Testo Testify - Rage Against The Machine
Testo della canzone Testify (Rage Against The Machine), tratta dall'album Universal City '93
Here we go
Nine to five is the blood for your sweat, pay the landlord
He's taking your blood for the rent, yo
The balance dead so a bullet's what I get
When my Mao Tse Tung gets offensive like Tet
The whip snapped my back, my spine cracked for tobacco
Oh, what the Marlboro man can, I make London bridges fall
If they do me like Mumia Abu-Jamal
Nobody move, nobody move
86 Philly pigs drive a whole city block
And I'm campin' like Hampton
Read the word of the innocent
Yet death row is locked
Capitolism, check the wrong rhythm
And they say let Saigons be Saigons but wait a Ho-Chi-minute
Waste the day 'cause the night brings a hearse
Make a move and plead the fifth, you can't plead the first
Are you ready to testify?
Get ready to testify
Are you ready to testify?
Get ready to testify
C'mon
The revolutionary aesthetic
Black leather, beret and powder blue
However meanacing this human form on the outside looks
Without revolutionary action it is ever so translucent
I stand admist grandeous gestures
Postures and platforms of romanticism
Creating more noise than answers
Creating more noise than the sirens
That keep our children crouched in corners
I sit and watch us do the blind man dance
And I can't stand the smell of false composure
So I take a Ho-Chi-minute to meditate
And think and then tune to the word of Jose Matin
Doing is the best way of saying
Doing is the best way of saying
Doing is the best way of saying
Doing is the best way of saying
Nine to five is the blood for your sweat, pay the landlord
He's taking your blood for the rent, yo
The balance dead so a bullet's what I get
When my Mao Tse Tung gets offensive like Tet
The whip snapped my back, my spine cracked for tobacco
Oh, what the Marlboro man can, I make London bridges fall
If they do me like Mumia Abu-Jamal
Nobody move, nobody move
86 Philly pigs drive a whole Hampton
Read the word of the innocent
Yet death row is locked
Capitolism, check the wrong rhythm
And so they say let Saigons be Saigons but wait a Ho-Chi-minute
Waste the day 'cause the night brings a hearse
Make a move and plead the fifth, you can't plead the first
Are you ready to testify?
Get ready to testify
Are you ready to testify?
Get ready to testify
C'mon
Strike back way of saying
Doing is the best way of saying
