    Lyrics:
    [Intro]
    Uh
    Pump, pump, woo!
    Come on
    Uh
    [Verse 1]
    Solo, I'm a soloist on a solo list
    All live, never on a floppy disk
    Inka, inka, bottle of ink
    Paintings of rebellion drawn up by the thoughts I think
    [Interlude]
    Yeah
    Come on
    The militant poet in once again, check it
    [Verse 2]
    It's set up like a deck of cards
    They're sendin' us to early graves for all the diamonds
    They'll use a pair of clubs to beat the spades
    With poetry, I paint the pictures that hit
    More like the murals that fit
    Don't turn away, get in front of it
    Brotha, did ya forget ya name?
    Did ya lose it on the wall playin Tic-Tac-Toe?
    Yo, check the diagonal, three brothers gone, come on
    Doesn't that make it three in a row?
    [Refrain]
    (Anger is a gift)
    Come on
    Uh
    [Guitar Solo]
    [Bridge]
    Drop that
    Uh
    Come on
    Yeah
    Uh
    [Verse 3]
    Brotha, did ya forget ya name?
    Did ya lose it on the wall playin' Tic-Tac-Toe?
    Yo, check the diagonal, three million gone, come on
    'Cause you know they're counting backwards to zero
    Environment, the environment exceeding
    On the level of our unconsciousness
    For example, what does the billboard say?
    "Come and play, come and play
    Forget about the movement"
    [Refrain]
    (Anger is a gift)
    [Interlude]
    Yeah
    Uh
    Aw, bring that shit in
    Uh
    Hey
    [Outro]
    Freedom, yeah
    Freedom, yeah right
    Freedom, yeah
    Freedom, yeah
    Freedom, yeah, right
    Freedom, yeah
    Freedom, yeah, right

      @@toddmcintosh2685 It's hilarious how right wingers listen to radical left wing bands and think that these bands agree with their right wing ideologies. Hell no, Rage Against the Machine is against greedy right wing politics that only benefit the rich. What do you think the machine is that they're raging against? It's capitalism. The bands name "Rage Against the Machine" comes from a speech Karl Marx made. In this speech Karl Marx asked the people to rage against the machine.
      All great bands throughout history have always been left leaning, because if you want positive change it's not gonna happen by licking the boots of rich people. USA has only two parties that are both more or less right leaning. There is no real left in US politics. That's how right wing USA is and right wingers are fighting to maintain the status quo. Bernie Sanders is one of the only people in US politics who has tried to make real positive change.
      But even he's not nearly as left leaning as RATM.

      I’d say their best moment was completely crashing the VMA’s and Brad Wilk literally climbing the walls and getting arrested. It was too much for MTV and RATM showed just what a bunch of phony shills the whole industry was… right after they scooped 5 million in cash from Sony before even recording a song. Brilliantly hilarious and tremendous guys. I’ll always love them all.

    Solo, I'm a soloist, on a solo list
    All live, never on a floppy disk
    Inka, inka, bottle of ink
    Paintings of rebellion, drawn up by the thoughts I think!
    [Refrain]
    Yeah! C'mon!
    The militant poet in once again, check it
    [Verse 2]
    It's set up like a deck of cards
    They're sendin' us to early graves for all the diamonds
    They'll use a pair of clubs to beat the spades
    With poetry I paint the pictures that hit
    More like the murals that fit
    Don't turn away
    Get in front of it
    Brotha, did ya forget cha name?
    Did ya lose it on the wall playin Tic-Tac-Toe?
    Yo, check the diagonal
    Three brothers gone, c'mon
    Doesn't that make it three in a row?
    (Anger is a gift)
    [Refrain]
    C'mon!
    Ugh!
    [Guitar Solo]
    [Bridge]
    Drop that!
    Ugh!
    C'mon!
    Yeah!
    Ugh!
    [Verse 3]
    Brotha, did ya forget ya name?
    Did ya lose it on the wall playin' Tic-Tac-Toe?
    Yo, check the diagonal
    Three million gone, c'mon
    'Cause you know they're counting backwards to zero
    Environment
    The environment exceeding
    On the level of our unconsciousness
    For example, what does the billboard say?:
    "Come and play
    Come and play
    Forget about the movement!"

    This song strips the gaslighting residue from your body. I'm 25 and I have 25 years of late stage capitalism trying to tell me things are normal and empathy is weakness under my belt and you can learn and strip it away manually all you want but music has the power to take that process to another level. And I have a special place in my heart for the power of words, but music is the holistic human experience and one song even without lyrics can often say 1000 words better than 1000 words.

      That's not true. He admitted he was there in 1999; admitted that he did indeed fire on the agents. Look it up on Wikipedia. His gun had casings that were found at the scene:
      The casing introduced into evidence had in fact been extracted from the Wichita AR-15."[19][20] In his 1999 memoir, Peltier admitted that he fired at the agents, but denies that he fired the fatal shots that killed them.

    How did these guys create this timeless music at such a young age? Flip side of the musical coin from Bob Marley, but both have wisdom that endures and stays as relevant as time goes by.

      @Occhi Blu Many indigenous Americans actually aren't offended by the term "Indian Americans" which is not the same as just calling them "Indians". Though indigenous Americans is a better option and calling them by the name of their respective tribe is always the best option.

    Leonard Peltier was supposed to be let out of prison decades ago for doing something he didn't do. Still in prison now which is fucking shitty. Justice still hasn't been done. People have been hoping for him to be released for years but it still hasn't happened.

      The FBI had started a program aimed at neutralizing the leaders of AIM and since Leonard Peltier was a leader AIM, his being in jail is basically him being neutralized. It's fucking stupid how the land of the "free" puts so many innocent people in jail, even when some are clearly innocent.

      The casing introduced into evidence had in fact been extracted from the Wichita AR-15."[19][20] In his 1999 memoir, Peltier admitted that he fired at the agents, but denies that he fired the fatal shots that killed them.

      fuck leonard peltier and fuck mumia abu jamal. when you play armed revolutionary you pay the cost. when you pick up a gun and murder someone for the sake of your cause, you are taking the chance of spending the rest of your life in jail. same for tookie williams. life's a bitch and then you die.

      What happened to the original inhabitants of the Americas was genocide. The white man took away their land, their culture, their language, their identities, their dignity, and often their lives. The fact that you are moved to tears by these stories is simply a sign that you are awake and you see these people as human.

    I grew up with these tunes in the 90s. This music made me immune to manipulation later in life. I learned how to protect my own freedom and respect the rights of the others.
