Denying the Destiny of Destitution Dealt - Hip-Hop Lyrics re: Haiti and the Dominant Media False Narrative

————

The media's slander is on my mind.

Bullshit if you think its fine.

Bull shit in their streets, that's life,

but no shit from the meek you’ll find

because they're pursuing a purpose while you're perceiving them worthless

but your perception is worthless if you don't see you're blind

to their shining ultraviolent admist the ultimate violence,

ultimatums in private, U.S.-backed tyrants.

You is wack if silence to you mean nobody’s crying,

toujou* somebody’s dying

ou fou si pa gade nou* trying

Haiti -- the world’s winner, all black revolt from

slavery; the world’s bitter, ball black results

it’s crazy, what world history teachers leave out

it aches me; how in the world do you tap out

so easily?

You just convene when justice is convenient,

justify conflict with Justinian confidence,

judging communities not judiciously conversant,

that’s juvenile competence;

Do you deny my conductance?

I got a lot to say I postulate conversation

some day when you do not convolute it,

this is contra-muted concept music,

conduce to it: truth.

*"Toujou" means "Always" in Haitian Creole

**"Ou fou si pa gade nou" means "You are crazy if you don't see us" in Haitian Creole
