Under the Stars

They fought
The Mexican.
Then they fought their own
Now they’re found in bronze up on top of stone
In a square, saying, «Where all of this has gone?»
Some revere, some swear at the plaque that you sits upon
Of course, this is dependent on political discourse
At times, you dismissed.
At times, it’s pitchforks
Causes and rallies from the Shenandoah Valley to Cali
Where supporters could still tally as much as the Gold Rush
Ayyo, hold up.
God didn’t tell you to control us
Your open ears start to close up, but breathe easy ‘cause
Your values are in line with the demented mind that now control us
The tactician need
Not respond, just assess the situation
Observe when something’s did a successful integration
Sat in on a million kinds of conversations
Black, white giving type tight size denomination
You’ve seen love, seen hate, seen love break
Hate, seen hate break people with cause
These are people who believe in their cause.
You might not even
Believe anymore from the time that you spent
Under the stars
Is that The Dawn Express and the Statue of Liberty?
In fact, history shows your foundation
On negativity.
Hate-driven society
Birthed in a racist century where ignorance
Dominated.
They keep sparking acts of bigotry
Those officers being praised fought to continue slavery
While waving flags of Confederacy, not promoting
Democracy.
Blue Klux Klan affiliates all about
That white supremacy.
Now you want me to honor those
Against my ancestry?
Please.
Let Babylon
And its evils, cultures burn down.
False prophets
Not worthy of royalty, don’t deserve crowns
No accolades, accommodations given for taking L’s
Why should we uplift Confederate racists?
Rebel?
No love for hateful crusades spawned from Hell
With the horrifying story of genocide to tell
In Amerikkka, most-wanted, ghost-haunted.
Don’t
Flaunt it.
No honest broke promises of freedom
Still keep our domes free, off-the-top lifestyle
Maneuvering through Star-Spangled, trying not to get tangled down
Feed the babies strict knowledge in the form of hip sonics
Dishonest, devilish men?
That’s why he spit knowledge
False Declaration Proclaiming my Emancipation
Screaming, «Don't shoot!
No!»
Still got my hands up, waiting
My soul’s aching from trying to be patient, and withholding
My protesting statements from all these brutal arrangements
That’s why we make a call to the ancients: for guidance and
Protection in these times so forsaken.
My people
Awaken, visualize a space and time
That’s safe from crime.
Go ‘head, shape your mind
To a peace that we could barely fathom but definitely deserve
To have when you fill in the blanks and read the captions like:
Monuments are not about history.
These monuments are about hatred,
and we need to make that very clear.
And I just want to bring up a point,
just to show you how history repeats itself, even when history is.
Takiya Thompson, the person who took down this Confederate statue,
who was a part of it, she was arrested.
Now let me tell you something.
And Durham, North Carolina is my hometown.
But hold on!
DeAndre!
DeAndre Harris!
Nobody has yet to be arrested for it.
But the person who took
down the… y’all were quick to arrest this woman.
But we have, on video,
six people—eight people—beating up DeAndre Harris and no one has been arrested.
We have a problem—our society has a problem—and if you don’t believe it,
look at what has happened after these events.
I’m upset.
I’m sorry,
I just can’t deal with this.
I can’t deal because it’s too much.
It’s too much, and we allow this to happen, and it’s not right
