Colonial State of Mind

lyrics

some can no longer fight the dust
so im gonna bite it
they always knew that id burn out
but here i go igniting
i only have one right
in this colonial state
to give in & give up the fight
surrender myself to my fate

to die by my own hand
once felt like the only power that i had
someday ill go back to my homeland
where they buried my mom & dad

l weep for all the stolen chances
& all the misdirected hate
the internalized oppression
of living in a colonial state

(god bless those who havepity
on poor natives in the city
& who have the decency to look away
when we come out into the light of day..)
