--------------------------------------------------
Born with insight and a raised fist
A witness to the slit wrist
As we move into '92
Still in a room without a view
Ya got to know Ya got to know
That when I say go, go, go
Amp up and amplity defy
I'm a brother with a furious mind
Action must be taken
We don't need the key
We'll break in
Something must be done
About vengeance, a badge, and a gun
'Cause I'll rip the mike, rip the stage, rip the system
I was born to rage against 'em
Fist in ya face, in the place
And I'll drop the style clearly
Word is born, fight the war, fuck the norm
Now I got no patience
So sick of complacence
With the defiance
The mind of a revolutionary
So clear the lane
The finger to the land of chains
What? The land of the free?
Whoever told you that is your enemy
Something must be done
About vengeance, a badge, and a gun
'Cause I'll rip the mike, rip the stage, rip the system
I was born to rage against 'em
Now action must be taken
We don't need the key
We'll break in
I've got no patience now
Sick of complacence now
I've got no patience now
Sick of complacence now
Sick of sick of sick of sick of you
Time has come to paaaaaaay
Yes, I know my enemies
They're the teachers who taught me to fight
COMPROMISE, CONFORMITY, ASSIMILATION, SUBMISSION, IGNORANCE, HYPOCRISY, BRUTALITY, THE ELITE
ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS
ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS
ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS
ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS
