Settle For Nothing

Rage Against The Machine

    Continues after the ad

    A jail cell is freedom
    From the pain in my home
    Hatred passed on, passed on, passed on
    A world of violent rage
    But it's one that I can recognize
    Having never seen the color of my father's eyes
    Yes, I dwell in hell, but it's a hell that I can grip
    I tried to grip my family but I slipped
    To escape from the pain and an existence mundane
    I gotta 9, a sign, a set and now I gotta name

    Read my writing on the wall
    No one's here to catch me when I fall
    But death is on my side
    Suicide

    A jail cell is freedom from the pain in my home
    Hatred passed on, passed on and passed on
    A world of violent rage
    But its one that I can recognize
    Having never seen the color of my father's eyes
    Yes, I dwell in hell, but it's a hell that I can grip
    I tried to grip my family but I slipped
    To escape from the pain and an existence mundane
    I gotta 9, a sign, a set and now I gotta name

    Read my writing on the wall
    No one's ever catch me when I fall
    Caught between my culture and the system
    Genocide

    Read my writing on the wall
    No one's ever catch me when I fall
    If ignorance is bliss
    Then knock the smile off my face
    Yeah

    If we don't take action now
    We'll settle for nothing later
    We settle for nothing now
    And we'll settle for nothing later

    If we don't take action now
    We'll settle for nothing later
    We settle for nothing now
    And we'll settle for nothing later

    If we don't take action now
    We'll settle for nothing later
    We settle for nothing now
    And we'll settle for nothing later

    If we don't take action now
    We'll settle for nothing later
    We settle for nothing now
    And we'll settle for nothing later
