bringing the ruckus, riding bikes, jolt cola and dance parties, music snobbery even though i have bad taste, smashing the state, martial arts, dodgeball, shooting guns as a praxical revolutionary activity, throwing down for real and not just talking about it, debunking gender race and class stereotypes, going there, knocking the teeth out of people who deserve it, hanging out with womyn who are angry about the straight white male power structure that i embody but fight against
I'd like to meet:
So next time you see fifty ninjas in all black fatigues
My regime runnin down your street
At the end of the block, we got the god damn cops
And their whole precinct, tell me what you see
I see buildings burning, motherfuckers trippin for a goddamn purpose
The police is nervous, cuz we done observed 'em
Now ninjas is thinking about murder
We ain't talking, no more, and we ain't squashin shit with po-po
And we ain't marching down the middle of the goddamn road
Cuz Martin got smoked
Ninjas ready for war, so get the fuck up, we fixin to set the city to fire
This time when we ride we burnin it down, turn this shit 'round
Keep your justice, your peace
And keep blessin the heat, and that there crooked officer
We won't stop blazin til they coughing blood
