about

featuring Garrison Hawk from Bill Laswell's Method of Defiance

lyrics

People like to make light of it
They see it on the cover of a magazine
People like to make fun of it
They think it’s only part of celebrity scene
Reality is people dying
Reality is people starving
It’s a hex, it’s a vex on our nation (nation, nation)
It’s no exaggeration

AnnaRexia AnnaRexia
Anna anna anna anna rexia
Anna anna anna anna rexia
AnnaRexia
AnnaRexia

so what's the message we are sending
why self-hatred we promote
with them TV, newspaper, magazine
how about time we make some money w/ a different plan
get real see people suffer the consequence
save yourself from suicidal trench
internet promoting them zero size jeans
give them such terrible delusional dreams

The world is topsy turvy
When our girls don’t like their curvy

AnnaRexia AnnaRexia
Anna Anna Anna Anna Rexia
Anna anna anna anna rexia

AnnaRexia

Lose 10 more lbs
lose 10 more lbs
lose 10 more lbs
just another 10 lbs

Why do our girls feel too big for their bodies?
Why do our girls feel too small in this world?

Lose 10 more lbs
(for the way she used to look so nice)
Lose 10 more lbs
(anything to make her body right)

She can’t get away from the demons in her head
She wanna walk around like the living dead

Lose 10 more lbs
(it's like the shadow give her body a fight)
Lose 10 more lbs
(procrastinating to the body type)

She-body gonna eat itself alive
Heart and brain they cannot survive
AnnaRexia
(they walk around and look so feeble so)
AnnaRexia
(don't be take over by the evil so)

Reality is people dying
Reality is people starving
It’s a hex, it’s a vex on our nation
(day to day we have to pray)
It’s no exaggeration

Anna Rexia Anna Rexia
Anna anna anna anna rexia
Anna anna anna anna rexia
Anna Rexia Anna Rexia
Anna Anna Anna Anna Rexia
Anna Rexia Anna Rexia
Anna Anna Anna Anna Rexia
Anna Anna Anna Anna Rexia
Anna Rexia Anna Rexia
(somebody need to fix this)

She’s on a hunger strike till her world is right
on a hunger strike till her life is right
It’s not a war but it is a war
It’s an internal war
It’s a cultural war
a spiritual war
Believe in life
