AmeriKKKa has established their plutocracy
in the name of this so-called democracy
Hat'riot Acts
remind me of Law 53
can't …
say nothing…
do nothing…
even hear nothing
Puerto Rico & Cuba driven by Spain
into a model of forced labor
of encomiendas and slavery
Puerto Rico & Cuba driven by the U.S.
into a model of forced labor
of casino resorts and slavery
Borikén and Cubanakán
two wings of one single dove
two sisters separated by time
yet, always joined by tropical love
one drowning in their Capitalism
the other they choke because of Socialism
all we wanted was to express our Familism
yet, we BOTH became the victims
of newfound AmeriKKKan Imperialism
so, here comes the Bushman
to tell us how we need to be
to attack
Iraq
even American "Blacks"
then, make us go fight in Cuba
in the name of racist laws and tax
we won't accept your "color lines"
because we believe in CULTURE FIRST
we won't live with the schism
that one "race" is better than another
cause that's how AmeriKKKa
got all of us dispersed…
…in the first place.
you became the "White" Oppressor
"Native" and "Black" aggressor
act like my English professor
looking at our lands
like some greedy tax assessor
with your "Black" and "Latino" puppet socks
by the names of Colin, Condoleeza and Fox
sitting around playing government
what a load of good ol' AmeriKKKan crock
it's just like Martha trying to buy more stock
in Enron
now you think you're fuckin' Agamemnon
murdering the Iraqi peoples
who had nothing to do with 9-11
only guilty of probably owning a 7-11
in your beautiful land of Irony
where only Masons hold the Master Key
you talk about Castro
and his apparent lack of human rights
and keep telling us that Boricuas
should be content
in our state of fucked-up plight
meanwhile…
your sorry "White" ass seems to have forgotten
the muthafuckas who was pickin' cotton
and cuttin' down cane
through new found self-education
our history's now been ascertained
those "worthless little colonies"
in the Carib-be-an
which you seem to love
to be continually overseein'
are finally fighting back
to rid our land of your political Crack
and the forced hysterectomies
your country gave
…our women
…our mothers
there is a reason why I have
no sisters and no brothers
trying to whiten us
maybe enlighten us
to the fact that we must fuck too much
as if we were mongrelized rabbits
trapped inside some experimental hutch
coming off like you Bugs Bunny
always in pursuit of getting that money
your ears turn to horns
as you constrict our crown of thorns
many Caribbean Patriots always warned
that you're really a DEVIL
who treats us all like low-level
sub-human
like Truman
who destroyed 200,000 Japanese
to show how AmeriKKKa rules the Seven Seas
in 1954, Lolita's flag unfurled
"Puerto Rico mus' be freeee!"
then, shot into the air
like a Latina Paul Revere
to let you know that the time has come
to rid ourselves of your Imperialist scum
a land where guns take 11,000 lives each year
where civil strife is poignantly set
to destroy me and my peers
go ask Bush's friend, good ol' Michael Moore
who publicly decided to break open that door
and release our freedom of speech
to finally show you as you really are
a bloodsucking AmeriKKKan leech
a TERRORIST ?!
me ?!
why ?!
because I actually DARE to disagree ?!!
too many years of being portrayed as criminal
simply living an existence that's subconditional
living our lives scared of constitutional
amendments
which muzzle us
like Law 53
can't speak against
the bourgeosie
scared our people to an intolerable degree
and enforced all your injustice
by "White" AmeriKKKan decree
I am "Latino"
not "Hispanic"
my loyalties are to the land
of the ORIGINAL Americans
60 million ancestors
who cry from the bloody rocks
death by musket fire
and, today, policemen's glocks
just WHERE is this "Land of Liberty" ?!
where we must defend to the end
as a lowly enlistee
though we're never allowed
to even once disagree ??
these stupid "White" men
our Oppressors who dictate
then turn around and recriminate
when this was ALL THEIR FAULT
we didn't ask to come here
you took us like war booty
we didn't ask you to go there
but, you felt it was your duty
to pillage and destroy
force us into the frontlines of your wars
miseducated and infiltrated
bring your hatred to our shores
Vieques, Puerto Rico
where World War II lasted 60 plus years
"and the rockets red glare
the bombs bursting in air
gave proof through the night"
that our flag was not there !!
respect who we are
respect who we want ourselves to be
people who believe in the power of family
paying only the fullest of homage
to the leaves of our ancestral tree
multi-dimensional beings
born from destructiveness and rapes
we straddle all these so-called "color lines"
drawn up by Spain
colored in by United Snakes
where they spit politics
like a vicious mamba
or make Richie Valens change his name
to sing "La Bamba"
how fucked UP is our land
which is not really under our command
we can't even vote for our so-called "President"
stuck in some political type of limbo
you treat our precious women
like some exotic kind of bimbo
our right…
to be who we want ourselves to be
our culture…
which for 107 years has yearned to be free
from this AmeriKKKan yoke
here… take a toke
of this weed
sniff some coke
or, go shoot up with dirty needles
and STAY on welfare
see if Section 8
pays your rent off with Medicare
nasty ass Rican
a nightmare of the AmeriKKKan dream
which has never been fulfilled
our pains muffled by our screams
education which has not been instilled
we are still floating in the void
traveling through as a colonized unemployed
your psychology has been explained
by some man named Sigmund Freud
forget that we're annoyed
of feeling all destroyed !!
"¡ mira, Boricua !"… " ¡ oye bien, Cubanito ! "
"recuerda que tu SIEMPRE tienes tu nación"
and we will ALWAYS be proud
don't mind screamin' this out loud
to be multi-racial
born from twisted roots
into a powerful Ceiba tree
of life
not strife
I no "e-speak-e de english"
"pero" I can do things with my hands
give me some sticks and I will play in a band
maybe box a couple of rounds
or, even hit a home run
all for the sake of your amusement
before our career is finally done
the Almighty Dollar…
rules our soul
Capitalism…
the AmeriKKKan goal
here to ruin us
like Cecil Rhodes
and his cancerous injections
Hitler's cousin
powered by a sense of imperfections
"these Puerto Ricans are dirty and thievish!!"
"… even degenerated !!"
we deserve to be annhilated
the rest of us…
just sent off to be relocated
to Hawaii then New York
while Governor Blanton Winship
that racist pig from the South
a muthafucka who was nothin' but mouth
sought to eradicate all our hope
and swung a noose tightly
around Albizu-Campos throat
Dr. Pedro Albizu-Campos came
to finally set the record straight
he stood right up and just proclaimed
Puerto Rico you will NEVER desecrate !
remember the Ponce Massacre of 1937
to commemorate the end of slavery ?
even though they mowed us down with guns
we stood our ground and showed our bravery
remember how they try to teach us
to tear down another Latino
before we finally became marketable
and they replaced us with Pacino
United Snakes of Amerikkka
"Trust in No One"
they don't have our backs
forget freedom, little spic
just tear your veins up with tracks
cause, we just like dope fiends
like that movie Fort Apache
or just like a crackhead
in need of a hit feeling all scratchy
not white enough for "Whites"
not black enough for "Blacks"
caught some where in the middle
your whole culture remains a riddle
to the United Snakes
who lays comfortably tanning on your beaches
while you sit up in a tenement
in Brooklyn and the Bronx
working for AFDC
probably living with HIV
see
AmeriKKKa wants your land
AmeriKKKa wants us to fail at being ourselves
keep us dependent
as if we ASKED to become part of this hell
AmeriKKKa is not for Puerto Ricans
or for Cubans
our flags are much too big to wave
amongst your other 50 slaves
freedom is a gimmick
freedom is a joke
here take anotha toke
stick yourself anotha poke
and just get h-iiiiigh
to forget how perplexed
is our state
not quite 51
even IF you threaten us with guns
time to be free
time to guarantee
our people need a future
first, remove the painful sutures
from our broken up souls
and our shoes with twenty holes
remove all the controls
from these Bush-inspired patrols
and set ourselves on the road
to finally rule our own abodes.
