when marrill garbus scream-shouted “there is a freedom in violence that i don’t understand and like i’ve never felt before” i felt that

[terminallytwee]

if home is where the heart is then baby my home is inside of you

[trueouchys]

Would you call me naïve and an idealist if I told you I am disheartened that in this day and age, I do not have more male, black friends? I can not take it—I'm so hip, I'm hip like a yuppie is hip: confident and yipping at the heels of my yuppie forefathers. I tried to write a song in your style! To try and steal the lessons of the '80's is to steal the foam off the rabies. Can you see the fear in the back of my throat? Once you've judged me yourself, let my teeth take a vote! I'M SO HIP!

Merrill Garbus, Killa - Tune-Yards (WHOKILL)

So fucking obsessed with this song.

Bizness by tUnE-yArDs from W H O K I L L (2011)

If I represent the one that did this to you Then can away the part that represents the thing that scarred you I say, get up, stand up, get up, stand up, get on it Yes sir, I am no longer who you thought this one would be We end up around the mountain that I climb to lose you

I said, I said give me the business that business could work through I say, ask me but all my wisdom departed Tell me but all my wisdom departed but Help please at least answer me this Answer me, answer me

What's the business, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

From a distance, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

I'm a victim, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

I'm addicted, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

If you just press your fingers down under my skin (Go on and do it, go on and do it) Lift up, dig up, lift up, dig up and bleed for me, and bleed for me I say, I'll bleed if you ask me That's when, that's when, he said no

What's the business, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

From a distance, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

I'm a victim, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

I'm addicted, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

I'm addicted, yeah From a distance, yeah I'm a victim, yeah What's the business, yeah

I'm addicted, yeah (Don't take my life away, don't take my life away) What's the business, yeah

I'm addicted, yeah From a distance, yeah I'm a victim, yeah What's the business, yeah Don't take my life away, don't take my life away

Gangsta by tUnE-yArDs from W H O K I L L (2011)

What's a boy to do if he'll never be a gangsta? Anger in his heart, but he'll never be a gangsta If you move into his neighborhood, he'll never make a sound, ooh!

What's a boy to do if he'll never be a rasta? Singing from his heart, but he'll never be a rasta If you move into his neighborhood, he'll never make a sound If you move into his neighborhood...

Bang-bang, oi! Never move to my hood, cause danger is crawlin' out the way

What's a girl to do if she'll never be a rasta? Singing from her heart, but she'll never be a rasta? If you move into her neighborhood, she'll never make a sound

Bang-bang, oi! Never move to my hood, cause danger is crawlin' out the way

You gonna put that on tape for posterity? Rewind the tape!

Life in the city... life in the city.. ("...this is happening?") Makes more sense when Jesus calls me

Bang-bang, oi! Never move to my hood, cause danger is crawlin' out the way

tUnE-yArDs - WHOKILL / So because I didn't listen to this last night before bed (after listening to their latest release), of course I woke up with "My Country" in my head.
