So Far Away

[Testo di "So Far Away"]

[Intro]
Gentlemen, gentlemen please, gentlemen, please
We are about to [drop?] in Italy, right… now
It’s a very difficult job and...
Did everybody get through it? Is everything fine?

[Ritornello x2]
So far away
So far away
So far away
Italy to Africa

[Strofa 1]
Woke up in the morning, getting ready for a trip
Suitcase by the bus by the size of my grip
Let me see, let me see
Did I forget something? Passport
I got my dough and my walkman, pump it to a hip-hop sound
8 o’clock in the evening, plane about to touch the ground
Expectation, anticipatin’, waitin’
For the new vibe around the corner
In Italy I’m a foreigner, at the dogana “Nah man ain’t got a [?]”
So why does Mr Whoop Whoop keep stressin’ me, disrespectin’ me, undressin’ me
Don’t know what he expects to see, or hear
Fear as I enter a new frontier
Here I am, ready, willing, able
Gotta find a job that’s stable, put some food on my table
And find a place to sleep, keep [?] that’s different
That’s why in Italy I can still [?]

[Ritornello x2]
So far away
So far away
So far away
Italy to Africa

[Strofa 2]
Originality [?]
Flick, when you get a chance to see it, be it
Enter it psychologically and try to comprehend it
Send it in an envelope to your every-day behavior
Gotta try my brother, gotta try and love your neighbour
Flavor of the film - black, but trying and get over
Dre Love, già sai, Messaggeri della Dopa
Hope ya note the particular style that I’m displaying
And at the same time funky messenger I’m [?]
Need to open your mind, need to open your mind
You gotta gotta gotta open your mind like an oyster
Open up, a pearl, [woe?] for the evil and much injustice done to my black people
Italy the Africa, Italy the Africa, laugh at ya if you say my style is whack
People black like onyx, rocking from the Phonic just to get my point across
Uh, check it out, yo
Ah yes here I am, in the great big city
Where the people show no shame and the streets know pity
Here I am, in the great big city
Where the people show no shame…
