evan: the artist - columbus day كلمات الأغنية
[intro]
geez. so much controversy, so many opinions, just nonsense. like, should i even write about this?
then again, it’s got a purp
worth a try. (so many, so many, so many, so many, so many, so many, so many, so many!)
[verse 1]
so many thoughts man, i can’t even type fast
they all say i wanna put columbus on blast
he k!lled the indians
excuse me, the nat. am’s
the ogs that were here before tomatoes and yams
let me exchange a few facts for ya’
another nod that white supremacy is bad for ya’
yeah, but my people say it’s bad for ya’
even though he sorta paved the way for passports
and pretty much everything else you see
a drive_by for my thoughts, they be chopping me
are you willing to make a k!lling over one word?
’cause if you do, i think you’re just as bad as they were (got eem!)
wait. imma take a step back
you ain’t gotta agree with me, it’s as simple as that
if you wanna form a stance on the words i say
then listen close; i’m bout to strip away the wordplay
[chorus]
change how columbus day is taught in the clasroom?
it’s like the world has put the day up in a glass room
rethink how they teach about columbus?
well, my opinion comes directly from the humblest:
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment
just give the facts and let the students decide it
[verse 2]
yeah. i wrote this on columbus day
the same day that they compound them fair days
and bear days, take a breath of fresh air days
they got the gall to make this day a waiver day
dang. they cracking down on my life now
how long have they been doing me wrong now?
2 or 3 years, now this new schedule
that goes back to staar because it’s educational
no! all schools should be educational
that is what they’re made for, not for making life a bore
and we the people… no, i take that back, “we the seniors!”
decree that we deserve a better plan if you dig deeper
we’ve been working since calculators were nothing but beepers
and we never said that we would be your sleepers
we’re the ap testers, we’re the overachievers
and in just a few months, we will all be seen as the leavers
i’m saying we’re are the better ones, we are the conquerors
so if you don’t mind, switch it back ‘fore i go bonker_ers!
[announcer voice] the conscious rap master is on sabbatical
he’s back
man, i’m starting to sound like columbus
taking over other people’s stuff like i own it
see what i mean about taking figurative pants?
give em the facts, so they can take up on their own stance
[chorus]
change how columbus day is taught in the clasroom?
it’s like the world has put the day up in a glass room
rethink how they teach about columbus?
well, my opinion comes directly from the humblest:
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. just give the facts and let the students decide it
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. just give the facts and let the students decide it (say it with me, now)
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. just give the facts and let the students decide it
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. (yeah. yeah, yeah, yeah)
just give the facts and let the students decide it (yuh!)
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. (yeah. you tell ’em, kids)
just give the facts and let the students decide it (these are independent thinkers!)
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. (remember that)
just give the facts and let the students decide it (i’m just saying, man)
[outro]
okay
imma say this one more time for the people in the back, and for anyone who hasn’t gotten what i’m trying to say yet, about this columbus day thing
you ready, kids? let’s go (students, three more times…)
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. just give the facts and let the students decide it
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. just give the facts and let the students decide it
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. just give the facts and let the students decide it (thank you, kids. now just, now just me!)
glorify you not, but don’t switch the alignment. just give the facts and let the students decide it
done
(drops mic as audience applauds)
