halaj pharaoh-jali lialu - mad at miles: removing the mute on truth lyrics
[intro]
pearl cleage
homage
[verse one]
can’t breathe on this earth
want to leave this earth cause i lost my worth
the night i was tossed head first down stainless
steel stairs the scars are still
there and that’s not love and that’s
not right i say to myself every time
but there’s a part of me that believes that dr
jekyll outweighs mr. hyde
who leaves me kind of blue
with the att-tude so what
and i know what i got to do but
to remove the mute is so tough
when day after day i’m shhh’ed
in a silent way
by a society that believes
to be seen i’d make false claims
[bridge]
only seen never heard
i can’t breathe on this earth
only seen never heard
they won’t believe my words
but i’m going speak my words
as i develop courage
if you want to hear my truth
you must remove your mute
[verse two]
i’ve remained silent
enduring gender-based violence
my freddie hubbard moleskine
is my sole friend for whom
i’ve opened the wounds on
my skin and the bruise on
my heart and i been hoping
in due time, i’d be fine
but the hands of time haven’t saved my life
from his hands at night
makeup over black eyes then we
makeup over his lies like
you know i love you right?
and i promise that was the last time
but a few days p-ss by
and then there’s a new last time
[interlude]
“black men who have experienced racism are already familiar with what oppression looks like and how it can poison every area of your life. the problem is, we have not figured out a way to use that racial knowledge to help them understand s-xism and their role in it.” – pearl cleage
[verse three]
what’s on the docket today?
more false claims which we
can wipe away with the time
tested victim blame
why would you wait to relive
your pain and you notified us
on the type of guy he was but what
role did you play what did you say
to provoke his rage matter fact
let’s subject change, subject change
what’s your age what’s your weight
what were you wearing on that
day, yeah, we are heartless grown
little men who laugh at her
pain we are heartless grown
little men, now let me mansplain
[bridge]
such is the state of the earth
now i give you my last verse
so, i hope you’ll speak your words but it’s
okay if you keep your words
from theodor adorno i learned
the condition of truth
so today i
remove my mute
[verse four]
