about

a song about "cultural appropriation". how dark does a hispanic person's skin have to be to be not "white"?

lyrics

let’s talk about appropriation
YATA if you’re trying to save someone
who you trying to save

we live in a global world
for better and worse
and what possible harm could be done
by emulating someone different than me
the act shows empathy
imitation is after all the highest form of flattery
the only person claiming things are being stolen
is the one who projects culture onto another
you be the judge of what’s appropriate
ha!
if you try to save someone
especially by condemning someone else who you don’t even know
that makes you the racist times two in one go
in your face take the plank from your own eye before you throw the stone
or something like that
fever, fever
take me to your leader
it’s a global clusterfuck
no one comes out alive or alone
everyone’s a clone
instead of being an asshole or blowing a gasket
believe in the fever

or leave me alone with the glorious cleavage
robot witch diva

believe in the fever or
delete yourself

leave me alone with the glorious cleavage
leave me alone with the glorious cleavage
leave me alone with the glorious cleavage
who you tryin to save
