"Citizens of a Supadupa Nature" recounts the origin stories of two young extraunordinary individuals tapping into their supadupa abilities: Annie Lee & Raul.
Lyrics
Driving around in my vehicle & my mind begins to drift
Looking at all the people go & wondering what makes each of them diff
Now ain't this what puts that funk in that funklore
'cause there's little to be seen but we know there's much more
& I trip 'cause I use my superpowers daily
& I can't be the only one living out here baby
It's gotta be others like me or else I might be crazy
Well I am crazy but don't tell my neighbors
Calling all citizens of a supadupa nature
Everybody's gotta story to tell
& everybody's gotta special talent
Everybody's been through some kinda hell
& there's mysteries you don't know about them
Peep the scene, her name is Annie Lee
Golden child in her family tree
Firstborn generation Chinese American Dynasty
Humble beginnings, a diner named Lee's
where good ol' workin' folk could sit down & chow
or take-out, either way the git down is loud
Straight dank, not wood
the food was that good
3 course plate for the joog
Born the year of the dragon, she musta been heaven sent
Benevolent baby with supernatural intelligence
Before she could crawl, she gauged the feng shui
& from a young age, she taught herself how to sungaze
A lost ancient practice
An instinctual gift, it was a cause of her aspects
She'd gaze at the sun with her naked eyes
Absorb its power & blaze her fire inside
Once her parents found out, they chastised her
So they put her in Catholic school & baptized her
Indoctrination heavy but she only grew wiser
& still sungazed because it truly energized her
One night, closing time at the restaurant
bursted in 2 masked thugs with firearms
pointed at her parents, behind the counter frightened
So she blasted sun flame out of her eyes & powderized them
Everybody's gotta story to tell
& everybody's gotta hidden supapower
Everybody's been through some kinda hell
& there's mysteries you don't know about them
Peep the scene, His name is Raul
Branded a lonewolf in his highschool
Kinda dude nobody would talk to 'cuz he's not cool
Plus the way he looked at you, supernatural, cold as nosferatu
Dressed in all black, kinda goth boy charm
Lived on the outskirts in a small old farm
though he never caused no harm
Hardly spoke a word or ever called for alarm
but that didn't stop Troy & Trevor
from inflicting the trauma the boy remembers forever
Troy & Trevor got together & followed Raul after school
& cornered him on a dusty road that afternoon
Raul tried to escape those cats
but Troy tripped him & Trevor had the baseball bat
Trevor was an instigator so he applied peer pressure
made Troy take the bat because he feared feeling lesser
It was messed up, He broke both of Raul's arms
His mom wanted to call the cops but all he wanted was to move on
In his heart, he already forgave them
& even prayed out loud he'd have a chance one day to save them
As things unfolded
the schoolyear went on & ain't one noticed
Troy & Trevor grew distant until one moment
Fate brought them together in a synchronized omen
They crossed paths on that same dusty road
but they didn't see the drunk trucker up close
Raul flew down from the sky
sweeping them up on his side
They said, "We didn't know you could fly"
He said, "Neither did I"
& this concludes tonight's episode of Citizens of a Supadupa Nature
