Notes from Class Vol. 4

One thousand common era
Leif Ericson came to the new world
fornicated & fell in love with a native girl
your life pretty short and miserable

1492, Rise of the Renaissance
church, fear, and ignorance
can't read & write
tell you what's wrong and right
this book right here I can tell
if you don't submiss you're going to hell
i'm not impress
Invention of the printing Press
I have a need to read, expand beyond the rocks
wanna gotta think outside the box

Portuguese, Prince Henry, school of navigation
Start the investigation
Sailing down the coast of Africa
comin' at ya Christopher Columbus
born in 1451
He never was the one
to set foot on American soil
couldn't get enough funding from a royal

The Columbian Exchange, their ideologies having to rearrange
Leave their old identity behind
feelings of superiority
fuck your native ass, you're the minority
culture shock, you poor savage
I'm Winnie Cooper, you're Fred Savage
I'm the meat in the stew
You're the cabbage

bringin' in sour grapes
Listen to me you damn dirty apes
take these STD'S and I'll take your maize, you amazed?

Spanish port cities, starin' at local titties
trying to have a battle of the witties
you got a big mouth, these bitches wanna head south
& west, get the treasures that they got, they're the best

Amerigo Vespucci, comparin' the Native Land to your coochie
One step away from heaven, livin with your brethren
Without Government & a King
 their immune system can't resist em'
populations & disease don't put them at ease
can't match the numbers and technology
organization, sophistication, and ideology

The spanish are comin to create their story
comin' to achieve gold, god, and glory
wealth and catholicism
spanish machism
oh...
Establishment of their caste system
oh!


Did you steal grain? What did you Gain?
Put your family in a shed and burn them

Juan De Onate,
he's bein' naughtay
throwin' out some threats, no regrets
Hernando Cortes is pretty fuckin greedy
That's what I'm told
He suffers from a disease
the only cure in which is gold

Do you wanna up the ante'
or will you fold?

Steppin' up to the table is Bartolome De Las Casas
Don't look him in the eyes or he'll put you on your assa's
The other Spaniards are the Uncle from the Lion King
Well, he's the Mufasa

Spanish Invasion,
Using the power of persuasion
Into the late 1500's, spawning universities
Still starin' at their titties
