letra de 10 - to reflect - lil shitty

[intro]
chief oren lyons on its up to us and the fight is on
“when the peace maker finished this great work here a woman asked him, she said, well now
now that you have done all this how longs it gonna last. and he said thats up to you
so everything is in our hands, its up to us. there’s no lightning coming, no savior coming
no nothing coming, only the law, one way or another, don’t wait. so the fight is on i would say
not over, its not over at all i think we’re, we’re in good times, good time to be here
good time to be in a fight, this is good time, let’s see what you are made of
let’s see how strong you are.”

[verse]
it’s truly hard, to look in a mirror
at the same time, it reveals something clearer
than you realize, what you have been missing
all along, so please sit down and listen

spend some time, think about your actions
at the moment of release you feel that satisfaction
but if you don’t look back and think you are lackin’
and have a fraction of the data from your reaction
i am an observer, i am just askin’
what are your motives, what is the cost of inaction

do you have children, grandchildren what is your legacy
make every day matter, make sure to make memories
life isn’t about working, about money or treasuries
it’s about integrity and healthy longevity
it’s about community and loving your own identity
hand a pen to me and i would love to vent to thee
because the world around us is not the final configuration
our primal situation manifests as societal immiseration (capitulation)
and i’m just asking for a little reflection on the situation
because a lot of us are running out of patience
revolution is born from ignorance, stubbornness to change, and complacence
where is the understanding for the systemic limitations

[interlude]
the dig: scholars against genocide
“there is an active denial going on”

time to go back, way back! lets talk a little about history and the consequences of challenging the status quo!! let’s gooooo!

[verse]
let’s, think about the radicals throughout history
pushing society forward, illuminating contradictory
regimes where conservatives always claim victory
im blasting down these barricades with lyric artillery
ending guizot’s to metternich’s absolutist ministry
its 1848 again, from the center to the periphery!!

we revolting from france to the provinces of italy
for the economic promise of true liberty
for the impoverished and in undue captivity
for political crimes of our leftist caucus, activity
is blamed for the loss in capitalist productivity
but i shove my blade down my boss’s neck, with agility
b/c leading the revolution is my responsibility
so i step back, read, reflect, and respond with civility
but from the jacobins to young italy and the carbonari
leftists are always met with the state’s violent army
they can’t harm me, even if our ideas live in infamy
infinitely, capitalists can send their paid, infantry
instantly they spray their propaganda
with cops in hand the military shot the planners (everytime!)

execute them to preserve, the conservative order
of liberalism sacred privilege, of property and borders
privatization is just, robbing the public coffers
taking public goods to the market, as some initial public offers?

so lay off us, we ready to take the next step
popular sovereignty over the divine right of kings, what’s next?

straight democracy in the social realm or the economy
from finance that currently holds the monopoly, performing robbery
while ignoring inequality, and the main owner of property
making a f-cking mockery of the american polity

divide and conquer is their main ideology
a united working class, plus owning technology
means we get rid of the owner class methodically
the luddites smashed their machines and private property
its the 1% we are taking from, they need no apology
they would step on your neck in a second if you crawl out of poverty
[interlude]
revolutions podcast: 5.01 the conquest
“you get the heyday of the spanish conquistador system of private
individuals acquiring a royal license to explore, conquer, occupy
and exploit lands in teh spanish west indies, the point was to find
gold, silver, pearls, riches. the conquistadors were treasure hunters”

[verse]
it’s no different than the porfiriato and the hacendados
or big whites in haiti creating pardos and mulattos
like conquistadors pretending to show bravado
or jackson’s trail of tears from the seminole to navajo
or the neoliberal boys from chicago
or even todays fascist bandits in mar o lago

privatizing profit and property incentivizes greed
capitalism is just money institutionalized, as creed
you are not freed by individualism
it’s just a limit preventing syndicalism
preventing wisdom, preventing any ism
residing in your own personal prison
do what you are told, what a good little christian (growl like satan “what a good little christian”)

k!ll those socialists, isn’t that what jesus said?
nope! he whipped creditors and kept the poor and diseased fed
he wasn’t white, he was palestinian not american or european
he hung with prostitutes, homeless, not the rich. what bible are you readin’?

we don’t need easter zombies we need to end gerontocracy
to save our pathetic democracy from theocracy
as they sacrifice us to fulfill their deranged protestant prophecy
i’m a godless atheist not bogged down with mythology

speaking from the metropole i empathize with the colonies
the super profits of imperialism propped up our economies
bribing labor leaders and labor aristocracy through policy
we the people have no choice these are prerogative methodologies

i’m a socialist revolutionary reminiscent of many prodigies
zapata narrates historical anthologies
this was a dip back in time, i hope you followed me
as i reflected and dissected capitalist ontology

psychological propaganda like its a commodity
im lost for words i have no more terminology

[interlude]
reflection is a key ingredient to success
if you don’t look back and are constantly learning
you will make the same mistakes that others had made previously

[verse]
reflection is just a personal dissection of time
a set of inspections, in short, a collection of signs
a deep connection, to your internal imperfection
a direct line, into your source of introspection
and that’s fine, everyone has their own direction
but stepping on others rights, that crosses the line

like when marx edited the newspaper of the rhine
prussia’s wilhelm the 4th crushed it in the name of divine
materialism is forced upon us by design
a non-benign force combined, with the decline
make a revolutionary force, inclined to redesign the
entirety of society to enshrine a new polarity
combine new and old, to refine a new clarity
bold dialectics synthesizes worker prosperity
that its socialism or capitalist barbarity
a global capitalist system or international worker solidarity

these are not equal and have major disparity
don’t let anarcho capitalists fool you with their parody

hierarchy is inherent in capitalist corporation
authority exists to enforce private property relations
that’s not anarchy by any specification
just a bigger mess of society, you are making
we need to band together and use cooperation
at a base level and start the conversation
private profit is theft not taxation
just to pitch in, to build the foundation
local community builds their own identification
partic-p-tin! give the people self determination!

[chorus]
and the day will come when we all end neoliberalism and this economic prison
and the day will come when we all destroy capitalism, scr-p class divisions like past apparitions!

[verse]
time to reflect, reject this bullsh-t of owing debt
the future i am sewin next, slowly proposes texts
of ancient african leaders and my chinese rolodex
we are part of the sans culotte and titanic lower decks
through the salt and iron debate, i’ve grown adept
at criticizing capitalism, cuz we all know its inept

we know it can’t stand up to size of the moment
free market rodents, require you provide some atonement
and wait for insurance to catch up, with the unknown its?
a joke compromising policy, with profitable opponents

investors don’t care if its someone needs the home its
just recurring revenue and a speculative component
to own it, is just another mark in the belt
its the iskra, a spark to compel

not to bow down to some fake invisible hand
of rehypothecation, derivatives, and monopolized land
markets say you will own nothing, it’s just supply and demand
privatization is on both, sides of the plan
comply and be d-mned or question their capitalist brand

collapse is the plan, to create a lapse in demand, like a flash in a pan
that allows disaster capitalists, to crash the system, to sn-tch up all the cash and the land
as fast as they can taking livelihoods, homes, and scoffing as if it’s the only system that’s rational man

that’s never never land, and you can call me peter pan
just a little creativity, can improve how we feed our fam
we’re not asking for an economy fully planned
just control of resources, f-ck global market demand!

[chorus]
and the day will come when we all end neoliberalism and this economic prison
and the day will come when we all destroy capitalism, scr-p class divisions like past apparitions!

[verse]
the subaltern, the under others, named by gramsci
describes capitalism as a scheme no greater than ponzi’s
yes, intervention in the market described by the guanzi
china knew in 400 bc this isn’t some quandary!!!

revolutions blast away and castigate
the aristocracy, pick your time period, you don’t have to wait
look back at shays’, rebellion, or frances’ place de greve (plass de grave)
don’t go through the official channels where they pack the ace

it’s time to reflect on what has worked, burning private property
riots and hanging the n0bility, papacy, and aristocracy
we are tolerant and extend equality to everyone possibly
except to those who are tolerant of poverty

no one is illegal, no market is informal
it’s not for the capitalists to define what mode of life is normal
it’s a malthusian trap, destroying every last morsel
of the fabric that’s moral, as profit becomes immortal

the conspiracy of equals, the plan of ayala
give the land to the people, don’t worship the dollar
the first son of the people, not the mighty father
helping the sick and feeble, not yolking them by the collar
not just cannon fodder for the capitalists and monarchists

i live between proudhon and bakunin’s anarchists
and blanqi and marx’s vanguardists
the most important part is, not to be prescriptive
but let the people decide, not the rich or scriptures
not the divine assh0l-s or the preachers
not the wealthy or elite charlatans or fast speakers
just workers from programmers to f-cking street sweepers

[chorus]
and the day will come when we all end neoliberalism and this economic prison
and the day will come when we all destroy capitalism, scr-p class divisions like past apparitions!
