Rage Against The Machine - Born of a Broken Man (Audio)

[@doQtorThomiX]

HEAVIEST RIFF EVER !!!!

[@keironhiggspoet]

My father's 27th year tomorrow. he was a broken man himself and his tragic passing has followed me like a shadow most of my life and the song's verses is a similar telling to how i sometimes cope with the loss. I'm an man myself now and although i'm forever broken by what happened, but have done countless work to better myself. sleep well dad.

[@bearbroussard5555]

For an unnecessarily long amount of time I've fought with my demons. My father and his neglect of my mother and I being the main culprit. Sitting here in my despair not wanting to become him I remembered this song. It has been two decades since last heard this message, and one thing remains clear. I am not him nor will I ever be. This is my anthem. Thank you Zack.

Thanks for sharing that. That is truly fucking inspiring. Very cool.

[@anwaralisayed9767]

My father has always been a confused man a broken man, who used anger as a tool to express himself. Even as i kid this song shed so much light for me about who he was and now as a man now i understand his struggles and his weaknesses but one thing always resonates with me that i would learn from his experience and would never do the same to my family including him. Thanks for the lesson abbu, i love you regardless of everything.

[@guerrillaradio9953]

Born of one, became one, bore another....apologies aren't good enough. You're 19 and already a better man than I will ever be. I'm prouder of you than words could ever express. Carry on, Will bud...

[@volkoff6357]

My father is an abusive nassasict that I have cut out of my life. I now have a son of my own and put significant effort to affirm the line of abuse ends with me. My son will not be plagued with the same pain and anger that resides within me. I was born of a broken man. I love you, Wyatt. "It's easier to build strong children than to repair broken men." -Frederick Douglass

[@gregorygunther852]

Respect to you! You're breaking the cycle of suffering and abuse not just for your son but for all who follow. You are truly a man. One's age does not guarantee manhood, it is one's deeds that do that. 🫶🏻💪🏻

[@samofrabat]

Nobody is gonna want the best for you but your father. You are born of a broken society, that tries to put parents in a negative light. Your society is a sick ill society. Parents are everything. Parent might not be the perfect people, but they are the perfect people to confide to who will be there for you no matter what. Your concept of abuse is the result of your society. A Father is supposed to discipline his children. I 1 million percent disagree with you and your whole culture.

Nothing about this song resonated more than the image of his mind "like moths trapped in a lampshade, forever awake, waiting for someone to turn off the light". I have felt exactly this way more often than anyone should have to.

How?

[@86thsamurai]

​@@michaelrajnacok7980I was a teen, just had my Mom die to cancer, was feeling extra shitty one day and drank too much. Got a 12 gauge and had the plans to paint the walls. Figured I'd go out with a bang listening to my fav band, only I really listened to the lyrics and it made me feel like even though this world sucks, I can be a warrior by keeping on living. Made me feel like I was hella weak by holding that gun barrel towards me. Still here today, still rockin and rollin. If you ever feel as low as I was, remember this cursed world wants to drag us down. It doesn't want us to succeed. Keep on living, cause we're all born of broken men, but we don't have to be broken, man.

This is an important song to me. It's been important to me for a long time. It's seen me through frustration, through loss, through grief. It continues to help me when times are dire. My thanks to Rage Against the Machine for giving me strength time and again over the years.

[@andydufresne87]

Samo hvala Zacku koji je sve shvatio na vrijeme i nije dopustio da RATM postane jedan od onih istrošenih bendova koji kroz godine postanu karikatura samih sebe sa tragično lošim albumima u odnosu na vrhunac kreativnosti, mala diskografija ali u svom značaju kolosalna i epski kvalitetna....

[@MsRandom303]

Hi Zack. If by chance you ever read this, here's what I'd like you to know: the reason this song validated me so much is because I've known someone like that too. Someone I thought I could fix, but I couldn't. Someone who evoked Jesus while at the same time hating people. Someone who treated me in ways I would never, ever, ever treat another human being. Someone I'm still afraid of despite years of silence. She was a broken woman, but I'll never be a broken woman. I can't thank you enough, man. I can't thank you enough.

Incredible song. Some of the most poetic, affecting lyrics I've ever heard. RATM have made many amazing, important songs, but THIS track ..... Truly phenomenal.

[@chicobond89]

I've been lucky to have a good father figure, and proud to still have him at age 68. But my dad himself didn't had a chance for his father to watch him grow. My grandfather passed away at age 43 and had progressive viewpoints for his era. My dad was a teenager when he passed away. He finally opened up about his feelings a few weeks ago. This one's for you dad!

[@androeaton7705]

Эта песня исследует темы идентичности, травмы и стойкости. Она рассказывает о человеке, который борется с призраками своего прошлого и пытается справиться с переполняющими его эмоциями. Первый куплет описывает страхи главного героя, словно охотники, которые преследуют его и захватывают его воспоминания. Упоминание о "границе потери" говорит о том, что боль, которую они испытывают, выходит за рамки личного опыта и распространяется на более широкий социальный контекст. Упоминание о "голом Иисусе" выражает чувство предательства и разочарования по отношению к религиозным и общественным структурам, которые должны были обеспечить утешение и поддержку. Припев служит мантрой стойкости, поскольку главный герой признает, что родился от сломленного человека, но сам не сломлен. Повторение фразы "never a broken man" подчеркивает решимость главного героя преодолеть травмы своего прошлого и не позволить им определять его настоящее или будущее.Во втором куплете душевное состояние главного героя сравнивается с осенними листьями, падающими с дерева. Метафорический язык говорит о потере контроля и цели в жизни. Образ сотни мотыльков, застрявших в абажуре, иллюстрирует ощущение ловушки и растерянности, которое испытывает главный герой. Третий куплет похож на первый, в нем страхи главного героя все еще преследуют его и захватывают его воспоминания, подчеркивая цикличность травматического опыта. Упоминание о том, что Иисуса раздели догола и изнасиловали дух, который он должен был воспитать, говорит о том, что общественные и религиозные силы продолжают подводить тех, кто страдает от травмы, увековечивая цикл боли.В целом это музыкальное произведение - это мощное выражение стойкости перед лицом травмы. Она подчеркивает трудности, связанные с восстановлением после прошлых травм, но также подчеркивает важность того, чтобы не позволять этому опыту определять настоящее или будущее человека.
