the poverty of philosophy - immortal technique lyrics

Loading...

most of my latino and black people who are struggling to get food, clothes and shelter in the hood are so concerned with that, that philosophising about freedom and socialist democracy is usually unfortunately beyond their rationale.
they don’t realize that america can’t exist without separating them from their ident-ty, because if we had some sense of who we really are, there’s no way in h-ll we’d allow this country to push it’s genocidal consensus on our homelands.
this ignorance exists, but it can be destroyed
you see, third world countries are rich places, abundant in resources, and many of these countries have the capacity to feed their starving people and the children we always see digging for food in trash on commercials.
but plutocracies, in other words a government run by the rich such as this one and traditionally oppressive european states, force the third world into buying overpriced, unnecessary goods while exporting huge portions of their natural resources
i’m quite sure that people will look upon my att-tude and sentiments and look for hypocrisy and hatred in my words. my revolution is born out of love for my people, not hatred for others
you see, most of latinos are here because of the great inflation that was caused by american companies in latin america. aside from that, many are seeking a life away from the puppet democracies that were funded by the united states; places like el salvador, guatemala, peru, colombia, nicaragua, ecuador and republica dominicana, and not just spanish-speaking countries either, but haiti and jamaica as well
as different as we have been taught to look at each other by colonial society, we are in the same struggle and until we realize that, we’ll be fighting for scr-ps from the table of a system that has kept us subservient instead of being self-determined
and that’s why we have no control over when the embargo will stop in cuba, or when the bombs will stop dropping in vieques
but you see, here in america the att-tude that is fed to us is that outside of america there live lesser people. “f-ck them, let them fend for themselves.” no, f-ck you,
they are you
no matter how much you want to dye your hair blonde and put fake eyes in,
anorexic standard of beauty
how many diamonds you buy from people who exploit your own brutally to get them
, no matter what kind of car you drive or what kind of fancy clothes you put on, you will never be them. they’re always gonna look at you as nothing but a little monkey. i’d rather be proud of what i am, rather than desperately trying to be something i’m really not, just to fit in. and whether we want to accept it or not, that’s what this culture or lack of culture is feeding us
i want a better life for my family and for my children,
but it doesn’t have to be at the expense of millions of lives in my homeland
the generals of the armies that are mostly conservatives those are the real mother-f-ckers that i need to bring it to,
not the poor, broke country–ss soldier that’s too stupid to know sh-t about the way things are set up
in fact, i have more in common with most working and middle-cl-ss white people than i do with most rich black and latino people.
as much as racism bleeds america, we need to understand that cl-ssism is the real issue
many of us are in the same boat and it’s sinking, while these bougie mother-f-ckers ride on a luxury liner, and as long as we keep fighting over kicking people out of the little boat we’re all in, we’re gonna miss an opportunity to gain a better standard of living as a whole
in other words, i don’t want to escape the plantation i want to come back, free all my people, hang the mother-f-cker that kept me there and burn the house to the god d-mn ground.
i want to take over the encomienda
and give it back to the people who work the land
you cannot change the past but you can make the future, and anyone who tells you different is a f-cking lethargic devil. i don’t look at a few token latinos and black people in the public eye as some type of achievement for my people as a whole. most of those successful individuals are sell-outs and house negros
but, i don’t consider brothers a sell-out if they move out of the ghetto.
poverty has nothing to do with our people. it’s not in our culture to be poor. that’s only been the last 500 years of our history
look at the last 2000 years of our existence and what we brought to the world in terms of science, mathematics, agriculture and forms of governmen
t. you know the idea of a confederation of provinces where one federal government controls the states?
the europeans who came to this country stole that idea from the iroquois league. the idea of impeaching a ruler comes from an aztec tradition. that’s why montezuma was stoned to death by his own people cause he represented the agenda of white spaniards once he was captured. not the aztec people who would become mexicans
so in conclusion, i’m not gonna vote for anybody just cause they black or latino. they have to truly represent the community
and represent what’s good for all of us proletariat
porque sino entonces te mando por el carajo cabron gusano hijo de puta, seramos libre pr-nto, viva la revolucion, viva la revolucion
