lirik lagu the furious sjw - #allaboardtheallyship
i showed up at the rally for #blacklivesmatter
i wanted to be an ally so i could join them where they gather
and i joined in very gladly with their chants, their cries, their laughter
i asked them how i could be of help, and this is how they answered
they said when white people are allies they’re really just trying to hijack
this movement that was made by and for those who identify as black
and i told them “no! that’s not me. i know where my place is in the pack.”
so i proudly joined their rally, and i took my place… at the back
trailing at the end, you know i almost fit right in
and i was sure to take some selfies, so i could remember where i’d been
but i didn’t chant too loudly, and i reflected on my skin
which represents hegemony, complicity, and sin
when the rally ended, i doc-mented my experience
and i posted it to facebook, twitter, instagram, and pinterest
i wanted white people to know that we really can make a difference
but if we take up too much sp-ce, it’s the product of our ignorance
i explained that the taking up of sp-ce is allyship’s main flaw
and that black bodies can only thrive after white people withdraw
i explained that it isn’t our right to appropriate their cause
and the response that i got online was like a digital applause
i saw so many likes on facebook, that i never found the end
and my followers on instagram were multiplied by ten
my tweet became retweeted, and the retweets were retw-t again
and my pinterest pin was pinned upon the boards of all my friends
my face felt flushed; i swelled with pride; i’d finally found the light. i’d proudly marched away from sight, and with my mouth shut tight
i’d worn my shame with pride, and i now my pride was shining bright
i didn’t appropriate their cause, and that’s how i joined their fight
