      The present curriculum / I put my fist in 'em / Eurocentric every last one of 'em / See right through the red, white, and blue disguise / With lecture I puncture the structure of lies / Installed in our minds and attempting to hold us back / We've got to take it back / Holes in our spirit causin' tears and fears / One-sided stories for years and years and years
