MTV, I-EYE-ME-ME-MUSIC, I WASTE MY TIME--MY PEOPLE ARE BEING KILLED

changed it a little from original post

Inspiration from a video Fernando Lopez posted



The music scene of our people doesn’t see
a need to participate
in real life: it’s all a song; it’s all the music
It's all pretend
It's all a game
Bailando, cantando, y a la cama
But never facing life:
The genocide around us.

Pleasure, smoking weed, talking, not doing truth
sex and toys and talk and bullshit rules our people's lives
all day long
all night long
into their fake lives
into the grave
con dinero y sin dinero
into the nothingness
with music in the background
of their wasted lives

como la cancion:
wasted days and wasted nights
miedosos, payasos, mentirosos
Asi vivimos la vida
y en ignorancia
Ignorancia como si fuera algo bonito, algo chistoso

This is about our people

But it is way worse than white people wasting their lives,
it is worse for our people
since we are already slaves
already fools
already lost
and we are
less than the white man
in the whiteman's eyes
in our own eyes we are less
and we throw our lives into escaping more with music,
escaping responsibility,
escaping the honorable thing to do:
to struggle to be free,
for all of our people

The music scene is blind and broken
pretentious, escapist, y bola de mentirosos
The music scene is fake all around

Name one band or singer that is really true down
struggling for our people as Nican Tlaca,
for total liberation

Listen to the nowhere that our music leads us.
Phoney rappers, corridos, revolutionary bands,
all leading our people nowhere,
and sadly that is where our people have been taught to want to go: nowhere

Okay,
Listen to the music to calm you down
for a few minutes, maybe once a day,
but don’t live your life listening to music
all your waking day,
every free moment,
and doing nothing with your lives

Our Creator gave you the gift of EXISTENCE,
don’t waste it, don’t mistake masturbating in music for life,
life is a beautiful gift of one time,
DON’T WASTE IT.
