Zack de la Rouda - Zack De La Rouda Advocates Indigenous Rights lyrics

[Verse: Zack de la Rouda] Pardon my seriousness Cause honestly I'm hiding my furiousness At every time I try to write, when... Some of the more vocal hate-filled fakes ask "Zack, why you try to rap if every track you make is hella lame?" I reply in the form of a poem "We're enslaved, and I'm tryna break the cage bars I've been saying all along I dedicate these songs to the reservation." Hold your head! I've been begging for desegregation For the defenders of the tao who reject the Matrix And see the difference between nation-states and just some nations I keep on singing to exorcise all these demons; Even if I never win anything I'll claim a victory if a seed of mine is breathing In even three generations, after civilization crashes Cause I'll have faced the fascists I have seen the revelation of the wild: it is Eden We'd still be in the garden if the snake ain't gave Eve evil I'm trying to make that apple be uneaten while we s** the seeds... The captain's sleeping while the raft is sinking... That's why I'm damn near screaming Stuck with my family in steerage; We had some grandiose dreams... Now we're just all fast asleep here We live in fear of the shepherd But I've been scared of the sheep Because they're lost when they flock Call the fox for their freedom You know he got that bona fide premium; He treat 'em how I treat these Soma'd rappers when I eat 'em I don't know why y'all listening To watered-down re-runs of the same thing Complacent while Gaia's screaming, "Save me!" I stamp and chant with my hand out on my rattle For the people who could still make it rain with a rain dance No, I am not anti-flag That green and black is on my back: Johnny Cash with my weed-plant sneakers on I map my plans My strategy for this battle is to be a catalyst For as many people as I can manage That's why I'm on this camera rapping: Trying to make this army mad big But some people always saying, "Stop, you wack, kid..." I tell 'em "My name is Zack, and if you're not so inclined To listen to what I rhyme, I'm begging you catch this line I've been trying to remind you: This is the biggest crisis of all time It's rewild or die (Truth.)
