Tom Morello - Settle for Nothing lyrics

[Verse One] A jail cell is freedom from the pain in my home Hatred pa**ed on pa**ed on and pa**ed on A world of violent rage but it's one that I can recognize Having never seen the color of my father's eyes Yes, I dwell in hell but it's a hell that I can grip I tried to grip my family but I slipped To escape from the pain in an existence mundane I got a nine, a sign, a set, and now I got a name! [Chorus] Read my writing on the wall! No one's here to catch me when I fall! d**h is on my side! Suicide! [Verse One] [Chorus x2] Read my writing on the wall! No one's here to catch me when I fall! Caught between my culture and the system Genocide! Read my writing on the wall! No one's here to catch me when I fall! If ignorance is bliss Then knock the smile off my face! Yeah! [Outro x4] If we don't take action now We settle for nothing later Settle for nothing now And we'll settle for nothing later
