jer (aus) - decolonize yr mind lyrics

[verse 1]
i’ve been dreaming of an alternate reality
free of colonizers severing our history
with a connection to land and earth identity
never feel like where i belong is a mystery
not a ragtag plastic personality
built upon everything we grew up on tv
isolated in the suburbs from community
the power’s unprecedented in unity

[chorus]
and oh i know someday we won’t beg and plea
for us to be set free
from this society

[verse 2]
there’s another reality
where the world ain’t hurting and n+ggas like me
ain’t just surviving, we vibing, living life, and children ain’t crying (d+mn)
or dying from a broken nation
families torn apart, incarceration
trading hoodie for hips to straight gentrification
and assimilate into a world, alienation
even with the evil empire reigning
plus every single system working against us
we’re still trendsetters, go+getters
with nothing we make a world better
could you imagine if we never got robbed of our land (god d+mn)
and our labor wasn’t stolen by the bourgeoisie (zee!)
if we weren’t targeted by the law
but we’re coming out on top whether you like it or naw
dystopia is where the system thrives
built off violent screams (violent screams!)
but the people are gonna wake up and break up
because it’s not a dream (not a dream!)
we’re gonna eat the rich, we’re gonna feed the kids
when there’s nothing left to eat (left to eat!)
and y’all been warned about your greed
exploiting for your salaries
[chorus]
and oh i know someday we won’t beg and plea
for us to be set free
from this society

[outro]
ya, ya ? 2021 baby!
yes sir, yes sir!
?
abolish the police!
abolish ?
abolish ? ? ? ? ? ? free
but we can not be free if we ? ? stolen land
we can not be free ? ? ? stolen labor
but we can not be free if we refuse ?
?
the system that is in place ? ? ? ?
has a lasting affect on all of us
racism, s+xism, ableism, h0m+phobia, transphobia
? ? ? of that system
will be ? for the people
but before we can colonize this world
we must first colonize our minds
programed our entire life by the empire
we must ? ? ? in our head
but we can not build a better future
without insisting a brighter future
we ? live in a world
were the people are getting ?
with ? people of the power
and when the people look out for each other
we must ? that this is within ourselves
within our relationships
and within our community
so tell me, what do you think?
