Then drum and bass play during these words:
but this song’s not about some romantic account of history,
it’s not about martyrs or mythos or heroes or burnings in effigy.
it’s about a native kid flipping her wig to try to keep some self-respect intact.
it’s about an oka who raised her fist in resistance, and a will to fight back!

verse 1 words:
the girls at work, they still deny their racism. they claim tolerance for
all, but it seems the degree of only
racial slurs as their gauge defines tolerance as hate. and there’s
27-million girls at work here. imagine fighting that 500 years.
verse 2 words:
And golly gee! how valiant! how the white oppressor makes allowance for the
calculated gestures of
insurgence tightly tethered to their purses. oka had this orchestra
aborted. oka f***ed the rules to choose a future self-determined. i
support *it.

End words:
and the best thing i think i ever said, was ‘if a Kevin Costner cavalry is
your means to their ends, then the struggle is dead.’ why do we pretend
approval is upon what they depend?
