LIBERATION THEOLOGY

*Published by SFSU's yearly Raza Studies literary journal, "Cipactli"


I’ll create a radical faction and
Go up to the Vatican
Melt all their gold and silver
Bring it back again
So my peoples could live rich and
Mad extravagant
Don’t give a fuck if you
Come from a long line of lavish kings
I’m not havin’ it
Pocket check homey!
You wanna see some real savages?
Rob ostentatious cathedrals and Parishes
You’ve lost all abilities to translate
Your sacred bible passages - tremble
I’ve come to wake these sleepy pacifists
See, my temples also had symbols
Mad rubies, emeralds
And magic shit
Best believe I’m a bitter beaner
All the better,
Makes me that much more passionate
Imagine it, melt down metals
Every last crucifix
Who’s really blasphemous?
Can it be we can actually
Re-write history?
Who’s down to practice it?
Theological sorcery
How you gone say we were saved
When you did that shit forcefully
Through torturing
Made a killing off our dying
Say I’m lying
Global crime ring
That stretches centuries
And even though this is just a poem
Know you’re down fall is coming,
Because corrupt power fails eventually.
