Change Ur Mind
Soooo we were all there for 2020, right? We all seen, heard, know what happened, right? So why did so many people try to deny it? The global pandemic, systemic racist violent oppression, public blatant misogyny/homophobia/transphobia, widening income inequality gap, decreasing accessibility of healthcare & housing, rapid spread of fascism, and SO many other existing issues laid bare and exacerbated by the pandemic. Like bruh… open yall fucking eyes.
BUUUUUT since hella people want to play their damn games / choose to willingly get played by the system they believe in so much either because they are willingly ignorant, or they benefit from the existing systems of oppression - fuck ‘em!
It’s up to each of us to educate ourselves, and it’s great to help each other out as much as we can. Empathy, compassion, kindness, love & understanding is what brings communities together and helps us all grow. That said, some (many) people don’t want help, don’t want to open up and see from a different perspective, don’t want to change. And it’s important to recognize that. Sometimes you just have to choose your battles.
We love our diverse homies, communities, spaces and everything we all do and accomplish together. And we’re gonna live our best lives no matter what, fam. Living your best life does NOT require oppression and hate of other people, yet as we’ve seen many would rather cling to supposed “comfort,” privilege, or simply status quo at the cost of their neighbors livelihoods - and sometimes their very lives. We’ve definitely argued with, unfriended, blocked, and cut off more people set & proud in their toxic ways than ever this past year. And this song goes out to all of them. Meanwhile we staying hydrated, moisturized, exfoliated, recreated, grounded, fleeked.
I can’t change your mind, I’ma just get mine. Watch from the sidelines.
SIT DOWN, SHUT UP WHILE WE LIVE OUR LIVES!
