《Una Palabra》歌词

[00:00:01] Una Palabra - Outlandish

[00:00:01] This ain't a story 'bout race color or creed

[00:00:03] It's a story 'bout hate envy and greed

[00:00:04] Talk about ambitions but don't want us to progress

[00:00:07] Ya talk about assistance but all we get is the stress

[00:00:10] U don t really wanna see me grow

[00:00:11] Hating on me choking on my flow

[00:00:14] U say we rude don't like our attitude

[00:00:16] We crude ain't got no gratitude

[00:00:18] But I wasn't born to be low I was born to rise

[00:00:21] Wasn't born to pretend or keep my faith in disguise

[00:00:23] Ain't got no freedom of speech

[00:00:25] No freedom to teach - make our kids out of reach

[00:00:27] Wanna break ties - alienated in their own land

[00:00:30] Running riot in the streets day by day getting out of hand

[00:00:33] U don't want me to be an inspiration

[00:00:35] U wanna blame me for agitation

[00:00:36] How can u tell me 'bout participation

[00:00:38] When all u really want is segregation

[00:00:41] Una palabra no dice nada

[00:00:43] Y al mismo tiempo

[00:00:45] Lo esconde todo

[00:00:51] Como aquel viento que esconde el agua

[00:00:57] Como las flores que esconde el lodo

[00:01:02] One word contains nothing

[00:01:03] And at the same time

[00:01:04] It contains everything

[00:01:05] Like the air contains water

[00:01:07] Like the flowers contain the mire

[00:01:09] Is it my religion - u keep seeing as a threat

[00:01:12] U think it's all about - murder violence and death

[00:01:14] But do u care to find - find the truth

[00:01:16] Or is it easier to keep fronting and oppressing our youth

[00:01:19] Is this why I'm a be awestruck

[00:01:21] Damn these lies just make us stuck

[00:01:23] Bow down to something greater

[00:01:25] Nah forget that maybe later

[00:01:26] Really must be joking deceits and lies is all I see

[00:01:29] Should I be your enemy or should I trust your lies

[00:01:31] Should your treatment of my peeps make us forge them ties

[00:01:35] Got to tell me the truth as it is

[00:01:37] Or we'll be keeping coming back right here to this

[00:01:39] Second class citizen in my own home

[00:01:40] Been 30 years gone - and still no dome still gotta stay strong

[00:01:42] Thinking I'm thick trying to sell me this hypocrisy

[00:01:44] Heard it before u must be kidding me

[00:01:45] Wanna dictate who I marry

[00:01:46] And even what my sis should wear

[00:01:47] Then prevent her from a job

[00:01:49] Stuck on welfare - seems

[00:01:50] To provoke and oppress us is ok - seems

[00:01:52] Racism is cool - despite what u say

[00:01:54] Wanna blame us for ya shortcomings

[00:01:56] Just want a scapegoat

[00:01:58] Still seeing us like a problem

[00:02:00] Like we just off the boat

[00:02:01] Guess u wanted cheap labour to build ya home

[00:02:04] Una palabra no dice nada

[00:02:06] Y al mismo tiempo

[00:02:08] Lo esconde todo

[00:02:11] Como aquel viento que esconde el agua

[00:02:12] Como las flores que esconde el lodo

[00:02:16] Una Mirada no dice nada

[00:02:19] Y al mismo tiempo

[00:02:20] Lo dice todo

[00:02:22] Como la lluvia sobre tu cara

[00:02:25] O el Viejo mapa de algún tesoro

[00:02:45] One word contains nothing

[00:02:46] And at the same time

[00:02:47] It contains everything

[00:02:48] Like the air contains water

[00:02:49] Like the flowers contain the mire

[00:02:50] One look contains nothing

[00:02:51] And at the same time

[00:02:52] It contains everything

[00:02:52] Like the rain on your face

[00:02:54] Or an old map leading you to some treasure

[00:02:55] Where the next Abu Dharr at

[00:02:56] Where the next Khalid Ibn Walid aka Sayf-Allah at

[00:02:58] Tell us how we fuel this crime

[00:02:59] Everyday statistics everyday media - plenty of us doing time

[00:03:01] Why should I take the blame or shame

[00:03:03] When I know u just looking for someone to frame

[00:03:04] My individual freedom; abused

[00:03:04] Redicule of my deen my beliefs guess I be the new jew

[00:03:07] I've become the new ni**a of the world

[00:03:09] Product of your society adopted your values in their entirety

[00:03:11] Wasn't born like this I was made this way

[00:03:13] U like it or not player - I'm here to stay

[00:03:15] We walk the same streets breathe the same air

[00:03:18] Add to this state but do u even care

[00:03:21] Guess u gotta reciprocate

[00:03:21] Want us to be people of faith or people of hate

[00:03:23] U got your deen I got mine - okay
