about
Amirrorca= the meaning by PhilGoodX7
Where was my mind at all of this volatile 2020? As far as politics go, all over the place! I’m sure a majority of people felt the same. A pot of racial issues boils over, injustices within the system, political polarization, media fanning any flame they can, and a government that can’t seem to fully practice the life, liberty and pursuit of happiness that its nation was founded on. The message and feeling behind this record comes from a place of chaos. It’s not a political statement; it’s me translating the overall vibe that the 2020 political atmosphere gave off. I think a lot of us were struggling internally during 2020, and it became harder to deal with those problems because of how much we were getting tagged externally.
Wake up to a “Did you vote?” -texts from random numbers, get on social media and scroll through countless people arguing their opinion, views, interests and beliefs, watch TV and see an ad telling you to vote for this government official, then literally the very next ad is telling you not to vote for that same official, media throwing this narrative at you, and that one, and those ones. It felt so chaotic trying navigating through that atmosphere and that is what inspired me to write this. The track doesn’t really slow down because it’s reciprocating the energy given that made it. I chose the name “Amirrorca” to reflect that message. What this country does has a major effect on all of us, it reflects on all of us. The country is also a reflection of us to the outside world, a mirror, with that in mind I came up with America / Amirrorca .

LYRICS
Verse 1/State of America I'm stating my mind, listen up quick or you staying behind, stand for the flag, but it's standing for what, state of my conscious re-flecting my country, all this corruption brings all the chaos , how y'all sleep comfortably, everything's crumbling, y'all trying to contemplate like a séance, yeah its real complicated and the cause, left and the right, both hypocritical yelling unite, while promoting bigger fuel selling divide, political principals telling us lies, this aint a vibe and maybe I been, conditioned to think everything is wrong, yeah especially when someone's race involved, got me thinking this nations a sing along, sample niggas that scream to police alarms, cause they know every nigga will be a star, empty clips till we soundless then see us off, no more silence we needing police reform, that's a great start/verse 2/ next Ima need a refund for all the Bullshit, I'm talking full reparations, 400 years, 400 PlayStation, 40 acres and a mule that can hold like 400 Oz, some hoes, more dope, fur coat and a diamond chain with bracelets that I’m saving for thanksgiving, my cousin getting out so I’m waiting, on that plus Hennessey, lecture and a speech, fuck all that give me black supremacy, fuck all that ima need your empathy, we can relate past negative energy, FUCK ALL NEGATIVE ENERGY, /verse 3/ realize how it adds up, someone shattered this amirrorca, that’s 7 years of bad luck, I’m suspicious of these superstitions cause they got us all out of character, suffering from something that you don’t understand, who’s telling us, to understand each other and we all are man(kind), and love each other, too much to ask, well fuck it then, get to busting then, get to busting heads, get to pumping lead, make it buck and then, make it buck again, but that’s what they want, let me calm it down, get it organized, make another plan, they gon understand we,
-
chorus
