Kripping The Kirriculum From The Roots

All this talk, pedagogies and books
Using rhymes and hooks
Can’t grow if you don’t get to the roots
Hip-Hop are the leaves of this tree

Teachers want to see pride
They might have to feel uncomfortable at times
Have to deal with their own racism & ableism
Because we know that most teachers are White

All this talk pedagogies and books
Using rhymes and hooks
Can’t grow if you don’t get to the roots
Hip-Hop are the leaves of this tree

Way before the birth of an industry
When the circus were not animals but humans
Behind bars and in cages
Don’t try to control the student’s rage

Let them feel their ancestors anger
That lead to a lot of creative answers
How they made a career
The moans of the Blues let them hear

Talk about Black respectability politics
That pushed out Black disabled men
From the church to the streets, it’s no trick
This is only the beginning and there’s no end

You can’t go pass Jazz
Way before Bluegrass
Al Hibbler marching with MLK Jr
Protest music in another era

Young, old don’t care about your age
Everybody was hip in the Jazz age
People thought Rahsaan Roland Kirk was a freak
So he rap it in Freaks For The Festival

This poem is for my peoples
No textbooks field trip to a freakshow
This is the the original Crip walk so let’s go
Tookie told me the truth

I can’t & don’t stand for the pledge of allegiance
Give me Colin Kaepernick
And F coons like Jay Z
Can’t make it to last letter in the alphabet, put me to sleep zzzz

Let’s get back to the subject
Krippling The Kirriculum
Evicting all White women
From special education

This is my creation
Kripping PE Fight the Power
To Fight Black Ableism
Got read of the White gaze
But Black people why r you still in a haze

What Black disabled man can’t be the teacher
All of you are internalize haters
We don’t need the White man
He played the old game, divide and conquer

Got us hypnotize
It’s not a surprise
When the pain becomes a 9 to 5
Even after Covid back to the old times

No not trump’s old time
While Apple kicks us into virtual future
Mother Nature was healing during Covid
No need for college campus everything is on zoom

Welcome to Kripdome
Once again
Kripping PE’s Welcome to the Terrordome
Krip-Hop is not your friend

Give out grades
And you all flunk
You just got punk
Still in a haze it’s called Krip-Hop funk

From the roots
Stumping with our steal braces
In our steel toe boots
Mace in your face

Can’t truss it
Watch your step
King Kunta with one foot
Got a bone to pick

Krip-Hop class
Taught by Mr. Glass
Looking sharp
While he kills your ass

Leroy, why you went dark
I learn by swimming with sharks
You, put me off of Norah’s arch
It’s what you did to me from the start

By The Black Kripple
