00:00Welcome to the Planet Afropunk Family Reunion.
00:09This is Manga K, and this is your free space to be.
00:30Will I be next? Will you pull that trigger straight through my chest?
00:40I'm yelling, I'm tired. How many times do I have to cry?
00:45How many of my people have to die?
00:50I've been stressed out, pressed out. Do you even hear me?
00:54I've been stressed out, fleshed out. Do you even hear me?
00:58I've been stressed out, fleshed out. Do you really hear me?
01:03I've been stressed out, gotta let it out.
01:07Tell me I'm a lovable and huggable like your next hot object.
01:16Tell me I'm a lovable and huggable like your next hot object.
01:31Do I look incredible, edible? Is this really my topic?
01:35I don't want to feel this way. I don't want to eat from your plate.
01:39I don't need a seat at your table. Don't worry, I have my own label.
01:44For the black stars, we are rock stars. Don't need your approval, cause we got it all.
01:49Don't need y'all, cause we work hard. Get hate on us, cause we the vanguard.
01:53We are rock stars.
02:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:11One chance is all I need
02:36To show you I'm the man you seek
02:39Hidden desires, I am the fire to spark you up
02:45How we will fly or how we die is up to us
02:50Maybe I'm lost but I always find you
02:56Maybe I'm going insane, insane
03:01Maybe I'll always be a fool but you're a fool's gold
03:08A fool's gold
03:12One dance I'll hold you close
03:38Jealous of all he knows
03:44Shredding on ice, never deciding who is right
03:48Holding up hope that you won't let go, I hope I'm right
03:54Maybe I'm lost but I always find you
03:59Maybe I'm going insane, insane
04:04Maybe I'll always be a fool but you're a fool's gold
04:11A fool's gold
04:15You're a fool's gold
04:19You're a fool's gold
04:22You're a fool's gold
04:25Stay with me
04:30Lay with me
04:33This is your world
04:37Bury your soul
04:41Let me know
04:44If you're looking for yourself
04:46I'm looking for a fool's gold
05:01I'm looking for a fool's gold
05:03I'm looking for a fool's gold
05:06I'm looking for a fool's gold
05:08I'm looking for a fool's gold
05:10I'm looking for the fool's gold
05:12you know I'm looking for
05:27oh
05:42You can pull me apart
05:50You can bring on the dark
05:54Face much worse in my heart
05:57Dreaded days, they won't end
06:02He rode in silence and went
06:05Never was seen again
06:08Is there success in my name
06:13Or is my fate laid in pain
06:16Who do I speak to
06:18Are we doomed to be slaves
06:25To a screen that says stay
06:28I'll make you feel okay
06:31Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
07:01eyes. Foolish of me to reside in places that I couldn't try. I'm a lot, don't be slow, catch up,
07:14we move on, we ride along. What a waste of my time. What a waste of your life. What a waste of
07:29short nights. What a waste of my time. What a waste of your life. What a waste of short
07:42nights. I'm not gonna lie, I don't feel hypnotized by your outsides. Pick me up right, let me
07:51in tight. Hold on, the switch, connect me back on, give me feedback. Is this how you turn
07:57on? Felt rejected, no records, see me so. Left a story untold, steps back I didn't know.
08:03Consumed by all the politics, you're politicking, really don't mean shh. Seems like you're really
08:11just broken. I don't understand why you never just opened. Your mind, your heart picked me
08:17right up apart, then eat my insides like it's dinner time. Tell me, do I taste divine? Did
08:22I give you all the vitamins? Hope I gave you some enlightenment. I know you're really excited,
08:28man. Eat it up like you want a man. Yeah.
08:32Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da.
08:35Da-da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da.
08:42Da-da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da.
08:48Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da.
08:57It seems so simple
09:26Maybe even spiritual
09:29But in my head it's something serious
09:32I'm almost deliriously consumed
09:40By all the pressures here
09:44And I hope you understand
09:51That I am not the man to give you what you need
09:58And I don't like myself at all
10:04Sometimes I choose to flow in alcohol
10:09I just don't like being alone
10:16Deny the romances that I'm prone to
10:23But for now
10:25Will you ride with me?
10:30Will you ride with me instead?
10:33Will you ride with me instead?
10:37I can see that you're teasing me
10:52Know you're leading me on
10:55Know you wanna take me there
10:58Are we getting too close to the sun?
11:02Oh, you wanna be platonic
11:04Or you shall be honest
11:08Cause I won't even bother
11:12I hope you understand
11:15That I am not the man to give you what you need
11:22Oh, you don't like yourself at all
11:26But maybe you could fall
11:29With me, yeah
11:33With me, yeah
11:35I just don't like being alone
11:40Deny the romances that I'm prone to
11:47But for now
11:49Will you ride with me, yeah?
11:54Will you ride with me instead?
11:57Will you ride with me instead?
12:01Do you realize
12:04That I'm flowing in the skies
12:08Guided by surprises here
12:11I feel better
12:13Do you feel the pleasure
12:15From my size?
12:17Oh
12:24I can't tell if you made
12:26Some room for two
12:28I can't tell if you faltered
12:31What's the use?
12:33I can't tell you nothing
12:35I just don't like
12:38Being alone
12:40Deny the romances
12:44That I'm prone to
12:47But for now
12:49Will you ride with me, yeah?
12:54Ride with me instead
12:57Will you ride with me instead?
13:01основor
13:02Hey
13:03Oh
13:04Oh
13:06Oh
13:16Ooh
13:18eligor
13:19tao
13:20Da
13:31I'm connected to you
14:01I'm so tethered to hues that vibrate
14:05A sensation so radiantly true
14:07I'm surprised I went through
14:10A thousand eyes that drew me to places
14:14I ain't going to
14:15For a moment it seemed
14:17For a second I beamed
14:20A difference in heaviness that weighed over me
14:23Collectively bare
14:25Your heart needs repair
14:27But this ain't count as what we share
14:31It's ticking away
14:33Ticking away
14:35Away, away, away
14:38It's ticking away
14:41Ticking away
14:43Away, away
14:45Let's take a midnight drive
14:48Cruise through city lights
14:50Embrace the air and just forget
14:53About our plights
14:54We can lay here
14:56Our minds fleeting elsewhere
14:58Let's just disappear
15:00They seem to misconstrue
15:04Our inhibitions
15:05Here with you
15:07I stay reminiscing
15:09About forever in a day
15:12Away from here to outer space
15:18It's ticking away
15:20Ticking away
15:22Away, away, away
15:25It's ticking away
15:28Tick, ticking away
15:30Away, away, away
15:49I know it, I know it
15:59I know it, I know it
16:03I'm connected to you
16:08I'm so tethered to you
16:09That vibrate a sensation so radiantly true
16:14I'm surprised I went through
16:16A thousand eyes
16:19For a moment it seemed
16:24For a lifetime I dreamed of love
16:27I always adore
16:29I collectively bear
16:32My heart needs repair
16:33But this ain't count
16:35We'll always share
16:36It's ticking away
16:40Ticking away
16:41Away, away, away
16:44It's ticking away
16:47Ticking away, away, away, away
16:52It's ticking away
16:55Ticking away, away, away, away
17:00It's ticking away
17:03Ha, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh

17:41Ah, yeah, one, ah, ah, yeah
17:47It's taken away, it's taken away, away
17:54Oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
18:03Thank you all for tuning in, peace out
18:05Beware that your skin bears so much power
18:08That it threatens those who envy you
18:10They are callous and cruel, evil and tireless
18:14And they are efforts to make you lose sight of what you are
18:17Black and beautiful and wonderful
18:19And talented and glorious and fabulous
18:22strong and gracious but all they want to do is take us away from our homes away from our loved
18:29ones they marginalize us until we become fertilizer for the soil in which they force us back into
18:34i don't understand why i can never understand why from the free world to right here at home in
18:41africa they continue to feel superior but they are not we are kings and queens no matter how
18:48many times they suppress us we're dismantling the system that they think will possess us non-black
18:53and white people i'm looking at you to connect with us because we're tired of trying to prove
18:59our lives have meaning hear me loud and clear when i tell you we will breathe we will breathe
19:07we will continue to breathe
