Freedom Of Speech Lyrics

Ayo, Ice, man I'm working on this term paper for college What's the First Amendment?
Freedom of Speech, that's some motherfucking bullshit You say the wrong thing, they'll lock your ass up quick The FCC says 'Profanity, no airplay" They can suck my dick while I take a shit all day
Think I give a fuck about some silly bitch named Gore? Yo, PMRC, here we go, raw Yo, Tip, what's the matter? You ain't getting no dick? You're bitching about rock 'n' roll That's censorship, dumb bitch
The Constitution says we all got a right to speak Say what we want, Tip, your argument is weak Censor records, TV, school books too And who decides what's right to hear? You?
Hey, PMRC, you stupid fucking assholes The sticker on the record is what makes 'em sell gold Can't you see, you alcoholic idiots The more you try to suppress us, the larger we get?
(You have the right to remain silent) Fuck that right, I want the right to talk I want the right to speak, I want the right to walk Where I wanna yell and I'm gonna Tell and rebel every time I'm on a
Microphone on the stage, cold illing The knowledge I drop will be heard by millions We ain't the problems, we ain't the villains It's the suckers depriving the truth from our children
You can't hide the fact, Jack There's violence in the streets every day Any fool can recognize that But you try to lie and lie And say America's some motherfucking apple pie
Yo, you gotta be high to believe that You're gonna change the world by a sticker on a record sleeve 'Cos once you take away my right to speak Everybody in the world's up shit creek
Let me tell you about down south Where a motherfucker might as well not even have a mouth Columbus, Georgia, said they'd lock me up If I got on the stage in my show and said 'Fuck'
So I thought for a minute and said no I wasn't even gonna do a damned show 'Cos for me to change my words from my rhymes Is never gonna happen 'cos there's no sellouts on mine
But I vowed to get those motherfuckers one day They even arrested Bobby Brown and Cool J Yo, they got theirs coming 'cos I'm mad and I'm gunning Homeboys and there's no running
I'm gonna tell you how I feel about you No bull, no lies, no slack, just straight fact Columbus, Georgia, you can suck my dick You ain't nothing but a piece of fucking shit On the damned map
Freedom of Speech, let 'em take it from me Next they'll take it from you, then what you gonna do? Let 'em censor books, let 'em censor art PMRC, this is where the witch hunt starts
You'll censor what we see, we read, we hear, we learn The books will burn You better think it out We should be able to say anything Our lungs were meant to shout
Say what we feel, yell out what's real Even though it may not bring mass appeal Your opinion is yours, my opinion is mine If you don't like what I'm saying, fine
But don't close it, always keep an open mind A man who fails to listen is blind We only got one right left in the world today Let me have it or throw The Constitution away
What they're trying to do with radio With this, uh, McCarron-Walter? Act and a lot of other ways Is start by saying that they're protecting the public From wicked rock bands or girlie magazines or whatever
But if you follow the chain of dominoes that falls down What they're really trying to do is shut off Our access to information itself If they can't do it by law They know there's other ways to do it
