letra de taboo - hmak

[intro: nina simone sample]

everybody is half dead, everybody avoids everybody…
all over the place in most situations most all the time
i know i am one of those everybodies and to me it is terrible
and so all i’m trying to do all the time is just to open people up
so they can feel themselves and let themselves be open to somebody else

that is all, that’s it

[verse 1: hmak]

well i ain’t really felt like myself for a long time
i crossed that line, it should have cost my life
i crossed that line, left my mind on the other side
and now i’m stuck trynna figure out how i’m going to find it
king in an empty kingdom, chained to what he believes in
palace becomes a prison, forever yearning for freedom…
broken thoughts, never a moment of peace
just an average white man, i’m trynna pick up the pieces!
look into my eyes and you’ll see that i ain’t the same
i’m somewhere stuck in between innovative and insane
took off on a high cause i was trynna escape it
crash landed and realized i ain’t escape sh-t!

smoke finally fades, oh whoa…
and i just found myself so all alone

well i know, i know… i know the truth
they gon’ try to keep it on the low
keep it all taboo
cause i know, i know, i know that i’m strong enough to prove it…
so search your soul tonight ignite the spark of revolution!

[instrumental]

[verse 2: hmak]

well welcome to america, this here is olney, maryland
where if you rock a fitted, police will stop and har-ss you
a taboo caste system where all anybody has is inheritance from their parents inherited by their parents!
kids out here all spoiled rotten
i can’t even stand it just to be around ’em!
she said “daddy i need a car!” so he went out and bought it
then she pouted bout how she ain’t get the one that she wanted?!
and these folks really wanna look down on us
and cut somebody bonus to afford a summer home
that you buying just for a year, just to flip it back on the market
while somebody who working hard is workin’ harder survivin’…
what’s up mister big, rich, white motherf-cker?
why you in the mansion and i’m in the suburbs?
why you livin’ high cl-ss while we out in the gutter
and how long did you think you could keep me under?
you ain’t got it hard enough, your money bags too soft
and if you ain’t had a problem you just p-ssed mak off…
so if anybody asks you can tell the upper-cl-ss
they can kiss my upper -ss where my pants sag off!
yeah, i had it up to here and i ain’t hearin’ a truce
said i’m blowin’ up your cover, had it with this taboo sh-t!
wonderbread versus whitey, these honky’s callin’ me judas
i’m doin’ it with the music, startin’ a revolution!

[chorus: hmak}

i know, you know, we know…
we can speak the truth
they gon’ try to hide it, wanna keep it all taboo…
they gon’ make us problems, well we’ll make problems too then
speak the word, salute. yeah i’m talkin’ revolution!

[outro: hmak]

so if you can dream, and not make dreams your master
if you can think and not make thoughts your aim
you can meet with triumph and disaster
and treat those two impostors just the same…
if you can keep your head when all about you
are losing theirs and blaming it on you…
if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
but make allowance for their doubting too…

[sample: nina simone]

i’ve always thought that i was shaking people up, but now i want to go at it more…
and i want to go at it more deliberately
and i want to go at it coldly!
i want to shake people up so bad, that when they leave a nightclub where i’ve performed
well i just want them to be to pieces!
i want to go in that den, with those elegant people and their old ideas
their smugness, and just drive them insane…
