letra de same sameness - captains of the imagination
[scratches: dj tiny tim]
i’m rapping
[verse 1: imagine]
from the same world but don’t share the same hate
the same love, the same words or the same taste
yet we all take the same drug
share the same earth but not the same fate
blame the same stuff, give the same birth to a same race
make the same mistake of following the same fury
everybody wants to have the same face of a same beauty
the same difference of the same discrimination
the same shame of the same intimidation
play the same game of the same manipulation
share the same pain of the same abomination
yet we forget the same elegance of the same nature
that we are destroying with the same hatred
the same greed of the same impatience
the same pity of a same nation
(a same nation)
[chorus: imagine and dr koul]
we want the same this, we want the same that
we want the same shit and we want the same cr-p
the same hits for the same raps
same fibs for the same facts
want the same as the same sameness
we want the same this, we want the same that
we want the same shit and we want the same cr-p
the same hits for the same raps
same fibs for the same facts
want the same as the same sameness
[verse 2: dr koul]
we’ve been looking for a different love in a different place
an opposite reality to what we had chased
we’re lost in a paradox with logic as chains
searching for the strange that we long to escape
we want the same laws, with a different face
or is it different laws with the same citizen kane?
we want problems to solve problems that we made
we want to eat healthy junk and go jump off a plane!
radiating with a different aim. do we want to bomb terrorists
or remember that we gave them the name?
do we want to welcome refugees? or do we shame them
and blame them for the change in the streets?
we want a different difference, with less interference
there’s more fear when we don’t see
there’s no difference between us
cartesian materialism, aristotelean
i want more taoism, buddhism so that we can
embrace the oneness, the sameness of thoughts we have
but then again, is that just me wanting a different path?
when we see the sameness in difference
that’s hip hop culture: with love for all citizens
[chorus: imagine and dr koul]
[verse 3: evita koné]
we fighting so hard though we up against the ropes
dying for our hopes, same strokes for different folks
the bashful and the wise wanna try to make a change
but they buried alive by those who shoot at close range
we make the same mistakes, expecting different results:
a hug from a slap, a kiss from an insult
they wanna wanna take control with a few they consult
rights trickle from the top, wonder why we revolt?
putting so much emphasis on bitterness and differences
we say that’s what progress is, it’s really the antithesis
the tip of the iceberg in this burning ship we sinking in
envy is the poison in the chalice that we drinking in
same shame different day, same slave different pay
same game we wish we could play
endangers us in similar ways
being proud of where you from is all well and good
but when i think about it, we all from the same hood
[chorus: imagine and dr koul]

i’m rapping, i’m rapping

captains of the imagination
