Bug Dreamz

im gonna be a player lil bug im gonna show them all how you survive as a white indian with authority and daddy issues i’m gonna be a rapper lil bug they want you to be a sacred thing, chaste and wise but i defy them with my thighs, i proclaim i will not be nunnified, princessified. i see myself in pink slides with a diamond anklet stepping on the white man’s asphalt to get down in a crowd of indians wearing beads, my earrings drip with beads and i see the world is beaded with particles I had to claw my way back to my culture out of caucasian confusion im gonna tell them all how you operate in capitalism you try your very best is what you do start a cooperative make your own sovereignty in moneychanging life i will ignore the slaughterhouses and the wars and attend my weekly psychedelic church gatherings and tend a garden which may inspire you to understand God and heaven, and there lil bug you can join me.
