letra de why imma give thanks? - rebel diaz
[intro + chorus, interpolated 1: dave mason]
give me reasons for giving
give me reason to take
give me reasons for giving
give me reason to take
no surrender, no retreat
no more
no more
no more, no no no
no surrender, no more
no surrender, no more
no surrender, no more
[verse 1]
why i’ma give thanks, huh?
why i’ma give thanks, huh?
’cause they shoot us with blanks, huh?
’cause they blankets was laced, huh?
why i’ma give thanks while they continue to rape us, huh?
f-ck spain, ’cause we native
f-ck pilgrims, they rapists
f-ck schools that erased us
f-ck trump and his racists
#nodapl is real, someone gon’ get k!lled
sh-t we all gon’ pay that bill if that pipeline gets built
water is life, that’s right, and oil don’t mix
that’s death, contaminate them veins
that circulate rivers to the them lakes
y’all say “i wanna drill,” baby, drill
y’all wanna k!ll, go and k!ll
but please do it to y’allselves
don’t make us live in your h-ll
don’t take humanity with you
some of us see that bigger picture
if we’re gonna fix it, gotta fix us
be one with nature, give thanks to that creator
water protectors that taught us water protects us
[?] expect us
[chorus 1: dave mason]
give me reasons for giving
give me reason to take
give me reasons for giving
give me reason to take
[verse 2]
why i’m gon’ give thanks, joe?
what i’m gon’ give thanks fo’?
they the ones that k!lled, they the ones that stealed
that’s why they playful
they don’t care about you, they don’t care about us
they don’t ever show love to the crew
they are the rich, the owners of the world
and they don’t ever look like me and you
they don’t care about love, they don’t care about family
they don’t care about none of that
they are the greedy that stole the land
these are the people that took the land
we are the ones that’s taking it back
we are the poor, the working cl-ss
hidin’ the stash, under the mattress
i can survive and i could give cl-sses
what you gon’ do when a dollar is nothing?
and my rebels got y’all buddies
what you gon’ do when those tanks explode
from the very oil they fighting for?
[?]
indigenous struggle all over the world
i’m giving thanks to the people i love
ones in the struggle that never give up
that never sellout, never stop spitting that truth when they shout
without a doubt
sending my love to my water protectors
this is a lesson from all the ancestors
i’m just a vessel, respect ya elders
standing rock to the south bronx
f-ck the army and f-ck the cops
[chorus 2: dave mason]
give me reasons for giving
give me reason to take
give me reasons for giving
give me reason to take
laying foundations for new generations, follow your dreams
laying foundations for new generations, follow your dreams
[verse 3]
[?]
pence prepared a registry, they want us all gone eventually
now it’s time for your holiday, h-ll
if yall could, y’all’d probably celebrate slavery
sh-t, that’s everyday basically
a system of domination, death and exploitation
murderous invasion, lie up on your tv stations
resist that way of life, or else we’ve lost that fight
i don’t want the power, we’ve got the power
don’t need their oversight
[?]
[?] who are you or who paid ya
won’t accept y’all bribes, y’all claims to come inside
this rage is just a fire, crusading is just a ride
this ceremony, this prayer, my fight in the lion’s lair
but the condor, the eagle, me circling in the air
stampede of buffalo, spirits got to know
we all involved, everybody play ball
sing our song, which side are you on?
[chorus 2: dave mason]
give me reasons for giving
give me reason to take
give me reasons for giving
give me reason to take
laying foundations for new generations, follow your dreams
laying foundations for new generations, follow your dreams
