Anti (Remix)

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Rakaa Iriscience] The intersection of propaganda and hatred Mental health and race of anger and frustration So-called leaders and speeches targeting Asians Then confirmation bias, some debating science It's a complicated virus, side effects like Anti-Asian-American And Pacific Islander violence, communities are conquered, divided Designed by the tyrants, and some try to justify silence Cowards attacking elderly innocent, bystanders filming it Somе close the doors or indifferеnt This is from the son of a Korean immigrant Unity builds unity, ignorance breeds ignorance [Verse 2: Shing02] Pass the baton, the mic, the megaphone, it's on Tell the xenophobes time to atone Once upon a top of a hill, stood a White House Where the master was a mason with a wide mouth We the people, meant whoever legal Whatever to protect 'em, the method was lethal Fast forward, ain't a damn thing changed The race is the scapegoat, class is the same If you wanna take notes then I'm all about it but TBH, do we really gotta talk about it? And let the history of activism Rewound by dicks with their minds in prison Yellow peril cause fever to believer dem' I got the message so I might as well deliver then Be the judge, if you wanna be judged B Still step to me, you don't know me, homie [Chorus] Anti, slant eye, guess who's the bad guy? I ain't playin', I'm sayin' Anti, slant eye, guess who's the bad guy? I ain't playin', I'm sayin' I'm in a red circle Red line going diagonal Starting over my left shoulder Going over my right ankle Anti, slant eye, guess who's the bad guy? I ain't playin', I'm sayin' [Verse 3: Lyrics Born] Things exactly the same for AZNs Still getting stabbed up, beat on the same streets Even though we organized, rallied, and brang heat Even though we finally made our issues go mainstream While a new psycho swoops on, a dude with his newborn We gettin' clipped like a coupons, yet the news cycle moved on I shouldn't have to pay to hire a publicist To get folks to notice my folks taking punishment To all people of color, I'm here, let's fellowship More love and understanding We share the same nemesis We are too many, too beautiful, too intelligent We need to ask ourselves When we fight, who benefits [Verse 4: Bohan Phoenix] Things just ain't the same no more We don't gotta play their games no more We don't have to hide our pain no more Shout out to the ones that have came before That laid it down, now the rules changed Its a cultural revolution we the new reign Wanna hold us down but we found a new flame I got news mane, I'm the one you should worry about I used to think if you hate me you my enemy So I hate you too, reciprocate that energy But all that hating back and forth really draining me I had to trust in love had to find my inner peace So when you need you know who to call And if I'm overseas I be there tomorrow 听我说,如果有坏那么就有爱 希望有一天大家都明白 [Chorus] Anti, slant eye, guess who's the bad guy? I ain't playin', I'm sayin' Anti, slant eye, guess who's the bad guy? I ain't playin', I'm sayin' I'm in a red circle Red line going diagonal Starting over my left shoulder Going over my right ankle Anti, slant eye, guess who's the bad guy? I ain't playin', I'm sayin'
