Evan

Evan is a Welsh masculine given name derived from "Iefan", a Welsh form for the name John. In other languages it could be compared to "Ivan", "Ian", and "Juan"; the name John itself is derived from the ancient Hebrew name יְהֹוחָנָן‎ Yəhôḥānān, which means "Yahweh is gracious". Evan is also the shortened version of the Greek names "Evangelos" (meaning "good messenger") and "Evander" (meaning "good man"). The name is also occasionally given to women, as with actress Evan Rachel Wood. It may be encountered as a surname, of which Evans is the most common iteration. Other languages also assign meaning to Evan as a word or name. It is related to the Gaelic word "Eóghan" meaning "youth" or "young warrior", and means "right-handed" in Scots.

I'm sorry, but I'm going back to the Nat. Ams
Sorry, not sorry 'cause I'm feeling scammed
Native Americans, I thought they were the Indians
Back in school, they didn't talk about dominion
There's a big tube Oil barrons wanna have
With some supports sticking down into a holy grave
I'm not taking sides or alienating anyone
I'm just looking for the truth (boy), now give me some

I thought the days of Pocahontas, George Wash', Andrew Jackson were over
I see the mean in 2016
It's still the average when I got sober
Or wise to what got obscured from my eyes
Even now, they're fighting in October
An even stalemate, to my surprise
Can only wonder what'll be when it's all over
Will the barrons build it through there or not
Will the tribe be steadfast, or bend over (Yoga!)
Only way to make sense of today
Is to both perspectives, cover
Oil barrons first, then the Nat. Ams
Green light, like a three leaf clover (Bugs Bunny)

Oil barrons often get it from their parents
And/or the first time they see an oil derrick
Shoot crude, we don't mean to be rude
It's just that gas makes the world go round, Eric
Dude, we all wanna see what we can do
Is it too much if we get rich off of it, too
Coming from me, you got a simple point there
Only thing is that discrimination, it impairs
A little bit of your judgement, just know as you collect
A human life is worth more than a check

Thank you oil barrons
Your candid and honest perspectives are much appreciated
You're great businesspeople
Nat. Ams., what you gotta say?

Well, there seems to be a misunderstanding
Happiness and money don't seem too demanding
Filial piety, I see it in the eye of thee
We wanna honor our ancestors too, I see
All that they gave we remember at the grave
And that is why this land, they can't have (You know)
We were like the slaves that were seldom bought or sold
13th suggests that was getting old
Haven't I told y'all that evicting us, corralling us
Are two things that'll just lead to you battling us
Little rocky way to make your case (Egoes)
With all this aggression, we be losing pace
Wanna see a victory, we can't a taste
Water cannons spraying, along with the mace
At face value, it seems
Like we got no shot. Gunshot. Sp(oil) ain't clean. Whatchu tryna say to me as you taking my
Mugshot? ("Ugh" shots.) Divergents on the scene, Take my picture like Shailene
Woodley. Would we -- (would we) Would we
Like a pipeline on our spine? "Or
Should we, should we (nawh) should we
Change our minds? And if so, what for
Could be, could be (is) could be
That we so-called Indians are people, too. And
Surely, surely (very) surely
Want this land as much as you do

All of this may seem like a moot point. What I'm saying is
This thing may still matter if -- Oh, they changed it

Good job Barack. You helped to save your legacy

I know you know why I'm saying this
So you shouldn't be surprised when you're playing it
You'd be kinder to our current president
If he was not black and had fairer skin
Even the fact that we call it "fairer skin"
It's deeply rooted, discriminatory preferences
It's not a white man's problem, it's a blind man's problem
And all I'm tryna say is 

Y'all
Let's solve it

Geez

Blasphemy!
