Yakubian Antics
Yakubian Antics Unveiled: Confronting Systemic Ills
Lyrics
Why you go out of your way to burn the world down?
Questioning the motivation behind destructive actions taken deliberately.
Why would you lie to my face after I call you out?
Expressing disbelief at someone's dishonesty despite being confronted.
Golfing your trash off a cliff, intentional ignorance, I educate only once, no second chances to give
Metaphorical reference to discarding ignorance, offering education once but not repeating it.
My fight or flight is engaged, you know I want the smoke
Being ready for confrontation or conflict.
Someone would call the police, I'd get Eric Gardner choked
Fear of facing severe consequences for standing against injustice.
Tired being furious, intentional ignorance, I educate only once, no second chances give
Reiteration of frustration with intentional ignorance and the refusal to offer second chances after educating.
I don’t know why you think that confidence you have is really earned
Doubting the legitimacy of someone's confidence or self-assuredness.
I know I’m not the one who’ll let you go with what you don’t deserve
Refusal to allow someone to benefit from something they don't rightfully deserve.
I think your system’s getting sick, It’s all yakubian antics
Observation that a particular system is exhibiting behaviors reminiscent of oppressive actions.
I think your system’s getting sick, I’ll call you out
Intent to challenge and confront the problematic system or behavior.
I’m calling out all the antics of a yakubian
Directly addressing and denouncing the negative behaviors associated with a specific group or ideology.
People around us are silent, rather not make a scene
Observing bystander silence and avoidance of addressing issues to avoid conflict.
Letting injustices happen while they play make believe
Highlighting the acceptance of injustice by individuals who prefer denial or escapism.
Your silence is killing us, intentional ignorance, I educate only once, no second chances to give
Emphasizing the impact of silence as complicity in perpetuating ignorance despite offering education once.
Why when you manifest destiny something has to die?
Questioning the necessity of destruction or harm in the pursuit of a particular ideology or ambition.
You better hope I don’t catch you when I’m decolonized
Warning against confrontation when the speaker has liberated themselves from oppressive ideologies.
I’m holding rage in my chest, no patience for ignorance, I educate only once, no second chances to give
Expressing contained anger due to a lack of tolerance for ignorance, refusing second chances after educating.
I don’t know why you think that confidence you have is really earned
Reiteration of doubt regarding the legitimacy of someone's confidence.
I know I’m not the one who’ll let you go with what you don’t deserve
Refusal to allow undeserved privileges or benefits to someone.
I think your system’s getting sick, It’s all yakubian antics
Repetition emphasizing the perception that a system is exhibiting sick or oppressive behaviors.
I think your system’s getting sick, It’s all yakubian antics
-I think your system’s getting sick, It’s all yakubian antics
-I think your system’s getting sick, I’ll call you out
-I’m calling out all the antics of a yakubian
-I think your system’s getting sick, It’s all yakubian antics
-I think your system’s getting sick, It’s all yakubian antics
