Shouts - Music from the Rooftops! It’s not a strategy, it’s being real. I am many things, rapper being one of them. But as a human being I am fiercely invested in the fight for justice, equality and the protection of our earth and animals. While not all of my music is overtly political, I am a Protest Music artist, so that’s what I’m going to put out."

- from our interview with Awkword: shoutsmusic.blog/protest-music-interview-awkword Favorite track: Radio 2.0 ft. KRS-One, Dug Infinite, Brimstone127 & Mista Lawnge (of Black Sheep) [prod. by Vice Souletric].

[Intro: AWKWORD] Yo. Put your fucking champagne down The revolution is coming Let's get it cracking, you motherfuckers People's Champion right here, let's do this [Hook: AWKWORD] x2 Right is right, (get 'em), wrong is wrong Sick of all the mis-advice, why I'm singing this song Hating how you live your life, why you're singing along I'm The People's Champion, Torah, Bible, Koran [Verse 1: AWKWORD] Compassionate person who's always cared about people On the rooftop of the building, picking them off, I've gone lethal Ain't nobody ever understand, but in death we're all equal Mother fuck, I know you don't get it, obsessed that killing's not legal Wow, I'm called evil, that's why it ain't nice to meet you It's so simple to me, I view this shit as if it's see through Rock a tattoo of the Star of David, the sacrificial Hebrew Cleaning up the world's mess, that's the dirt that we do Is it better to be miserable, living your life cursed on this earth Or better to be delivered in a hearse, to your whole family, it still hurts The pain is inevitable, plus, the pain is relative Is it better to be resting in peace, or dragged down by sedatives To dwell in the present, is to be broken down by the president But I ain't gon let that shit happen, not for my Sub-City residents Call me a renegade, destroyer, sicko, burning my own path I'm the sick sadistic savior, yo, you're doing the wrong math

"I'm White Ali, Black Jesus, Bad Santa 36 bees, Rap Genius, can't stand ya Dante, and it's a cold day in Hell Like the New York City streets, something smells It's undisputed, I'm underrated, I'm Raymond Felton It's from the music for when you play it to David Geffin They say it's great in Heaven, it'll make up for this But it was written by people afraid not to exist I thought of everything, even slitting my wrists Now I use my favorite weapon to awaken you kids It aint all peace, man, we cant trust the police And I bet you as a youth you got touched by a priest We supposed to be civilized, still nuts in the streets Everybody say Darwin, taking cuts from the weak And Hip Hop, it's not immune to the wackness Half the best artists still placed on the blacklist A lot a stylists, starting rap careers I bet their whole bandwagon, they'll be gone in a year A trend is a trend, and the end is the end So when dude's light fades, most of 'em are pretend But not for you, cause you here, and you fux with us That's love, you're why I feel that I can, open up Im thankful, for all yall, put your trust in us And ill do everything I can, not to fuck, it up" -- AWKWORD
