'Crank the music up'
Bring that shit in!
Uggh!
Yeah, the movement's in motion with mass militant poetry
Now check this out...uggh!
In the right light, study becomes insight
But the system that dissed us
Teaches us to read and write
So called facts are fraud
They want us to allege and pledge
And bow down to their
God
Lost the culture, the culture lost
Spun our minds and through time
Ignorance has taken over
Yo, we gotta take the power back!
Bam!
Here's the plan
Motherfuck
Uncle
Sam
Step back,
I know who
I am
Raise up your ear,
I'll drop the style and clear
It's the beats and the lyrics they fear
The rage is relentless
We need a movement with a quickness
You are the witness of change
And to counteract
We gotta take the power back
Yeah, we gotta take the power back
Come on, come on!
We gotta take the power back
The present curriculum
I put my fist in 'em
Eurocentric every last one of 'em
See right through the red, white and blue disguise
With lecture
I puncture the structure of lies
Installed in our minds and attempting
To hold us back
We've got to take it back 'Cause holes in our spirit causin' tears and fears
One-sided stories for years and years and years
I'm inferior?
Who's inferior?
Yea, we need to check the interior
Of the system that cares about only one culture
And that is why
We gotta take the power back
Yeah, we gotta take the power back
Come on, come on!
We gotta take the power back
Hey yo check, we're gonna have to break it, break it, break it down
Awww shit!
Uggh!
And like this...uggh!
Come on, yeah!
Bring it back the other way!
The teacher stands in front of the class
But the lesson plan he can't recall
The student's eyes don't perceive the lies
Bouning off every fucking wall
His composure is well kept
I guess he fears playing the fool
The complacent students sit and listen to some of that
Bullshit that he learned in school
Europe ain't my rope to swing on
Can't learn a thing from it
Yet we hang from it
Gotta get it, gotta get it together then
Like the motherfuckin'
Weathermen
To expose and close the doors on those who try
To strangle and mangle the truth 'Cause the circle of hatred continues unless we react
We gotta take the power back
Yeah, we gotta take the power back
Come on, come on!
We gotta take the power back
No more lies (8 times, building to a crescendo)
Uggh!
Yeah!
Take it back
Joe
Take it back, a-take it back
A-take it back
Joe, come on!
Take it back
Joe
Take it back, a-take it back
A-take it back
Joe, come on!
Uggh!
Yeah!
Raise Hell è una band thrash metal proveniente da Stoccolma, Svezia. La band ha cambiato nome diverse volte all'inizio della sua storia; il loro primo demo, *Nailed*, del 1997, fu pubblicato sotto il nome In Cold Blood, un nome abbandonato in favore di Raise Hell dopo la firma con Nuclear Blast, avvenuta ancora durante l'adolescenza dei membri. Dopo il rilascio dell'album, la band ha fatto tour in Europa con Dismember, Children of Bodom e altri artisti. Il loro secondo album, *Not Dead Yet*, uscito nel 1999, fu prodotto da Anders Friden (di In Flames) ed è stato seguito da un tour con Destruction.
