Guerilla Radio
Performed By: Rage Against The Machine
From the album: "The Battle of Los Angeles" (1999)
Album Rating: 4


Transmission third world war third round
A decade of the weapon of sound above ground
Ain't no shelter if you're looking for shade
I lick shots at the brutal charade
As the polls close like a casket
On truth devoured
A silent play on the shadow of power
A spectacle monopolized
The camera's eye in choice disguised
Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?
Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?
A spectacle monopolized
They hold the reins and stole your eyes
The fistagons bullets and bombs
Who snuff the banks
Who staff the party ranks
More for Gore or the son of a drug lord
None of the above
Fuck it cut the chord

Lights out, guerilla radio
Turn that shit up
Lights out, guerilla radio
Turn that shit up

Contact I highjacked the frequencies
Blockin' the beltway
Move on DC
Way past the days of bombin' mc's
Sound off Mumian guan be free
Who gottem yo check the federal file
All you pen the devils know the trial was vile
An army of pigs try to silence my style
Off 'em all out that box it's my radio dial

Lights out, guerilla radio
Turn that shit up
Lights out, guerilla radio
Turn that shit up

It has to start somewhere
It has to start sometime
What better place than here
What better time than now

All hell can't stop us now
All hell can't stop us now
All hell can't stop us now
All hell can't stop us now
