[verse 1: curt kennedy]
once upon a time before england became new england
before the war on drugs and the government made us kingpins
poor white people in britain were causing problems
the dregs of society, “vagrants” are what they called them
couldn’t own land nor easily understand the european brand
so then what should we do to solve them?
questions at hand that richard haklykt would stand
in front of the queen of england, offering a new plan
this was 1548 and he would go in and state
that britain’s colonization should never be a debate
“we should send all the poor white ignorant to the wasteland!”
referring to america: “why should we not disgrace them?”
“we hate them, they’ll bring the british culture its downfall!”
“they have no cl-ss, so why should they stick around, y’all?”
the aristocrats would agree, so they loaded them on boats
and then promised them they’d be free

[sample: nancy isenberg, author of white trash: the 400-year untold history of cl-ss in america]
“well, i think one of the things we forget is that, for half of our history, we were an agrarian nation. so ‘white trash’ really comes out of notions of rural poverty, and it goes all the way back to british ideas, because–”

[verse 2: curt kennedy]
they get to america, colonization policies
traveled with them across the seas
they couldn’t purchase the land and couldn’t work with their hands
so now they’re worthless–could somebody preach the gospel, please?
instead, these white people again were dregs, a lot of the rich had said
they’re destined to be a dying breed, never getting ahead
but james had warned and said to keep warm and well fed
when you can help is where the problems be! act like christ bled!
but nope, they kept their distance, judging whites as the misfits
instead of seeing that they had exaggerated statistics
after the revolution, paraded upward mobility
but men with no land had no future, they had futility
so much for being white, if you ain’t rich
you just a black man with no stripes coming from whips
you the mudsills, white people hated by their own kind
lied to and left behind

[sample: bill o’reilly]

“um, now, you made a comment, and i’m not harping on this, but again, i’m just telling you what’s–i’m like the ghost of christmas present. i’m telling you what’s happening now. you said, “i don’t want to make black people’s lives better by giving them somebody else’s money” when you were talking about welfare. and the point you were trying to make, because i want to be fair to you tonight, is that, look, we’ve got to get away from this ent-tlement society. we’ve got to get people back to work and give them an incentive, rather than giving them a reason not to work. but you threw in ‘black people,’ when most of the people, as you know, on welfare are white people.”

[verse 3: curt kennedy]
america’s poor white trash was never allowed to make it
and hated so much, eugenics, they made ’em take it
sterilize them so they can no longer go procreate it
in the 1920s, the christian nation’s a matrix
it’s cl-ss over everything, all that poor white trash?
move ’em to appalachia, things will never get better
so their crime rates are high, graduation is low
domestic violences, check, drug overdoses in tow
i wanted you all to know these people are kept below
the radar on welfare much more than the average joe
the media doesn’t show you none of what it’s supposed to do
they make you think that only black people are ones that go through
why is this the case? conveniently, they’ve erased
the trailer park trash, while exposing the cl-ss is clay
that’s still fighting today and politicians will say
anything to get their vote, like “make america great”
anything to get their vote, like “make america great”

[sample: interviewer and j.d. vance, author of hillbilly elegy]
“…abandoning or unable to look after their children, that’s familiar to you, isn’t it? that’s your story.”

“yes, unfortunately, it’s very familiar to me. it’s what i write about in the book. and if you look at the data or if you just go and talk to some of the folks who live in eastern kentucky or southern ohio, like you did, you realize that those stories are awfully common–too common, i think.”

“i mean, that’s exactly right. we stopped people randomly in the street, and all of them said they knew somebody who’d been affected by drugs or had been brought up by grandparents. what has gone wrong in these communities?”

well, i think partially, you saw it when you visited eastern kentucky, is that the economy in this area has been really hard hit. these are areas that depended on coal mines, on steel mills, on a lot of other manufacturing industries that just don’t exist anymore, or at least don’t exist in quite the volume needed to support a local economy. so what’s happened is that as people have lost jobs and people have lost hope, they’ve really in some ways– [skip] –don’t exist anymore, or at least don’t exist in quite the volume needed to support a local economy. so what’s happened is that as people have lost jobs and people have lost hope, they’ve really, i think, in some ways turned over to other habits or other things to try to dull that pain. and that’s a big part of where this opioid crisis comes from. it’s not just people who like drugs or want to be addicted to drugs. it’s that they’re really trying to find something to do, something to dull that pain that comes from living in areas that are really struggling.”

[outro: curt kennedy]
“so if this is true, then why do they act like black people are the only ones that live like this? why are they only talking about black-on-black crime? how did we get here? look…”
