Fistful of Steel

Fistful of Steel - Rage Against the Machine Lyrics

Huh!

Check it!

Uh!



Silence, something about silence makes me sick

'Cause silence can be violent sorta like a slit wrist

If the vibe was suicide, then you would push da button

But if ya bowin' down, then let me do the cuttin'



Some speak the sounds but speak in silent voices

Like radio is silent though it fills the air with noises

Its transmissions bring submission as ya mold to the unreal

And mad boy grips the microphone with a fistful of steel



Yeah, and mad mad boy grips the microphone

With a fistful of steel, with a fistful of steel

('Cause I know the power of the question)

With a fistful of steel, with a fistful of steel

(And I won't stop cause I know the power of the question)



It's time to flow like the fluid in ya veins if ya will it, I will spill it

And ya out just as quick as ya came, not a silent one

But a defiant one, never a normal one

'Cause I'm the bastard son with the visions of the move



Vocals not to soothe but to ignite and put in flight

My sense of militance groovin', playin' that game called survival

The status, the elite, the enemy, the rival

The silent sheep slippin', riffin', trippin'



Give you a glimpse of the reality I'm grippin'

Steppin' into the jam and I'm slammin' like Shaquille

Mad boy grips the microphone with a fistful of steel



Yeah, and mad boy grips the microphone

With a fistful of steel, with a fistful of steel

('Cause I know the power of the question)

With a fistful of steel, with a fistful of steel

(And I won't stop 'cause I know the power of the question)

Ah shit!



And I won't stop 'cause I know the power of the question



And if the vibe was suicide

Then you would push da button

But if ya bowin' down then let me do the cuttin'

Yeah, come on



A .44 full of bullets, face full of pale

Eyes full of empty, a stare full of nails

The roulette ball, rolls along on the wheel

A mind full of fire and a fistful of steel



And if the vibe was suicide

Then you would push da button

But if ya bowin' down

Then let me do the cuttin'



Yeah, with a fistful of steel, uh!

Come on, uh!

With a fistful of steel, uh!
