Clear the Lane Lyrics


Hey, yo, let me be front
This is real and not a stunt
I'm comin' to the forefront
Shovel for the rapper and clear the lane
'Cos this jam is like a tomahawk chopTeach ya, I'll never stop droppin' topics
Vocal power? Yes, I got it
On Central but they're tryin' to clamp it down
Flag was wavin' the wrong way, so I shot it downGet down and at the same time
Come up, down, this is a crime that shut us up
I don't give a fuck
'Cos the words and the thoughts still hit
And like I said, it's not a skitJump another hit, yeah
Ya know I don't need a drum kit
Make 'em say, Aww, shit
The rebellion is true and legitDown, get down and clear the lane
Down, get down and clear the lane
Down, get down and clear the lane
Down, get down, yeahThe rebel, you'll never disable

Defiance with the cards upon the table
Pulling cards, keep the governments in check
Yo, I think we need a new deckNever could trust a Philla busta
The mic is like a fist and it'll bust ya
With words cold hittin' with the underground
And now you're checkin' out the new soundLive hit, a live pop, live rock
And ya don't stop
It goes on and on and on
Who's a threat? C'mon, the war is onDown, get down and clear the lane
Down, get down and clear the lane
Down, get down and clear the lane
Down, get down, clear the laneFace start droppin', our words are never safe
Fightin' with your [Incomprehensible]
'Til I'm where I gotta be
I challenge, don't sweat it, now don't you forget it
Check me? What? Wait, you better slow downRealize I can't confine my rhyme to a beat
I need cash so when I'm cool, there's never ever weak
Places are fluid and diluted and complete
Check me once, calm down and take a seatStrip the chains, the freedom's there
But then it's goneClear the lane
Clear the lane
Clear the lane
Clear the laneDefiance rippin' up the south set
Every time I'm grippin' the mic, it is a sound threat
Resist against the suckers that bring the bass in
Timmy C, bring that bass inClear the lane
Clear the lane
Clear the lane
Clear the lane

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Rage Against the Machine is an American rap metal band, formed in 1991 in Los Angeles, California. They are often mis-categorized as nu metal or rapcore. The band's line-up comprises vocalist Zack De La Rocha, guitarist Tom Morello, bassist Tim Commerford and drummer Brad Wilk. Critics have noted Rage Against the Machine for its "fiercely polemical music, which brewed sloganeering leftist rants against corporate America, cultural imperialism, and government oppression into a Molotov cocktail of hardcore punk, hip hop, alternative metal, and funk." Rage Against the Machine drew inspiration from early heavy metal instrumentation, as well as rap acts such as Afrika Bambaataa, Public Enemy and Beastie Boys.

In 1992, the band released its self-titled debut album, which became a commercial success, leading to a slot in the 1993 Lollapalooza. The band did not release a follow-up record until 1996, with Evil Empire. The band's third album The Battle of Los Angeles was released in 1999. During their initial nine year run, they became one of the most popular and influential political bands in contemporary music.

Shortly after breaking up in 2000, the band released the cover album Renegades. De la Rocha & Morello both started low-key solo careers; the rest of the band formed the rock supergroup Audioslave with Chris Cornell, then-former frontman of Soundgarden, which disbanded in 2007, and in April of that year, Rage Against the Machine performed together for the first time in seven years at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. The band has continued to perform at many live venues and festivals around the world since 2007 but have not recorded any new studio material, as of yet.

Due to a popular Facebook Campaign in 2009, the band managed to beat Joe McElderry, winner of the X Factor 2009, to the UK Christmas number one spot. This broke the chain of X Factor winners reaching the Christmas number one spot. To celebrate, Rage Against the Machine held a free gig to show their gratitude towards their fans.
