Honestly, I got a lot on my mind
Sometimes I'm overwhelmed by all the thoughts and leave em' behind
See I gotta a baby I'm chasin' and I'm facin' the next stage of parenthood, just like my parents said I would
At the same time I keep wakin' up to bloodshed
And feeling guilty that my tax dollars are filthy
"Why do we keep going round in circles?"
Round and round and round
Taking bout' metaphorical chains and cycles of pain. Remember, you don't need a sundial in the rain
Palestine gets genocide by Israel
Sudan, Congo, MacBook, and conflict materials
I'm writin my reps and takin the steps to divest from this illusion, based on confusion
Aaron Bushnell set to fire
Reminding us to get up off our asses and end empire.
It's election year, politicians pushin' fear
People are nervous, corruption in 'public' service, Israeli tech to observe us...
"Remember kids the I.O.F. trains American police"
Man-made famine is a crime against humanity, non-sensical evangelical Christianity poisoned with vanity, causing calamity.
I'm overwhelmed by the audacity
From the Spanish inquisitional, to murdered Aboriginals, Columbus, Netanyahu, Bush, and Biden: war criminals.
Land theft is written into manifesto, occupation building concentration, West Bank ghettoes
Here comes another tone-def post on gun-violence from Kamala. Meanwhile a teen was shot in Ramallah. Bullets and bombs, mangling kids that are searching for moms, funded by every U.S. president since Truman.
That shit's (in)Human
The second verse is always interesting
And I'm gon let you in on something just in time for Spring:
I used to try to be poetic
Now I'm more kinetic
Gotta spill the thoughts inside me, it's exhausting
Amputations without anesthetic,
Toddlers wearing prosthetics,
Children mining cobalt, thats pathetic!
Keep your eyes on Rafah, not talking bout Nadal, but the genocide committed by Israel
Then the algorithm said "shut him up!"
Views down, engagement down, no comments, but lots of people wakin' up to our sick colonial project
Starting with Theo Hertzl displacement was the object
Say it with me now:
"There's no justification for the death of tens of thousands"
The folks in gaza scrapin' flour from the gravel, they unravel as we swipe up to the next f*cking advertisement
So many minds infected
Can't see it's all connected
The black and brown neglected, Palestinians rejected,
Propaganda perfected keeping oligarchs elected
And then they they lie and suppress how much they profit off distress,
Dropping vetoes at the UN
No remorse for what they're doin'
But hear the winds of change, we will deliver
A world of free people from the sea to the river
Are you offended by my words?!
Well I'm offended by white phosphorus burning through adolescent bones,
And people buried under the stone of ex-homes, reduced to rubble by targeted drones
The ruling class has got a problem on their hands, ivy leagues arresting students organizing with demands
The more you try to silence us the louder we become
It's evident the U.S. doesn't stand for freedom
So f*ck your pledge of allegiance
When you're cause of global grievance
We'll never shut up, we'll never forget
The way so many choose to look away from from human suffering
People made disposable for resource plundering
Onwards with the protest and financial disruption, the only language of corruption
Bring about a reconstruction of society
Uprisings from the rural to the plaza
Fight for freedom finally for all the people of Gaza
Continues the saga...
And free Palestine!
How many have to die on camera before our anger is valid?!
