Rage Against The Machine

The Battle of Los Angeles (1999)

Mic Check

Wait a minute now

Ha Aha Cmon

Wait a minute now

Check

To tha young r to tha e tha b to tha e tha l

Never give up just live up

Fed upon America

I be spittin it up

Rippin it up

Even amount in each cup

To my brothers burning bare feet on black top

Whose curled neath tha shadows

From the gaze of the cops

Whose huntin for 9 to 5s through factory locks

Is now hunted on this modern day auction block

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

Te te te te te Huh

Back in

Flexin and mashin

With complex text

Fast and in a fashion

That snap back necks

Quicker than a fed cash tha company checks

Huh, I be tha fire only Marley could catch

Yes, I be tha flame in tha cellar beware

Where nameless cold millions gaspin for air

Tha naked and wageless

Scream within cages, huh

They make you pull your shit

Just to get your share, what?

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

Huh go, Huh go, Huh go, Huh go, Huh go, Huh go,

Huh go, Huh go, Huh go, Huh go, Huh go, Huh go, Huh go, Huh go,

(walk e'm) down with the warrior sound, Uh.

With this mic device

I spit nonfiction

Who got tha power

This be my question

Tha mass or tha few

In this torn nation?

Tha priest, tha book or tha congregation?

Politricks who rob and hold down your zone?

Or those who give tha thieves tha key to their homes?

Tha pig whos free to murder one Shucklak

Or survivors who make a move and murder one back?

This mic device

I spit nonfiction

Who got tha power

This be my question

Tha mass of tha few

In this torn nation?

Tha priest, tha book or tha congregation?

Politricks who rob and hold down your zone?

Or those who give tha thieves tha key to their homes?

Tha pig whos free to murder one Shucklak

Or survivors who make a move and murder one back?

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker

Mic Check, Ha Aha

I be the anti-myth rhythm rock shocker, what?
