Lyrics Renegades of Funk - Rage Against the Machine

No matter how hard you try, you can't stop us now
No matter how hard you try, you can't stop us now

We're the renegades of this atomic age
This atomic age of renegades
Renegades of this atomic age
This atomic age of renegades

Since the Pre-historic ages and the days of ancient Greece
Right down through the Middle Ages
Planet Earth kept going through changes
And then the Renaissance came and times continued to change
Nothing stayed the same, but there were always renegades
Like Chief Sitting Bull, Tom Paine
Dr. Martin Luther King, Malcolm X
They were renegades of their time and age
So many renegades

We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk

From a different solar system, many many galaxies away
We are the force of another creation
A new musical revelation
And we're on this musical mission to help the others listen
And groove from land to land singin' electronic chants like

Zulu nation
Revelations
Destroy our nations
Destroy our nations
Destroy our nations
Destroy our nations
Destroy our nations
Destroy our nations

Now renegades are the people with their own philosophies
They change the course of history
Everyday people like you and me
We're the renegades, we're the people
With our own philosophies
We change the course of history
Everyday people like you and me
C'mon

We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk

Poppin', sockin', rockin' puttin' a side of hip-hop
'Cause where we're goin', there ain't no stoppin'
Poppin', sockin', rockin', puttin' a side of hip-hop
'Cause where we're goin', there ain't no stoppin'
Poppin', sockin', rockin' puttin' a side of hip-hop
'Cause we're poppin', sockin', rockin' puttin' a side of hip-hop
Poppin', sockin', rockin' puttin' a side of hip-hop

We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk

We're teachers of the funk
And not of empty popping
Blessed with the force and the sight of electronics
With the bass, the treble, the horns, and our vocals
'Cause every time I pop into the beat, we get fresh

There was a time when our music
Was something called the Bay Street beat
People would gather from all around
To get down to the big sound
You had to be a renegade in those days
To take a man to the dance floor

Say "Jam sucker" ("Jam sucker)
Say "Jam sucker" ("Jam sucker)
Say "Groove sucker" ("Groove sucker)
Now groove sucker ("Groove sucker")
Say "Dance sucker" ("Dance sucker")
Say "Dance sucker" ("Dance sucker")
Say "Move sucker" ("Move sucker")
Now move sucker ("Move sucker")

Say "Jam sucker" ("Jam sucker)
Say "Jam sucker" ("Jam sucker)
Say "Groove sucker" ("Groove sucker)
Now groove sucker ("Groove sucker")
Say "Dance sucker" ("Dance sucker")
Say "Dance sucker" ("Dance sucker")
Say "Move sucker" ("Move sucker")
Now move sucker ("Move sucker")

We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk

We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk
