Black Steel In The Hour Of Chaos

Public Enemy

I got a letter from the government



The other day



I opened and read it



It said they were suckers



They wanted me for their army or whatever



Picture me given' a damn I said never



Here is a land that never gave a damn



About a brother like me and myself



Because they never did



I wasn't wit' it but just that very minute...

And I never did, and plus I never been



I'm on a tier where no tears should ever fall
