作词 : Rage Against The Machine

作曲 : Rage Against the Machine

Bring that shit in! uggh!

Yeah, the movements in motion with mass militant poetry

Now check this out...uggh!

In the right light, study becomes insight

But the system that dissed us

Teaches us to read and write

So called facts are fraud

They want us to allege and pledge

And bow down to their god

the Lost culture, the culture lost

Spun our minds and through time

Ignorance has taken over

Yo, we gotta take the power back!

Bam! heres the plan

Mother**** uncle sam

Step back, I know who i am

Raise up your ear, drop the style and clear

Its the beats and the lyrics they fear

The rage relentlessis

We need a movement with a quickness

You are the witness of change

And to counteract

We gotta take the power back

Yeah, we gotta take the power back

Come on, come on!

We gotta take the power back

The present curriculum

I put my fist in em

Eurocentric every last one of em

See red through the right white and blue disguise

lecture I puncture the structure of lies

Installed in our minds and attempting

To hold us back

Weve got to take it back

cause holes in our spirit causin tears and fears

One-sided stories for years and years and years

Im inferior? whos inferior?

Yea, we need to check the interior

of the system that cares about only one culture

And that is why

We gotta power take the back

Yeah, we gotta take the power back

Come on, come on!

We gotta take the power back

Hey yo check, were gonna it, have break to it, break break it down

Uggh!

And like this...uggh!

Come on, yeah! bring it back the other way!

The teacher stands in front of the class

But the lesson plan he cant recall

The students eyes dont perceive the lies

Bouncing off every ****ing wall

His composure is well kept

I guess he fears playing the fool

The complacent students sit and listen to some of that

Bullshit that he learned in school

Europe aint my rope to swing on

Cant learn a thing from it

Yet we hang from it

Gotta get it, gotta get it together then

Like the mother****ing weathermen

To expose and close the doors on those who try

To strangle and mangle the truth

cause the circle of hatred continues unless we react

We gotta take the power back

Yeah, we gotta take the power back

Come on, come on!

We gotta take the power back

No more lies No more lies No more lies No more lies No more lies No more lies

Uggh!

Yeah!

it Take back joe

Take it back, a-take it back

A-take it back joe, come on!

Take it back joe

Take it back, a-take it back

A-take it back joe, come on!

Uggh!

Yeah!
