Categorical Imperative

"In other words, the word consent is used
As a proxy for freedom, desire, and mutuality
In settings where that isn't actually what's happening"

Persuasion as a method of consent
Detained, The Unique under duress
Just speak from ya chest
Discovering self-interest
And eat what we digest
Like avians building nests
Sex as a symbol for control like
Black power to fists
Attacked, collared, and pissed
Get ragdolled with wit
Bagged, wallowed, and whipped
By the state and society
Keep well-being via freedom and sobriety
Homie, lowkey, still getting played like Loki
Sony and market affairs
Moving and acting impaired
Choosings really aren't fair
And spooked by the masses and their...
Expectations, sex and races, complex spaces, states and nations
And the abstract concept of god
Act through the Ego, ignoring all the facade

"Consent is a term that's generally used, in normal everyday parlance,
As a synonym for freedom"

Ego, we go, he know, she know
Practice like a hitter that's playing the plates, Pete Rose
The act of getting richer is taking the cake, illegal
Exploit, the hate, the evil
Engorged in chains by regals
That's wage slavery, surplus value
Purchased foul move
Working through the burns and back bruise
Plus it's absurd how much you
Earn with that suit, yeah
Niggas really wish they heard us now too

"What it is, has to do with consent to the state
And how you know people are consenting to a state is
That you don't leave
And mostly, people don't ask the question anymore
'Is the state legitimate?'
So, therefore, they're not trying to come up with
'If it wasn't, how would we know?'
And the answer would be
That people left
Whether it's really realistic, I mean
Whether leaving is a realistic standard for consent is
Just something I'd like to raise a question about"
