Rage Against the Machine Settle for Nothing

A jail cell is freedom
From the pain in my home
Hatred passed on, passed on, passed on
A world of violent rage
But it's one that i can recognize
Having never seen the colour of my father's eyes
Yes i dwell in hell, but its a hell that i can grip
I tried to grip my family but i slipped
To escape from the pain
And an existence mundane
I gotta 9, a sign, a set, and now I gotta name!

Read my writing on the wall!
No one's here to catch me when i fall!
But death is on my side!
Suicide!!!

To escape from the pain and an existence mundane
I gotta 9, a sign, a set, and now I gotta name!

Read my writing on the wall!
No one's ever catch me when i fall!
Caught between my culture and the system!
GENOCIDE!!!

Read my writing on the wall!
No one's ever catch me when i fall!
If ignorance is bliss
Then knock the smile off my face!
Yeeah!!!

If we don't take action now
We'll settle for nothing later

We'll settle for nothing now
And we'll settle for nothing later

If we don't take action now
We'll settle for nothing later

We'll settle for nothing now!
And we'll settle for nothing later!

If we don't take action now
We'll settle for nothing later!!!

We'll settle for nothing now!
And we'll settle for nothing later!!!
