MASS(ACRES) from LABUAD MEKLOOQ by mirrored fatality

a protest anthem for farmers on planet earth. a wrath-driven chant for agrarian, climate, and land sovereignty revolutions worldwide. this frenzied excavation is rooted in the food justice and mutual aid work of star route farm and amanda wong, our one and only queer freaky farmer daddy who mobilized a whole movement in upstate new york to get free organic food to the people for free in new york and who without their selfless sacrifice - mirrored fatality would not exist. we dedicate this song to the murdered indigenous farmers of the philippines and south asia and every dirty and stubborn qtbipoc farmer in amerikkka devoted to annihilating the corrupt and exploitative u.s. food system seed-by-seed.

Lyrics

people and plants before profit
no more masters
eat small vegetables
decay the empire

war on food
war on land
we demand

rematriation
no more deforestation
sovereignty
no more private property
nutrition
no more ammunition

compost slumlords
burning crops, planting ops

uproot warlords
spreading poisons, drilling oceans

obliterate the state
importing gluttony
exporting inequity
devouring nitrogen

exploited hands
processed theft
only wastelands are left

the struggle for land
scorches us all
resource extraction will fall

when farmers harvest their own seeds
and the massacres of the ruling class succeeds

may we pluck tomorrow from sacrificed terrains
