"the role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistable." - toni cade bambara
"an artist's duty is to reflect the times" - nina simone
lyrics
verse 1:
i don’t wanna write a banger
i wanna reflect the times
stop business as usual
stop the genocide
it’s land back
from phillipines to palestine
time to uprise
till we’re all free
fuck individualism
this is collective wisdom
no more consumerism
tune into global rhythms
we make the revolution irresistable
leanin on each other, holdin them accountable
they don’t give a fuck about us but we will still talk shit,
we designin graphics, we recitin’ telephone scripts
we got our receipts, local archivists,
flood an inbox, the mayor’s office
we calling his shit, don’t be complicit
we boost the info, and we bear witness
we takin our lead from indigenous
we unstoppable, we won’t stay silent
verse 2:
keffiyehs on the street, traffic blockage
a politician sips his cocktail and funds the rockets
we yelling ceasefire, your hands got blood on em,
he licks his fingers, calls on his minions
they turned humans into robot cops
slaves to the empire, brains are white washed
they put whiteness in religious laws
gave them rights to enslave
mass graves / land theft/ prison jobs
real love’s in decolonization
total liberation of all nations
stop the killings! end the occupation!
changin usin radical imagination, together we’re amazing

La dame aux robes...j'adore son look en spectacle. J'ai une photo d'elle lorsqu'elle se déplaçait avec son équipe. Elle était très protégée à l'époque dans mes souvenirs. Lavinie Cloutier
