about

(I wanted to say Humanity’s the Family and Fuck Racism. I am a white man, and I felt like, especially doing a hip hop song, the respectful proper thing to do was to have a multiracial, multicultural conversation and invite other MC’s to give their perspective, which I, as I white man, cannot speak for. So I invited musicians and mc’s from 5 different races to create this song with me. The beat is philosophically harmonious with the message of the song, as it’s intentionally a punk rock trap banger, both punk rock and trap you’d think would be very different, and on the surface they are, but deep down, both cultures and musical styles have more in common than most realize.)

lyrics

Yo fuck racism
It’s a stupid division
When the world that we live in
Is now a global village
If we want survivalism
End this tribalism
That is a prison of division
a competition
Of power rape and pillagin’
So the best use of privilege is
To combat oppression
So let us level out our positions
Give lessons to the children
Get in where we fit in
And then change the system
Cuz this isn’t the world
That I want to live in
For real then
Cuz we can kill em all
And build a wall
But then I have to ask yall
What type of world are we building
One designed to fall
See greed be the monster
We can’t feed any longer
When together we’re stronger
So whether black white
Red yellow beige or brown
We came to get down
Like a rainbow
So oh don’t you know
Our pot of gold
Is this moment of harmony
That we hold truth be told
If you look within beneath the skin
We’re basically the same
Yet we play this game
Of differences so
Who's really down
To change up the sound
Spread the love around
And break the walls down!
