EN EL DESIERTO

You placed your body
in the back of a trunk.
What were the words,
the words that you whispered.
What were your thoughts,
and the feeling in your body.
I could never understand
the pain you went through.
All you hoped for
was just an illusion.

INFESTADO

Doesn’t feel safe anywhere,
my sanctuary is infested.
They come at night.
Maybe they’ll get in.
Nothing calms this fear.
I’m losing sleep, I cannot sleep.
I’m losing sleep, I cannot sleep.
I need a place to rest.
My sanctuary is under attack.
Let me rest.

THREAT

Am I a threat?!
My brown is what you desire,
my brown is what disgusts you,
surveilling my every move--
ownership, one way or another,
telling us over and over, our
bodies don't belong to us.
Am I...
Am I...
Am I a threat?!

BROWN
01:57
|

|
I tried denying my brown,
avoided conversations
about who I am or where I came from
And I learned to hate myself
until I learned to hate white supremacy.
I will not abide by your standards
or assimilate for your pleasure,
I understand my power
and the beauty of my skin.
And I learned to hate myself
until I learned to hate white supremacy.
We learn to hate white supremacy.
We learn to hate white supremacy.

MADRE

|

|
You never had the time to dream
and I never looked down on you for that.
You never had the time to dream,
your hands, exhausted, still holding mine.
All I want in this world:
for you to find your peace,
to have the time to rest,
not worry about tomorrow.
Time will bring you peace,
one day you'll find justice.

ANTES QUE YO
01:00
|
|||
|
I come from a line of survivors
de resentidas y vengadoras.
My mother, she never learned how to forgive.
Sharp tongue, she made sure they all knew what he did.
My grandmother, she loved her own way
saying “I love you” was foreign to her
Day by day,
heal myself.

COMPA Brooklyn, New York
Compa was a hardcore band from Brooklyn, NY.
Informed by the perspectives of being
working class, queer, a woman of color, and the children of undocumented immigrants, Compa’s music is a diatribe against white supremacy, a tribute to the migration stories that made them and to the people that they love.
