Rage Against the Machine - Wake Up(2012)

[00:37.85] Come on
[00:40.30]
[00:59.32] Come on, although you try to discredit
[01:02.42] You'll still never edit
[01:03.94] The needle, I'll thread it
[01:05.68] Radically poetic
[01:06.05] Standing with the fury that they had in '66
[01:10.08] And like E-Double, I'm mad
[01:11.54] Still knee-deep in the system's shit
[01:13.75] Hoover, he was a body remover
[01:16.19] I'll give you a dose
[01:17.39] But it will never come close
[01:18.75] To the rage built up inside of me
[01:21.54] Fist in the air, in the land of hypocricy
[01:24.81] Movements come and movements go
[01:27.03] Leaders speak, movements cease
[01:28.66] When their heads are flown
[01:30.45] 'Cause all these punks got bullets in their heads
[01:33.15] Departments of police (what?) the judges (what?) the feds
[01:36.00] Networks at work, keeping people calm
[01:38.36] You know they went after King
[01:39.80] When he spoke out on Vietnam
[01:41.89] He turned the power to the have-nots
[01:44.56] And then came the shot
[01:47.92]
[01:57.08] Yeah
[01:59.46]
[02:04.57] Yeah, back in this
[02:07.33]
[02:09.82] With poetry, my mind I flex
[02:12.02] Flip like Wilson, vocals never lacking that finesse
[02:15.57] Who I got to, who I got to do to wake you up?
[02:18.26] To shake you up, to break the structure up
[02:20.94] 'Cause blood still flows in the gutter
[02:23.16] I'm like taking photos
[02:24.81] Mad boy kicks open the shutter
[02:26.76] Set the groove
[02:27.68] Then stick and move like I was Cassius
[02:29.56] Rep the stutter step and left a bomb upon the fascists
[02:32.35] Yeah, the several federal man
[02:34.73] Who pulled schemes on the dream
[02:36.44] And put it to an end
[02:37.80] You better beware
[02:39.08] Of retribution with mind war
[02:40.95] 20-20 visions and murals with metaphors
[02:43.79] Networks at work keeping people calm
[02:46.03] You know they murdered X
[02:47.48] And tried to blame it on Islam
[02:49.21] He turned the power to the have-nots
[02:52.86] And then came the shot
[02:56.26]
[03:34.55] What was the price on his head?
[03:37.73]
[03:40.06] What was the price on his head?
[03:45.72] I think I heard a shot
[03:48.47]
[03:51.25] I think I heard a shot
[03:53.88]
[03:57.03] I think I heard a shot
[03:59.60]
[04:02.52] I think I heard a shot
[04:05.28]
[04:14.54] I think I heard a shot
[04:17.05]
[04:24.50] I think I heard, I think I heard a shot
[04:28.76]
[04:38.20] (He may be a real contender for this position)
[04:41.01] (Should he abandon his opposed obediance to the white-liberal doctrine of non-violence)
[04:46.02] (And embrace black nationalism)
[04:49.33] (Through counter-intelligence it should be possible to pinpoint potential trouble-makers and neutralize them)
[04:55.79] (Through counter-intelligence it should be possible to pinpoint potential trouble-makers and neutralize them)
[05:02.09] (And neutralize them, and neutralize them)
[05:05.77] Wake up
[05:08.75] Wake up
[05:11.70] Wake up
[05:14.43] Wake up
[05:17.44] Wake up
[05:20.26] Wake up
[05:23.19] Wake up
[05:25.78] Wake up
[05:29.83]
[05:52.40] How long? Not long, 'cause what you reap is what you sow
[05:57.73]
