AN ACT OF LIBERATION
Peabody‘s drag lines across the landscape
like militarized borders that carve this police state
1974 government pens wrote, “relocate”
divide and conquer, 14,000 and today?
We know this nightmare because it repeats
’till something breaks
An act of liberation
Yes we all know it’s the rich against the poor
class, race, gender, and mother earth just a resource
globalization is colonization and colonization is always war…
We know this nightmare because it repeats
’till something breaks
An act of liberation!
Industrial capitalist hetero-patriarchy
We know the story of so many manifested destinies
From the broken bones of broken homes and violated boarding school dreams
We know this nightmare because it repeats
’till something breaks
An act of liberation!
From Big Mountain to Palestine, relocation is genocide.
We stand against all wars and occupation
Against nationalism, against state sponsored terrorism
From Big Mountain to Palestine, relocation is genocide.
We stand against all wars and occupation
Against nationalism, state sponsored terrorism
From Big Mountain to Palestine, it repeats
the free market non-profit industry
accountable to foundations, no, not community
paychecks activism, for justice or just them?
But this aint no revolutionary commodity…
It’s an act of liberation
’till something breaks
An act of liberation
An act of liberation! An act of liberation! An act of liberation!
’till something breaks
An act of liberation
