You that peddle flesh as freight!
Filleted, sliced, and stuffed with hate!
Will corpses rise and live again?
Bewitched by bigotry and "amen"?
Are wounds healed and bones unbroken,
by skin that's white or polished token?
Are children saved from evil here,
by invoking evil there?
-shanked off the rotisserie spear
to be otherwise laid bare?
You can't invoke your children's blood,
to justify your acts of hate.
You can't use their ashes to justify,
your white supremacist state.
You are the violent hand that cuts,
the whips that beat, the clubs that break.
You can't invoke your violence here,
and say it was for your children's sake.
You drove the wheel that brought us here.
You fanned the flames that stoke a war.
What battle could you possibly wage,
to raise such "peace" that you fight for?
to justify your acts of hate.
You can't use their ashes to justify,
your white supremacist state.
You are the violent hand that cuts,
the whips that beat, the clubs that break.
You can't invoke your violence here,
and say it was for your children's sake.
You drove the wheel that brought us here.
You fanned the flames that stoke a war.
What battle could you possibly wage,
to raise such "peace" that you fight for?
