lyrics

The aesthetics of hunger
Contain the most noble forms of violence
Peace
Only when the colonial form is silenced
Different type of battle rap
Where cats you know they're coming strapped
For cash with gats to take the land these motherfuckers stolen back
They got beef in the streets
We build the slaughterhouse
St Just at the podium till all the pig heads rollin' out
That means dead heat, a dead beat, our streets
The people are the weapons forged to bring death to the bourgeoisie
Felony raps, poison blankets in the trap
This plague is the new coke rap
Now it's time for the rabid bite back
Quiet dogs yap hard chasin lures round the track

Cuz plague slang is the new coke rap
It’s time to give every poisoned blanket back
They claim we selling crack, but they be doing that
Motherfucker this ain’t back in the day
And you do hear me though

Hey yo, gat scars, rap bars, cop cars burnin’
Let’s claim that whole future space to which we’ve been yearnin’
Claim king with guillotines swing is what we’re bringin
A discourse on colonialism ya’ll

A nation regenerates itself only on heaps of corpses
The last shall be first and the first last
The vessel of revolution can only arrive upon seas of blood
The last shall be first and the first last
In these shadows from whence a new dawn will break
It is you who are the zombies
At the end of capitalism, there is Hitler
