What Eye Said

[Verse 1: Chuck D] Yeah, It takes a Nation Is it just my hallucination? These microphones designed like war drones Who drop bombs On women, children, and moms Gots the nerve to bring it here in this atmosphere Who really cares? Even those closest near Pickup trucks creatin' fear Who wake up caught, mad at the mirror Woke up with nobody to hear ya With a bad attitude Forget how you look dude Because ugly is under your face, my dude No biggie, I figured Can you rap a verse Without first writing a curse? (Uh) Diamond in the teeth Media beef Diggin' the scene on the shit I'm seeing Hmm [Chorus: Chuck D] What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said [Verse 2: Chuck D] Create fast like you're gonna die tomorrow Posting ain't talking Texting ain't writing Scrolling and reading Grits ain't groceries, cyborg soul Sorta like Rock N' Roll Chess ain't checkers I'm in a world you can only hope to get to Better pray your current world Don't forget you, And let you I'm everywhere and nowhere at the same time Should be a crime Now losing my rhyme 64 bars to memorize Saw a shrink to help me get it hypnotized Hmm [Chorus: Chuck D] What I said What I said What I said What I said [Verse 3: Chuck D] Five fingers of Black Death Hypertension, diabetes, cancer, stress Toxic, worst of everything Bad food fueling the youth, through the tooth Killing middle age Killing OGs too More than street beef and shooting Is it beef stuck in your teeth? What is you doin'? Time is like a river Running like dark liquor on the liver Fix my mouth to deliver Hmm [Chorus: Chuck D] What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said What I said
