Linkin Park - Wretches And Kings lyrics

"Theres a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you cant take part; you cant even pa**ively take part, and youve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and youve got to make it stop." [Mario Savio] To save face / how low can you go Talk a lot of game but yet you dont know Static on the way / make us all say whoa The people up top push the people down low Get down And obey every word Steady getting mine if you havent yet heard Wanna take what I got / dont be absurd Dont fight the power / nobody gets hurt If you havent heard yet then Im letting you know There aint sh** we dont run when the guns unload And no one make a move unless my people say so Got everything outta control Now everybody go Steel unload / final blow We the animals take control Hear us now / clear and true Wretches and kings we come for you So keep pace / how slow can you go Talk a lot of sh** and yet you dont know Fire on the way / make you all say whoa The people up top and the people down low Get down And Im running it like that The front of the attack is exactly where Im at Somewhere in between the kick and the hi hat The pen and the contract The pitch and the contact So get with the combat / Im letting em know There aint sh** you can say to make me back down no So / push the bu*ton let the whole thing blow Spinning everything outta control Now everybody go Steel unload / final blow We the animals take control Hear us now / clear and true Wretches and kings we come for you Steel unload / fire blow Filthy animals / beat them low Skin and bone / black and blue No more this sun shall beat onto you [6x] From the front to the back and the side to side If you fear what I feel put em up real high "...when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you cant take part; you cant even pa**ively take part, and youve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and youve got to make it stop. And youve got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless youre free, the machine will be prevented from working at all."
