1920 (Gloves Off)

Push me to the floor
Wrap yourself in innocence
Who do you think they’ll believe more
The cruelty behind the smile
You got ‘em all in denial
No!
Gloves off
Gloves off
Don’t waste your time
I already heard that lie
Protecting your purity is American as genocide
1920 you decided to take a side
The cruelty behind the smile
Yet I’m the one on trial
No!
Gloves off
Gloves off
Don’t waste your time
I already heard that lie
Save your tears dear
That shit won’t work here
x2
No!

Krish

16 and awkward, walking home.
Hiding her body under
Frumpy clothes.
He creeps behind her
Says “Do you need a ride”.
She freezes up and slowly declines.
Out of the sky comes Krish
Black Grrrl Defender
She steps up to him and says.
When you come for her
You come for me
x4
2:30 Monday stuck in class.
Listening to other girls talk trash
“Wish you could be us”, they hissed.
Claiming her womanhood didn’t exist
Kicking down the door comes Krish
Black Grrrl Defender
She steps up to them and says.
When you come for her
You come for me
x4
She’ll knock you down
Gonna get kicked around
x2
Krish the Black Grrrl Defender
x4
Think twice before you come for us
Think twice before you fuck with us
x2
Krish the Black Grrrl Defender
x4

When we talk about women
It’s White
When we talk about black
It’s Men
Where do I come in?
Disrespected, unprotected everyday
Erasing my existence coz it’s in the way
Fuck it’s been a long day.
But they’ll tell me I’m strong
So they can pile it on
Ya, they’ll call me queen
So I’ll ignore everything
Hey grrrl don’t cry
Hey grrrl don’t scream
Just do your part for the community
Suffocating invisibility
Where my riots
Them streets so quiet
x2
So I’m calling grrrls to the front
To get what they want
Rejecting the mule
Free myself from the pull
Hey grrrl go’on cry
Hey grrrl go’on scream
Just know that now it’s up to you and me
And it will crumble
Till you do right by us
Poetic Justice

(verse)
How much more can you take?
When you can’t live off what you make
Two parties just the same
Giving you someone else to blame
Keep praising the New Deal
Yet the hunger you feel is real
How much more can you take?
When you’re crushing under the weight
(chorus)
Presenting a Class Kombat
Class Kombat

Class Kombat

(verse)
Landlords collecting big
Pushing folks out in the skids
A generation drowns in debt
While the ruling class revels in theft
I said, how much more will you take (x3)
Before it’s too late
(chorus)
For the Class Kombat
Class Kombat
Class Kombat
Commence
Class Kombat
x2
