Rage Against the Machine – Sleep Now In The Fire Lyrics 16 years ago
Alright, yes greed is a factor, but in the song he saying who he is. So, who is "the Nina, the Pinta, the Santa Maria. The Noose and the rapist the fields overseer. The agent of orange, the priest of Hiroshima." He is talking about the white man. Why do I say that? you might ask. Alright, who came over on the Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria... Christobal Colon or Christopher Colombus, a white man. Who hung and raped folks in times of slavery... white folks. Who watched over the slaves on the plantations... white folks. Who used the agent orange, and dropped the bomb on Hiroshima... white folks. So, if it has to do with greed you are partly right. Unless you mean the source of the greed.
