(Verse 1) Poets, politricks and the propaganda (3x) Notice all the sick modus operandi Bogus power trips written memorandums Totally opposite I can't understand 'em They think in only black and white like a giant panda provoking abolishing trashing all the land up We can't sink into the abyss of hate and all this slander Woke as we calling it while they gerrymander A smoke and alcoholic extravaganza On TV watching it as they just lie on camera Artificial intelligence with facial scanners with most of these people having delusions of grandeur (Hook) Poets, politricks and their propaganda They don't want us to live in peace I won't be controlled by the beast Poets, politricks and their propaganda Why can't all good people live free must maintain my right to be me Poets, politricks and their propaganda hey They don't want us to live in peace I won't be controlled by the beast Poets, politricks and their propaganda yo Why can't all good people live free must maintain my right to be me (Verse 2) Poets, politricks and their propaganda Voters see through all of it they’re awful planners Low key we have unity it's time to stand up Flowing we gotta spit it nonstop with grammar The civics in society are just log jammers it slowly creeps inside of me I start to ramble Then parakeet their echo chamber psycho-babble no A poet like Langston Hughes and Alan Ginsberg Maya Angelou and Jack Kerouac word benders Mutabaruka, Saul Williams in stanza Ojenke and Kamau Daaaood them real don daddas They stimulate my mind medulla oblongata And innovate through time get closer to Ananda But the corporate pollution hurts our mother Gaia Government solution burn a hotter fire like Fela Kuti said no enemy for water (Hook) Poets, politricks and their propaganda They don't want us to live in peace I won't be controlled by the beast Poets, politricks and their propaganda Why can't all good people live free must maintain my right to be me Poets, politricks and their propaganda hey They don't want us to live in peace I won't be controlled by the beast Poets, politricks and their propaganda yo Why can't all good people live free must maintain my right to be me credits

about

As the world found itself locked down because of COVID-19, Freshman Woes and Myka 9 released their first collaboration, "Solitude." Given what was going on in the world then, the timing and message of that song couldn't have been more poignant. It eventually landed on Freshman Woes' debut album, THANK YOU RAP GODS, and remains a snapshot of our lives during the pandemic. Now, they’ve once again teamed up to document the state of the day. Their new single, "Poets, Politricks & Propaganda" examines the political climate of the 2020’s and challenges artists to consider the roles they play in the discourse.

For the first time, "Poets, Politricks & Propaganda" is available for purchase on physical formats - vinyl & cassette. Both contain an exclusive bonus song "The Language of Sound” that will only be offered here.
