Rage Against the Machine - Sleep Now in the Fire lyrics

Yeah the world is my expense
The cost of my desire
Jesus blessed me with it's future
And I protect it with fire
So raise your fists and march around
Just don't take what you need
I'll jail and bury those committed
And smother the rest in greed
Crawl with me into tomorrow
Or I'll drag you to your grave
I'm deep inside your children
They'll betray you in my name

Hey, hey sleep now in the fire
Hey, hey sleep now in the fire

The lie is my expense the scope of my desire
The party blessed me with it's future
And I protect it with fire

I am the Niña, the Pinta, the Santa Maria
The noose and the rapist
The fields' overseer the agents of orange
The priests of Hiroshima
The cost of my desire sleep now in the fire

Hey, hey sleep now in the fire
Hey, hey hey sleep now in the fire

For it's the end of history
It's caged and frozen still
There is no other pill to take
So swallow the one that makes you ill

The Niña, the Pinta, the Santa Maria
The noose and the rapist
The fields' overseer the agents of orange
The priests of Hiroshima
The cost of my desire sleep now in the fire
Yeah

Sleep now in the fire sleep now in the fire
Sleep now in the fire sleep now in the fire
