[Spoken: Rosario Dawson]
Dear Diary, Wednesday, 1999
Night before Thanksgiving:
Wondering what the Holy Day…
I got a lot to be thankful for
While my people’s catchin’ hell in the worst way
There’s as many black males and Latinos in jail as there are in the streets, OK?
Is it my imagination or is there some deviation from the part that God wanted us to play?
First of all, there’s the name “Christmas”:
Which means, get this, “Send Christ away”
"Mass" from the Latin word "missa" as spoken by the priests of old
We’re saying if the face of the true King was shown today
To its foundations would shake the earth
And so the reason for the ganda and propa:
To distort the king’s color and the date of his birth
Open your mind, there’s not much time
This is Rosario, 1999
