The revolution will not be SOCIALIZED
In tribute to Brother Gil Scott Herron

You will not be able to stay home brother,
You will not be able to login, post a pic or
Change your status.
You will not be able to lose yourself on the Kardashians
Or skip out for beer during the national anthem
‘Cause the revolution will not be socialized
The revolution will not be socialized
The revolution will not be brought to you on Twitter
In 280 characters
There will be no pictures of an Orange Bigfoot
Grabbing coochies and leading the charge by
Jeff Sessions, General Kelly or Steve Bannon
To drink red flavored Kool-Aid
Mixed with water from a Flint River
The revolution will not be bought to you by the
Weinstein Company and not star-molested ambitions
Toxic male privilege or Ren and Stimpy
The revolution will not give you good credit
The revolution will not cure your bunions
The revolution will not make you look lighter in the mirror,
Or make your bank account bigger
The Revolution will not be on social media, brother
There will be no pictures of you and LeBron James
Hitting a 3 pointer at the buzzer
Then sliding a 60-inch flat screen TV into a
Stolen ambulance on the dead run.
NBC could not predict the winner
On November 8th, 2016
Reporting from 92 precincts
Welcome to the great New World Order again
The revolution will not be socialized
There will be no pictures of Colin Kaepernick
Throwing a 90-yard touchdown to
win the super bowl in the NFL
There will be no movies of Marcus Garvey, Toussaint L’Overture,
Mary McLeod Bethune, Queen Inzinga or Samora
Machel
Honey Boo Boo, Duck Dynasty and the fucking Bachelor
Will no longer be so god damned relevant
Because Black people will be in the streets
Looking for a brighter day
The revolution will not be socialized
There will be no trending stories in your news feed
There will be no trending stories in your news feed
And no pictures of well meaning philanthropists
Throwing money away on guilt free trips to Puerto Rico
Wearing high heeled disaster pumps
And a let them eat cake type of smile
Tossing paper towels
The theme song will not be sung by
Miley Cyrus, Toby Keith, Kid Rock, Rachel Dolezol or a
Blue-eyed Jesus
The revolution will not be reposted and shared on
Facebook, Instagram, Reddit or Pinterest
The revolution will not go better with Cherry Coke
The revolution will not fight the germs caused by white supremacists
The revolution will not LYFT you into an UBER seat
The revolution will not be socialized
The revolution will not be socialized..
There will be no reruns brothers
The revolution
will be live!
