lirik lagu tongogara:battlekat - americanization
[intro]
so i was out tryin’ to get some political affiliation for bab right!?
so as i was talking to this guy from the veteran party, he cuts in and he’s like:
“eh… battlekat! the connotation of the situation is that;
your intonation of words exposes you as a victim of americanization!”
i stood there i was like; what?!
[verse]
don’t criticize me about being colonized in the mind
we’re no longer briticised we’re americanized
i just took the malcom x side!
he’s synonymous to biko in sa;
you’ll catch the rhyme on the next line
who’ the j-z of here anyway?
…that’s right?! don’t even ask who beyoncé!
questions that pop up on social media everyday…
answers that come up are often common in many ways
they say you made it when you make it in the usa
ask a mexican he’ tell you same thing esé
out here in sa tryin’ to be like them
fed with their sh-t everyday; how we be ourselves?!
american dream’s a nightmare to some blacks who die unexpectedly
k!lled by white cops over there, knowing their minds are deadly
my “higher learning” began back in 95
mich-lle pfeiffer acting trying to teach “dangerous minds”
but got clear picture directed by john singleton
the act of 93; a witness of “poetic justice”
never been a fan of shakespeare’s romeo and juliet
but 2pac and janet?! good god! imagine that?!
didn’t even a make song after that?! what a tragedy?!
aside from that even comedy like “martin” made me
my theology i got from martin scorsese
with willem defoe’s devilish looking face cast as christ
in “the last temptation” you’d swear jesus was white
revelation said the second beast gave the image life
the first gave nations this language i use to write
roman empire is the dragon if bible study’s right…
that’s when the voice of deception said; “stick to fiery tales…”
…there’s no money for such content, you planning to fail!”
i paused a bit and asked him “so who’s the connect man?!
…the bureaucrat that can connect me where my money’s at?!”
pimping the side that win so we can quickly get paid
the card south african blacks play these days
white players pull a black king manoeuvre to castle a new plan
parliament’s still the queen’s, all directions; truth no chess!
my dad and grand pa showed me the way it’s really played
the reason i got my real name in the first place
this political gangster sh-t been run by americans
the only nation in history to use a weapon like that
not iraq, not iran, black… i’m talking j-pan
and ironically they’re the ones who decide who can have them
up top is england; the foundation’s the vatican
the reason this mafia sh-t goes deep with italians!
greater commodity than gold; is owning people’s consciousness
hence, mentally they raise south african americans
influence minds you control what occupies the land
at very low costs, we put diamonds in their hands
selling them back at a high price; we just buy the trending fashion
the power of hollywood; lights, camera, action
feeding our eyes that sh-t, before we know it’s a wrap
the next season they see us; that’s exactly how we act…
when you see a “6” you know what time it is; straight up and down black
rdp’s are what we get just to mention the projects
since apartheid four rooms and i’m not talking houses
i’m talking big police trucks they packed black crowds in
this age is black on black; cops against their own
unlike the states in sa is marikana alone
protecting interests of foreigner owners who stole the land
imagine?! a black government out of control like that?!
sh-t… give the people free education!
[outro]
beats against the beast act.ii
a future past in the presenst
real sh-t! no gimmicks! no hooks!
