Rage Against the Machine - Darkness lyrics
Your rating:
Causing innocent blood to flow Entire culture lost in the overthrow They came to see, take whatever they please Then all they gave back was death and disease People were left with no choice but to decide To conform to a system responsible for genocide Responsible for genocide, responsible for genocide AIDS is killing the entire African nation And a vaccine is still supposedly under preparation But these governments, they don't mind the procrastination. They say we'll kill them off, take their land and go there for vacation My peoples' culture was strong and was pure And if not for that white greed, it would have endured My people were left with no choice but to decide To conform to a system Their minds did slay Their souls they cage You feel the rage This brutality can never be undone But the sun has not yet set The bass and drums and microphone a threat That's when you've got to get the cry from the inside And see that they're responsible for genocide Responsible for genocide You turn your culture down my throat Say I'm inferior when you vomit and choke You fill my mind with a false sense of history And then you wonder why I have no identity We'll strike a match and it'll catch And spread the insight we need A tiny fire burning bright Shedding light on the darkness of greed A yes yes yall and you don't stop Shedding light on the darkness of greed
