letra de angklung - subhas

[fauxe]
we’ve come far from the kampungs
but i still hear the angklungs
every-time i sit
and listen closely
put your ears to the ground and
listen to the roots and the sound of
you are where you are supposed to be

i will forever reign
subhas – the name on every grain
the past, my calendar carry pain
some things my cadaver will explain
on god, my kaṭavuḷ unattained
we sent prayers as novacane
washed the blind faith, hurricane
we triеd, we knocked but no one camе
our beards a power you can’t explain
so fly this brown man spitting game
but still, airport, we get detained
my brownness not to entertain
my sound, my voice, you won’t contain
this flesh eventually ash and flames
when we all die, what remains?
i am the evidence
i am the remnants
i stay irreverent
in face of arrogance
cut off some sibilance
but never my siblings
you and i synonyms –
together sin and win
the real politics you and me
and our radical communities
between us lie mutualities
so we call each other family and say we got you
makan, we got you
a roof over your head, we got you
whatever you need, we got you
you get me? we got you

maybe you can call me bit tired
of fighting the whole thing
but i can’t just keep quiet
hear my soul sing
every time i sit and listen closely
(you get me? we got you.)

put your ears to the ground and
listen to the roots and the sound of
you are where you are supposed to be

stop trying, i’m dying
my mind supplying
these rhymes and riddles no imda complying
post it, or roast it, ghost it – toast it
doubt it, shout it, flout it, write about it
i’ll be long gone before they ever deciph-it
every album i drop i am closer to my passage
the cypher continues, the fight for fair profit
so don’t carry my casket – just carry my message
coasting through life like a roller coaster
sitting and staring at jordan posters
pushing my 30s as i get older
wishing my mom and me were closer
life is a series of complications
life is a series of complex questions
life gon’ have you grow up fast
who’s life on the line, who’s telling you that?
life gone remind you of your mortality
life don’t give time for neutrality
what is life lived with no regrets?
as long as breath in our body, we got to try
so we rise
