Propaganda
Fan Mail
[Intro: Micah Bournes]
By the end of this verse
You gon’ need antiseptic
These words slice nerves
Hope you know that it’s bless-ed
Be the wounds of friends over enemy kisses
Can’t schmooze and front after all these offenses
I been educatin’ with inspirational truth
But times like this I spit straight rebukes
Religious hypocrites white american pastors
Spoke of integrity, purity when they blasted
President Bill Clinton Back in 90 and 8
But support a chauvinistic prideful bigot today
I wonder what they would say if Donald J. was a Democrat
Moral compass point to where the power and the money at
Whitewashed tombs only fools could ignore
How the very same Lord that you claim to adore
Reserved the harsh words for people just like you
Who quoted all the scripture but was blind to the truth
Travelin’ overseas and you proselytize
Just to raise up mini me-s twice as evil inside
Tokenizin’ the prophets like Dr. Martin the King
When your fathers were the mockers tellin’ him not to dream
You evil brood of vipers shed the blood of the righteous
You should fear the wrath of God but you talkin’ bout ISIS
The house of prayer should be inviting to every nation
But you filled it with thieves
Time to turn these tables
[Verse 1: Micah Bournes]
I’m sorry if this come as a surprise
I was never here to give you what you like
I was never here to tickle your ears
And make you feel all kinda warm fuzzy inside
I pray I never do this for applause
And neither do I try to piss ‘em off
I’m committed to the truth
If they love it or they boo
I don’t pay no mind I answer to the Lord
Messiah tried to warn us on God
Said they blind even though they got eyes
‘Cause they threw him a parade
Then a couple more days
They was cryin’ for him to be crucified
Guarantee we gonna see a lot of hate
If we followin’ the leader of The Way
And we prolly see it most
From the very same folks who say
Glory Hallelujah all day

[Chorus: Micah Bournes]
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
Oh well ‘cause the truth I’m gon’ tell
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
Oh well Oh well
[Verse 2: Propaganda]
Gotta remember who you answer to
Who you write the anthems to
Who you raise ya hands to
Who dat Propaganda dude
Who be curing cancer
Who carry the answers
Who can unlock the dancers
Who be givin’ stanzas
Came to scorch the ground and make vegetation spring
I ain’t scared of hate mail
The conqueror sings
I ain’t made of paper mâché
I fortified my brain
I ain’t scared of pain
I understand my lane
Gadfly
Agitator
Underrated
Under radar
Under miner
Underling
Under the anointing
I don't check my DMs I answer to a deity
Ain’t worried ‘bout no per diem
Call it like I see ‘em
[Chorus: Micah Bournes]
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
Oh well ‘cause the truth I’m gon’ tell
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
My fan mail is turnin’ to hate mail
Oh well Oh well

[Verse 3: Micah Bournes]
Separation of the Church and state is written
In our laws with the freedom of religion
Plus you claim that our nation has biblical foundations
Fascinating, let me ask you somethin’ Christian
If you think a Muslim is your enemy
And your Savior say to love your enemies
Then you ain’t got no excuse and I really am confused
Why you wanna ban Islamic Refugees
If the Bible say you s’pose to love your neighbor
And to be hospitable even to strangers
Tell me why most of your friends go the very same skin
You don’t even know the people you afraid of
The crazy thing about it all to me
Jesus was a middle-eastern refugee
Mama Africa embraced him
But America so racist
Baby Jesus woulda been a casualty, Oh well

[Outro: Micah Bournes]
Woah Micah woah
Woah Micah woah
We we liked you better when you wasn’t so bold
Laugh Micah laugh
Laugh Micah laugh
We we liked you better when you wasn’t so mad
Chill Micah chill
Chill Micah chill
We we liked you better when you wasn’t so real
Rap Micah rap
But not about that
We we liked you better when you wasn’t so BLACK
