[Verse 1: DAP The Contract]
*You know I ain't from the gutter brother
But trust me the devil wears Prada brother*
Yeah, this ain't nothing new
Just some new shit that you ain't know you knew
You still in the dark, but say no to night and yes to day
Oh no don't pray for DKNY just to go decay in NY
That city ain't full of dreams, it's full of cattle
Full of sheep and full of shadows
Poppin pills and champagne showers
Well, the jig is up so put your hands up
And no don't tell nobody I don't know no nobodies
I don't know no yes men, nah man
I know kids that don't love nobody
They life hard as a bitch, and they ain't got no money
So everybody on the same shit
Looking for big change and shit, but that ain't ever changing shit
Money make cocaine flip, and make a brother brain trip
I'm pissing on your painted picture 'cause that shit ain't right
Nah, life ain't sugar cane my nigga, it ain't sour neither
It's plainly white rice
Let me paint a little picture of the white life
Imagine a room, walls painted green 'cause you richer
Little yellow for your sunshine 'cause never no night time
And ocean blue for heaven too, you never need a night light
Got polka dots all on your chair, 'cause black and white can mix right?
It's a beautiful sight, it sits right until you blink for a second
And everybody dead, it's like you flipped the switch on a black light
But shit that's just the black life
[Hook: DAP The Contract & Sebastián ( )tero]
Let this be your alcohol, yeah, sip a little liquor
You can drown your sorrows here, go on cry me a river
No tissues for your issues, you don't need no mixer sister
Dont let these systems sink into YOur system sister
All our little brothers dying, little sisters too
This ain't a Cold War, we looking like Crimea nigga
No fixes for those victims only see you later
Don't let the system in your system sister
Take a shot with me
Take a shot with me
Drink it all away a shot of Henny
Take a show with me
Take a shot with me
Take a shot with me
Rest the piece against my head one shot in me
Take a show with me
[Verse 2: Sebastián ( )tero & DAP The Contract]
Abro los ojos por primera vez, en el noventa y seis
Mas dos años después se
Resentían los diez años de
Estados Unidos bebiendo nuestro café
Y pues
En el 2000 partimos hacia el viejo mundo
Trazando un nuevo rumbo
Con cambios rotundos
Estaba muy pequeño para entender
Que existe gente mezquina incapaz de comprender
Fue así
Un día por la rambla yo vi
Mil caras, mil disfraces pero solo me acuerdo de una
Mujer albanesa con su velo en su cabeza
Pidiendo limosna sin manos y sin piernas
Y
Los mismos ojos también vieron cómo el gobierno
Destruía las metas y sueños de muchos niños
Dominicanos de padres haitianos
Indocumentados
Por la fucking culpa del racismo
Mi corazón palpita con dolor
Cada vez que leo, escucho
Una historia de injusticia
Ay, cómo duele
Sentarse y esperar a que esto vaya a cambiar
No va a funcionar jamás
Un shot podrá aliviar nuestra tristeza y pesar
Nada más
Así que brindemos por la esperanza y las fuerzas
Que te levantan
Y anda
¡Lucha y anda!
DAP The Contract:
And colours ain't mean anything
We're brothers over everything
Don't let nobody cage you!
The devil got a crib right in the city of angels
But love is in the air no never fear let me tell you
When you cry we can hear you
DAP The Contract & Sebastián ( )tero:
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."
Sebastián ( )tero:
Tenemos el poder
De poder transformar el mundo
Si eso es lo que queremos hacer
¿Lo ves?
