letra de fortunate sun - guante & big cats

[guante]
every spirit i’ve ever met, inhabited flesh
blood and bone because magic alone can’t pay the rent
or make amends with history simple to ask for sympathy
but i’m not tryin’ to settle got empathy for my devils
there are days when i just wanna say: leave me alone
when my twitter feed’s lookin’ like a scene from the road
and despair is just so easy to hold, so sometimes you gotta hold it
sit with it, have a conversation
i’ve learned a lot from that particular spirit
i learned that i don’t have to sing that song just because i hear it
even if it’s my inheritance
i learned that there’s a link in between my cynicism and my arrogance
like: just because i don’t have the power
to run out the front door and magically fix everything
that doesn’t mean that i don’t have power
it’s just that it’s less mine, and more ours
so shout to those who fight on regardless
who don’t wait for the sun but light fires in the darkness
who will resist because they have to
who know: you don’t dance when they point the cannons at you
who know: that hope doesn’t float in the air
like a politician’s thoughts and prayers
nah it’s something we cultivate, every day on our hands and knees
we’re not here to harvest, we’re here to plant these seeds

i bring my ancestors with me
whether ancestor by blood or bibliography
i ain’t no senator’s son
more like the sun setting on the old world we gotta leave
i bring my grandchildren with me
whether grandchildren by blood or water rippling
i ain’t no millionaire’s son
i just see a million paths to victory, choose one

[tony the scribe]
i’ve done a lot of violence to people in my sp-ce
been a solipsist, been misogynist, been a fake
been an insecure -ssh0l- and immature blank
been broke, broke boundaries, and been a thin mate
been a rich kid talking over people who ain’t
i been a simp, played the fool to a king of the snakes
i been a godd-mn tool of the systems in place
but i’m not gonna give up and break
listen – i’m not a good person cause i’ve never caused a hurt
and i’ve never had to force myself to change
i’m a good person cause i work and i work and i work and i work
to find a better way
so i will die trying to make this dark world a little brighter
i will build, i will fight, i will pray
i will walk, i will knock, i will write, i will love, i will hate, i will hope
if that’s what it’s gon’ take
i am what happens when a german girl resisting the n-z-s
comes together with the blood of a slave
i got a thousand generations of spirits inside me
that say there ain’t no such thing as fate

[guante]
all the good ones and the bad ones:
i bring my ancestors with me
whether ancestor by blood or bibliography
i ain’t no senator’s son
more like the sun setting on the old world we gotta leave
i bring my grandchildren with me
whether grandchildren by blood or water rippling
i ain’t no millionaire’s son
i just see a million paths to victory, choose one
