War With A Breath

Rage Against The Machine

Every official that comes in



Cripples us leaves us maimed



Silent and tamed



And with our flesh and bones



He builds his homes




Southern fist



Rise through tha jungle mist



Clenched to smash power so cancerous



A black flag and a red star



A rising sun loomin' over Los Angeles



'Cause for Raza livin in La La



Is like Gaza on to tha dawn of Intifada



Reach for tha lessons tha masked pass on



And seize tha metropolis



It's you that it's built on




Everything can change on a new years day



As everything changed on new years day




Everything can change on a new years day



As everything changed on new years day




War within a breath



It's land or death



Their existence is a crime



Their seat their robe their tie



Their land deeds



Their hired guns



They're tha crime



Shots heard underground round tha rapture



Tha world's eye captured



At last in a Mexican pasture



Tha masked screaming land or death



Within a breath



A war from tha depth of time



Who shot four puppet governors in a line



Who shook all tha world bankers



Who think they can rhyme



Shot tha landlords who knew it was mine



Yes a war from tha depth of time




Everything can change on a new years day



As everything changed on new years day




Everything can change on a new years day



As everything changed on new years day




War within a breath



It's land or death
