Any Rage Against the Machine Fans on Steemit?!

This song is intense! There have been rumors that a new album will be released by the band but I am not optimistic. Maybe Zack will just occasionally roll out a song here and there to keep their name alive.

Here are the lyrics to, "Digging for Windows".

fuck that bright shit
the spot or the flashlights
we in la ducking both
in the shadows with lead pipes
the days are all night

see if i pay edison
no medicine
these blues ain’t more better when
my fever rise in the jungle
as quick as the price spikes
the days are all night

my future snapped like a rubber band
off my fold on a hand to hand
he drew from his waist
i put two in his roof
and i can still hear his screams
all night

now they ride their portfolios
like rodeos
rise every time my cherry glows
on the end of my cig as
the smoke blows through the bars
and the co’s laugh fades
as he strolls away
says i gotta pay
off that roll away
or its fuck your visitation days
and i pop off so in solitaire
i dream of offing these fred astaires
and the skin off my fingers tear
we digging for windows here
where the days are all night

this city’s a trap my partner
under the lights of they choppers
bodies tools for they coffers
not worth the cost of our coffins
i stare at a future so toxic
no trust in the dust of a promise
won’t mark the name on a ballot
so they can be free to devour our options
and just like you I’m a target
ill defined by the guap in my pocket
but the stage make figures
as quick as it off em
what marley and pac get?
i put these caps in capitals
leave minds blazed in they capitols
i step with a fury so actual fact
that my offense could be capital

I have to admit that it is one of the darkest songs he has ever put together. It is definitely a reflection of the times we live in.

Love Rage.

Haha. Classic

This is how it all started for me. Fan for life!

Last time I went to the states, we set up my friends garage to be sound proof. We all play guitars and we had a drummer and a bass this time. We played this song first. Sounded sick turned up to 11

Holy crap!! Then you had ringing ears for two days.

This goat knows what's Up!

Just saw prophets of rage in dc. Only thing that could have made it better would be if zack joined them for a song

I just can't imagine it being the same. I still would not mind checking them out.

Definitely not the same. Different. But the best show I have ever seen. Ever.

Sweet! Thanks for the heads up. Big Rage fan here.

Awesome, love the new song!

Intense, and awesome. Love the Rage. Like you I got hooked from the beginning.
