Wake Up [RATM - Rage Against The Machine 1992]
------------------------------------------Come on! Uggh! Come on... Although ya try to discredit ya still never edit the needle, I'll thread it radically poetic standing with the fury that they had in 66 and like e-double I'm mad still knee-deep in the systems shit. Hoover--he was a body remover I'll give ya a dose but it'll never come close to the rage built up inside of me fist in the air in the land of hypocrisy. Movements come and movements go leaders speak, movements cease when their heads are flown cos all these punks got bullets in their heads departments of police, the judges, the feds. Networks at work, keeping the people calm you know they went after King when he spoke out on Vietnam; he turned the power to the have-nots and then came the shot. Yeah! Yeah, back in this... Wit poetry my mind I flex flip like Wilson, vocals never lacking that finesse, what I gotta, what I gotta do to wake you up to shake you up, to break the structure up. Cos blood still flows in the gutter I'm like taking photos mad boy kicks open the shutter set the groove then stick and move like I was Cassius rep the stutter, step then bomb a left upon the fascists. Yeah! The several federal men who pulled schemes on the dream and put it to an end. Ya better beware of retribution with mind war 20/20 visions and murals with metaphors. Networks at work keeping people calm ya know they murdered X they tried to blame it on Islam; he turned the power to the have-nots and then came the shot. Uggh! What was the price on his head? What was the price on his head? I think I heard a shot I think I heard a shot I think I heard a shot I think I heard a shot I think I heard a shot I think I heard, think I heard a shot. Black nationalism... He may be a real contender for this position should he abandon his supposed obedience to white liberal doctrine of non-violence, and embrace black nationalism. Through counter-intelligence it should be possible to pinpoint potential trouble-makers and neutralize them... Through counter-intelligence it should be possible to pinpoint potential trouble-makers and neutralize them and neutralize them and neutralize them... Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! How long? Not long, 'cause what you reap is what you sow.

Seeing red again seeing red again. This change he won't contain, slip away to clear your mind. When asked who made it show, the truth he gives in to most. So lay down the threat is real, when his sight goes red again. So lay down the threat is real, when his sight goes red again. So lay down the threat is real, when his sight goes red again. Seeing red again Seeing red again Seeing red again Seeing red again Seeing red again Seeing red again Seeing red again Seeing red... They say freak when you're singled out, the red it filters through...
