heres the lyrics to rage's cover of "renegades of funk":
?RENEGADES OF FUNK? (Afrika Bambaataa)
No matter how hard you try, you can't stop this now
No matter how hard you try, you can't stop this now
Renegades of this atomic age
This atomic age of renegades
Renegades of this atomic age
This atomic age of renegades
Prehistoric ages and the days of ancient Greece
On down through the Middle Ages
When the earth kept going through changes
Then the renaissance came, times continue to change
Nothing stays the same, there were always renegades
Like Chief Sitting Bull, Tom Payne
Like Martin Luther King, Malcolm X
They were renegades of the atomic age
So many renegades
We?re the renegades of funk
We?re the renegades of funk
We?re the renegades of funk
We?re the renegades of funk
From a different solar system many, many galaxies away
We are the force of another creation
A new musical revelation
And we're on this musical mission to help the others listen
Groove from land to land, singing electronic chants
Like the Zulu nation
Revelations
Destroy all nations
Destroy all nations
Destroy all nations
Destroy all nations
Destroy all nations
Destroy all nations
Now renegades are people with their own philosophies
They change the course of history
Everyday people like you and me
Now renegades are people with their own philosophies
They change the course of history
Everyday people like you and me
We?re the renegades of funk
We?re the renegades of funk
We?re the renegades of funk
We?re the renegades of funk
Poppin', sockin', rockin' with a side of hip-hop
Because where we're goin' there ain't no stoppin'
You know we're poppin', sockin', with a side of hip-hop
Because where we're goin' there ain't no stoppin'
Poppin', sockin', rockin' with a side of hip-hop
Poppin', sockin', rockin' with a side of hip-hop
Poppin', sockin', rockin' with a side of hip-hop
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're teachers of the funk
And not of empty popping
We're blessed with the Force and the sight of electronics
With the bass, and the treble
The horns and our vocals
You know, every time we pop into the beat, we get fresh
There was a time when our music
Was something called the Bay Street Beat
People would gather from all around
To get down on the Bay sound
You had to be a renegade those days
To take a man on the dance floor
Say jam, sucker (Jam, sucker)
Say jam, sucker (Jam, sucker)
Say groove, sucker (Groove, sucker)
Now groove, sucker (Groove, sucker)
Say dance, sucker (Dance, sucker)
Say dance, sucker (Dance, sucker)
Say move, sucker (Move, sucker)
Now move, sucker (Move, sucker)
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
