a resident

But I be knowin' the scheme that of the president

Tappin' my phone whose crews abused

I stand accused of doing harm, cause I'm louder than a bomb

[Hook]

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

[Verse 2]

I am a rock hard trooper to the bone, the bone, the bone

Full grown, consider me - stone

Once again and I say it for you to know

The troop is always ready, I yell "Geronimo!"

Your CIA, you see I ain't kiddin'

Both King and X they got rid of both

A story untold, true but unknown

Professor Griff knows, "Yo, I ain't milquetoast!"

And not the braggin' or boastin' and plus it ain't no secret

Why they're tappin' my phone, although I can't keep it a secret

So I decided to kick it, yo

And yes it weighs a ton, I say it once again

I'm called the enemy, I'll never be a friend

Of those with closed minds, don't know I'm rapid

The way that I rap it Is makin' 'em tap it, yeah

Never servin' 'em well, cause I'm an un-Tom

It's no secret at all 'cause I'm louder than a bomb

[Hook]

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!) (Yeah!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

(It's yours!)

[Verse 3]

Cold holdin' the load, the burden breakin' the mold

I ain't lyin' denyin', cause they're checkin' my code

Am I buggin' cause they're buggin' my phone - for information

No tellin' who's sellin' out - power buildin' the nation so

Joinin' the set, the point blank target

Every brothers inside, so least not, you forget, no

Takin' the blame is not a waste, here taste

A bit of the song so you can never be wrong

Just a bit of advice, cause we be payin' the price

Cause every brother mans life is like swingin' the dice, right?

Here it is, once again this is the brother to brother

The Terminator, the cutter

Goin' on an' on - leave alone the grown

Get it straight in '88, an' I'll troop it to demonstrate

The posse always ready - 98 at 98

My posse come quick, because my posse got velocity

Tappin' my phone, they never leave me alone

I'm even lethal when I'm unarmed

Cause I'm louder than a bomb

[Hook]

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!) (Yeah!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

Come on, come on (Louder!)

(Right)

[Verse 4]

Cause the D is for dangerous

You can come and get some of this

I teach and speak

So when its spoke, it's no joke

The voice of choice, the place shakes with bass

Called one for the treble

The rhythm is the rebel

Here's a funky rhyme that they're tappin' on

Just thinkin' I'm breakin' the beats I'm rappin' on

CIA, FBI, all they tell us is lies

And when I say it, they get alarmed

Cause I'm louder than a bomb
