This is my Happy New Year message to Iran and Iranians and a tribute to their courage and perseverance, (I know its not technically Iranian new year but whatever) let's hope 2010 is your last year of tyranny.

I chose this song because it captures the mood of where Iran is at, a revolutionary mixture of hope and defiance, enjoy.

Rage Against The Machine
War Within a Breath

Lyrics:

Every official that come in
Cripples us leaves us maimed
Silent and tamed
And with our flesh and bones
He builds his homes

Southern fist
Rise through tha jungle mist
Clenched to smash power so cancerous
Black flag and a red star
A rising sun loomin over Los Angeles
Yes for Raza livin in La La
Like Gaza on to tha dawn Intifada
Reach for the lessons tha masked pass on
Seize tha metropolis
Its you its built on

Everything can change on a new years day
Everything can change on a new years day
Everything can change on a new years day
And everything changed on a new years day, come on.

War within a breath
Its land or death

Their existence is a crime
Their seat, their robe, their tie
Their land deeds
Their hired guns
Theyre tha crime

Shots heard underground round the rapture
Worlds eye captured
At last is a Mexican pasture
Tha masked screaming land or deathWithin a breath
A war from the depth of time
Shot four puppet governors in a line
Shook all tha world bankers
Who think they can rhyme
Shot the landlords who knew it was mine
Yes its a war from the depth of time

And everything can change on new years day
And everything can change on new years day
Everything can change on a new years day
And everything can changes on new years day

War within a breath
Its land or death

Its land or death

  • I thought the US genuinely wanted to help Iranian people and their oil efforts :)

  • @Ashadowtotheworld they are struggling about the gvernor tha US brought to them ... us is the only one to blame for EVERYTHING i hate this country . They are no people with mond they are animals based on onsticts . All of its presidents couse war to the other countries for oil or diamonts etc . The governor in iran its brought by us to couse troubles and abuse the people there only for the profit .

  • @Ashadowtotheworld it is but someone need to make a video of the people who are strggling all around the world not just iran

    its a sick video though

  • @riviliwa oh, you were actually saying something.....I thought you decided to fuck around and smack the keyboard a bunch ;)
