No Longer Relevant

from Democracide by Upinatem

lyrics

Clinging to a door as you go floating by what broken levees just laid waste to: decades filled with history. What if it had been downtown Salt Lake City or some other WASP-invested space? Would slow response still be a mystery? Racism is more than just not getting hired, or riding the back of the bus, or COINTELPRO, some dogs and fire hose. They promise to protect you. It's their platform for their lies that re-elect. Now you see what priority you are: ignored. I'm sick of this fucking stupid, racist, asinine, destructive paradigm that dominates our culture, holds its filthy ground. It's not OK to ignore just because it's ingrained and affects most old people. If you want change then we must change the most profound. I won't back down. I can't lie down. I will not carry on your hatred. I refuse to propagate your xenophobic, inbred, white trash bigot point of view. I refuse to raise my children with your racist legacy. This hatred ends with you. I'm much too cynical to think that you will ever change, but there's one thought that helps me sleep at night. Your credibility has weakened; you're no longer relevant. I'm wondering if you were ever right.
