Take Aim Away from Them (feat. Dhiyanah Hassan)

Brown girl in brown family, tell me What does it feel like, being treated like currency? Kept, stored, be safe Your only danger is at home Form of flesh and blood, blood on skin Cry to your ancestors They can only tell you What flammable liquids taste like And how human bodies burn in unison with grief Only too brief to be heard Anywhere else in the world Brown skin against vomit background Can you tell? your screams Lose their extremes, you are battling A whole history made reality Over and over again These Inferno walls is where you sleep Losing sleep to the night To nightmares that feed at your everything To nightmares that can't go anywhere else To nightmares that can't go anywhere else To nightmares that can't go anywhere else Brown girl in brown family In target practice You repeat the same gestures Take aim away from them The more you hide yourself The less they hit you Brown girl in brown family To nightmares that can't go anywhere else Take aim away from them
