Darkness of Greed (Demo) Rage Against the Machine

[00:32.50] Greed
[00:33.75] Causing innocent blood to flow
[00:35.34] Entire culture, lost in the overthrow
[00:38.11] They came to seize and take whatever they please
[00:40.53] Then all they gave back was death and disease
[00:43.16] My people were left with no choice but to decide
[00:45.95] To conform to a system, responsible for genocide
[00:50.25] Responsible for genocide
[00:52.90] Responsible for genocide
[00:57.56] Responsible for genocide
[01:04.90] AIDS is killing the entire African nation
[01:10.50] And a vaccine is still supposedly under preparation
[01:15.86] But these governments, they don't mind the procrastination
[01:20.28] They say, "We'll kill them off, take their land, and go there for vacation"
[01:25.57] My people's culture was strong, it was pure
[01:28.62] And if not for that white greed
[01:30.22] It would've endured
[01:31.57] My people were left with no choice but to decide
[01:34.36] To conform to a system
[01:36.64] Their souls encaged, minds enslaved
[01:38.76] I feel the rage
[01:39.91] Brutality can never be undone
[01:42.56] But the sun is not yet set
[01:44.88] The bass and drums and microphones a threat
[01:47.76] That's when ya investigate the crimes from the inside
[01:50.95] And see that they're responsible for genocide
[01:53.83] Responsible for genocide
[01:56.54] Responsible for genocide
[02:00.23]
[02:41.60] You jam your culture down my throat
[02:44.28] Say I'm inferior when I find that I choke
[02:46.74] You fill my mind with a false sense of history
[02:49.79] And then you wonder why I have no identity?
[02:52.43] Well I'll strike a match and it'll catch and
[02:54.78] Spread the insight we need
[02:58.11] A tiny fire, burning bright
[03:01.06] Shedding light on the darkness of greed
[03:03.65] A yes-yes y'all, and you don't stop
[03:06.36] Shedding light on the darkness of greed
[03:09.12] A yes-yes y'all, and you don't stop
[03:11.85] Shedding light on the darkness of greed
[03:15.24]
