Listen, stream, mp3 download, read the lyrics, buy Public Enemy’s most recent song titled “State Of The Union (STFU)”. The song was produced by DJ Premier.
After a publicized disagreement that threatened the harmony of Public Enemy as we know it turned out to be an elaborate April Fool’s Joke, Chuck D and Flava Flav have once again connected with a shared purpose. To destroy Donald Trump’s dignity to the best of their ability. Given that the legendary duo have been speaking on societal issues since their inception in the mid-eighties, it’s not exactly surprising to see them answering the call once again. This time, they’ve put together “State Of The Union (STFU),” calling upon the capable hand of DJ Premier to hold down the production.
“Nazi, Gestapo, dictator defender,” spits Chuck D, amidst a heated anti-Trump salvo. “It’s not what you think, it’s what you follow / run for them jewels, drink from that bottle / another four years going to gut ya’ll hollow.” As for Flava Flav, he opts to keep his contributions as blunt and straightforward as possible: “shut the fuck up, sorry-ass muthafucka, stay away from me!” All the while, Preem fuels the fire with some deadly scratches, adding the final touch of nostalgia to the mix. Check out the new video right here, which was shot “in the dead of night” by a very much active Public Enemy.
Public Enemy – State Of The Union (STFU) (prod. DJ Premier)
Lyrics
[Intro: Flavor Flav]
Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go!
(Run-DMC: We Have…)
[Verse 1: Chuck D]
Whatever it takes, rid this dictator
POTUS my tail, Ass debater
Prime-time Preemo, rhyme-time crime
Like no other in this lifetime
White house killer, dead in lifelines
Vote this joke out, or die tryin’
Unprecedented, demented, many president’d
Nazi gestapo dictator defended
It’s not what you think it’s what you follow
Run for them jewels, drink from that bottle
Another four years gonna gut y’all hollow
Gutted out, dried up, broke and can’t borrow
[Chorus: Flavor Flav & Chuck D]
State of the Union
Shut the fuck up
Sorry ass motherfucker
Stay away from me
State of the Union

Sorry ass motherfucker
Stay away from me

Shut the fuck up
Sorry ass motherfucker
Stay away from me

[Verse 2: Chuck D]
Mister, I am the law & you are not
In fact, I’m god, I got a lot
Mister these united breaks takeover come over
Orange hair fear the comb-over
Here’s another scare, keep them hands in the air
Better not breathe you dare not dare
Don’t say anything don’t think nothing
Make America great again the middle just love it
When he wanna talk Walk y’all straight to them ovens
Human beings of color, yeah we be sufferin’
[Chorus: Flavor Flav & Chuck D]

[Verse 3: Chuck D]
Better rock that vote or vote for hell
Real generals now not some USFL
Not a fuckin’ game, I dare not mention his name
Operation 45 yeah, it’s the same thing
Sounds like Berlin burnin’, same thing
History’s a mystery if y’all ain’t learning
End this clown show for real a state bozo

[Chorus: Flavor Flav & Chuck D]
