...We’ve never stopped believing. Yardfest, then, is a stage where we pretend to be normal kids according to what we suppose normal kids must be like.

Wu-Tang lyrics are filled with culturally astute allusions, perfect for Harvard eggheads (i.e., “Socrates’ philosophies and hypotheses / Can’t define how I be droppin’ these mockeries”). Other verses address issues salient to Harvard students, like the Mather residents...
