rebel with a cause
25th January 2002, 07:01
Yea, I'm back with the sounds
straight from the underground
to puncture all the half-truths
that make our world go 'round.
Some lyrics may disturb you
and others not make sense
but I'm here just to inform ya
and destroy your ignorance.
Abolished all those royalties
that big ol' grand regime
take a look at U. S. now
it's that same ol' fu#kin scheme.
All the fat cats up on Wall Street
and the big shots in D.C.
are the ones who rule this country
yea, that's true democracy.
Rebellion is my nature
tired of this $hit
exhausted and strangled
yet I still mustn't quit
blood sweat and tears
expressed through words on this page
because I write my poetry........In the Spirit of Rage!
In the Spirit of Rage
ya can't stop us now
In the Spirit of Rage
who's got the powa' now
In the Spirit of Rage
don't tell me to bow
In the Spirit of Rage
Transmission up
connection to the braindead
what the fu#k?
That bullet's still inside your head?
Rocha told ya once
so now I'll do it again
Present it in a way
that you will comprehend.
I sling my rocks & my bottles
like them 'testors in Quebec
force feed that propaganda
get your ignorance on check.
Profit off people
the bulls and the bears
poverty rises
but nobody cares.
Calvin & Tommy
give the masses their nipple---------------(feed consumers w/ false ideas)
with well fluent knowledge
of the people they cripple.
Vision of blindness
blocking the door
shareholder objective
to trample the poor.
A country ruled by morons
rednecks & hicks
no arduous labor
they all act like dicks
blood sweat and tears
expressed through words on this page
because I write my poetry........In the Spirit of Rage!
In the Spirit of Rage
In the Spirit of Rage
Hot ice, cold fire,
dark light, bright blackness,
U.S. Beliefs, U.S. action
Hypocrisy! Hypocrisy!
Drop my flow & my beats
to get to your brain
attack the microphone
without refrain.
From the amp to your ears
I preach the real life fears
support my Zapatistas
been denied for years.
Yet we struggle and strive
through this poli-nomic fight-------(Political-economic)
attempting to regain
our justly due rights.
A trail of broken treaties
and poor housing on the 'rez'
"destroy" and "relocate"
is what the document says.
Feds, GOON & SWAT
all prepare their crew
to re-establish hatred
since fourteen-ninety two.
Being who you are
is capitol offense
mine is being Mexican
worth "dos" life sentence
blood sweat and tears
expressed through words on this page
because I write my poetry........In the Spirit of Rage!
In the Spirit of Rage
In the Spirit of Rage
Rebellion is my nature
tired of this $hit
exhausted and strangled
yet I still mustn't quit
blood sweat and tears
expressed through words on this page
because I write my poetry........In the Spirit of Rage!
In the Spirit of Rage
we overthrew ya now
In the Spirit of Rage
we've seized the powa' now
In the Spirit of Rage
your turn to bow
In the Spirit of Rage!
