The Narrows Songtext
von Rage Against the Machine

Drop it
Hey
Ugh

Try to crack and somewhat react
Vocal snaps attracts I′m trying to rap
Those who try to subdue the truth
Lose their condition
Were labelled inactive

Being 91 in the twentieth century
Brooklyn is a magnum in a bottle of kerosene
Flame ignites into the black sending fright
Tortured weak minds and words and insight

Back to the explosion on stage guns fear
Presence of war creates a dangerous atmosphere
Using my brain a certain power is obtained
Using the strength I gained a struggle remains, but I


Choose another tune to uplift
Yeah, you know my anger is a gift
A gift to expect the test we all must face
Hah
Out my face

Release the reason
Allow the pain
The actors change
But the plays the same

C'mon!
In the narrows
In the narrows
In the narrows

Some are the holders of power
But will start a galactic shower
Turn to my brother little power structure itself
Hate only motivates and creates more hate

State to state
I set it straight and I investigate
Dull fate
While teachers taught me lessons
At the oppression I react with aggression


Yo, my section after section
No need for repression
Just take a mic and a rap another session
No need for guessing
Yeah, and that shit that you′re stressin'

Release the reason
Allow the pain
The actors change
But the plays the same

Release the reason
Allow the pain
The actors change
But the plays the same

C'mon!
In the narrows
In the narrows
In the narrows

Ugh!

Ugh!

Divine are stepping up and proving to sucka′s
They cannot dumben up their style
And I do it with a smile when I put punks on trial
Taking ′em back again
Yeah the name of the comprehender
The style I drop is going on and on
To the punks who recognize the style and realize
That I'm not no Punk Kid
Just stepping up for the mic hit

Ugh!
In the narrows

In the narrows
In the narrows
In the narrows
Ugh!
