This is a poem by Olin Tezcatlipoca, director of Mexica Movement. It is a meditation on finding Nican Tlaca (Indigenous) enlightenment for Cemanahuac liberation. Cemanahuac is what is falsely called "the Americas"
TEXT BELOW:
LIBERATION THROUGH ENLIGHTENMENT
Tonight it finally kicks in
like a song you've heard before
Tonight it finally kicks in
and you finally understand the lyrics
Tonight it finally kicks in
and you see its mighty importance
It's a kind of song
that you heard on other nights
It's a kind of song
that you didn't hear just right
It's a kind of song
that stays in your head on and on
It's the kind of thought
that you should have thought before
It's the kind of thought
that puts you to think deep wide high
It's the kind of thought
that can make you enlightened beyond imagination
But if you want to embrace it and hold it
you gotta stop lighting that bud
But if you want to embrace it and hold it
you gotta stop drinking till you're drunk
But if you want to embrace it and hold it
you gotta grow up quick now: to look at truth
You are living in
colonialism and white supremacy
You are living
as the white man's slave, his punk
You are living
but you're really dead, for all practical purposes
If you didn't have a clue before
you should have seen it in the mirror.
If you didn't have a clue before
you should have smelled it in the racism
If you didn't have a clue before
you should have looked for one
You're living in Racism
and white supremacy and evil
You're living in racism
and colonialism and lies
You're living in racism
as a white man's whore, the slave, the fool
Simple big decision:
get up off your knees, now
Simple big decision:
pick up your dignity with courage
Simple big decision:
learn some real self-respect, a sense of honor
Learning learning, then you say.
"I am Nican Tlaca"
Learning learning, they you say
"This is all my people's land"
Learning learning, then you say,
"Not America, this Cemanahuac"
Little little, little by little,
one step, one fact, one bit of big knowledge
Little little, little by little
a thousand important facts about being Nican Tlaca
Little little, little by little
liberation through education, then say proudly
I am Nican Tlaca
part of the collective owners of this continent
I am Nican Tlaca
the full-blood and mixed-blood are one people
I am Nican Tlaca
a child of genius civilizations and great accomplishments
I am a warrior student teacher of Cemanahuac
I stand learning teaching, confronting colonialism
I am a warrior student teacher of Cemanahuac
I am part of liberation, putting an end to white supremacy
I am a warrior student teacher of Cemanahuac
I am true honor speaking in actions, against evil
Tonight it finally kicks in
like a song you've heard before
Tonight it finally kicks in
and you finally understand the lyrics
Tonight it finally kicks in
and you see its mighty importance
It's the song you have been waiting for,
the song that frees you and our people
It's the song you have been waiting for
that now you hear just right, it's liberating
It's the song you have been waiting for
that stays inside your head, inside your heart, liberating every part of you
It's the kind of thought
that you should have thought before
It's the kind of thought
that puts you to think deep wide high
It's the kind of thought
that makes you enlightened beyond imagination
IT BECOMES THE REALITY OF YOUR LIFE
IT BECOMES THE LIBERATION OF ALL OUR PEOPLE
