INFIDELPHIA – Ode to Ayaan Hirsi Ali
Don’t wanna live my mama’s life
Bade my goodbye to her stiff back
Beat my wings 2 the sky
Scratched out my own education
In a ready-made home on a rubbish heap
Today’s my new birthday
I’m ‘onna fly away free
Words forbidden to express
Sprouted wings & flew from her holy mouth
Into the new wilderness,
“I draw a line in the sand
Set apart from this clan
Here I stand
I am Hirsi Ali Ayaan”
Two lips speak with one tongue
Beggared by invasion
All stitched up
Forever young
But up comes her new form
Barkin right back at the screen
Reminds her how far she’s come
And where she’s been
Words forbidden to express
Sprouted wings & flew from her holy mouth
Into the new wilderness,
“I draw a line in the sand
I am not of this clan
Here I stand
I am Hirsi Ali Ayaan
O Father… is it sacriledge
In my daydreams I borrow from privilege
If you love me, don’t you want me there
With the sun on my skin, the wind in my hair?
Swear I’ll be careful
Gonna unwrap my fear
Walk tall as the stars
To songs of the spheres
Theres a price for the promise
I made in my youth
But as Allah’s my witness:
I will not back down from the truth
Blind faith in her inferiority
Go on I dare ya, open the gate
See how the caged bird retreats
Rattle my cage with the turn of the page
With all the sex & drugs on the street
Nothin to talk about but the will of the soul
And my sisters’ free speech
Secularised or apostate
Well what’s it take to stop the gendercide,”
Say’s Ms Infidel incarnate
“I draw a line in the sand
Step up & over this clan
Here I stand
I am Hirsi Ali Ayaan”
