Rage Against the Machine - Take The Power Back songtekst
Je score:
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 Lost the culture, the culture lost Spun our minds and through time Ignorance has taken over We gotta take the power back Bam, Here's the plan Mother fuck Uncle Sam Step back, I know who I am Raise up your ear, I'll drop the style and clear It's the beast and lyrics they fear The rage is relentless We need a movement with quickness You are the witness of change And to counteract We gotta take the power back Chorus: We gotta take the power back We gotta take the power back The president curriculums I put my fist in 'em Eurocentric every last one of 'em See right through the red, white and blue disguise With lecture, I puncture the structure of lies Installed in our minds and attempting To hold us back We've got to take it back 'Cause holes in our spirits causin' tears and fears One-sided stories for years and years and years I'm inferior? Who's inferior? Yea, we needa check the interior Of the system who cares about only one culture And that is why We gotta take the power back Chorus The teacher stands in front of the class But the lesson plan he can't recall The student's eyes don't percieve the lies Bouncing of every fucking wall His composure is well kept I guess he fears playing the fool The complacent students sit and listen to the Bull shit that he learned in school Europe ain't my rope to swing on Can't learn a thing from it Yet we hang from it Gotta get it, gotta get it together then Like the mother fuckin 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 Chorus No more lies
