Rage Against The Machine - War Within A Breath lyrics

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 the metropolis

It's you that it's built on

Everything can change on a new years day

As everything changed on a new years day (2x)

War within a breath

It's land or death (4x)

Their existence is a crime

Their seat their robe their tie

Their land deeds

Their hired guns

They're the crime

Shots heard underground round the rapture

Tha world's eye captured

At last in a Mexican pasture

Tha masked screaming land or death

Within a breath

A war from the depth of time

Who shot four puppets 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 a new years day (2x)

War within a breath

It's land or death (4x
