Mos Def - America

gabar yaroo subhaano
maro shabeelo hirato
maro qafiifa huwato
maga'aaga ii sheeg
magaeygu waa sharaf
sharaf haaji weeyan
aqalada hariirta
dhina baan ka jooga
alla ya u sheega
tinta u shanleeya

nahoy zamzamey
sabaah nuurey
adoo kin kin iyo
kaluun badaneey
adoo hajka jira
xasuus badaneey
sahiibtaa asho ashaq baa dilay
ugu dambeyntiina
aniyo geeluba
wa u banaanbahnay

wanagii orodnee
nabad barinee
mareykan waa laga soo waayay
mareykan waa laga soo waayay
mareykan waa laga soor waayay

There are certain things fresh
And certain things mesh
I got my own sound
I don't sound like the rest
And even my attire
And my choice of dress
And not long ago
I don't spoke English

My point is police
Pull me over a lot
They wonder
What kind of rap sheet I got
And sometimes
I take a young girl out to eat
And hold the door open
Oh, your so sweet
Of course my affection's
Super illustrated

And I like to give don't reciprocate it
Unless you could give me
Someone innovated
Well let's cook it up
We don't refrigerate it
But back to the country
Of the educated
Where people get robbed
And they celebrate it

mareykan waa laga soo waayay

Maraken,
My country tis of thee
Sweet land for robberies
Dos smokin' SUV's
Grab me an army green

Fat and frills
Thrills and spills
Eat and sleep
Hump and kill
Shop 'til you drop
Work 'til you dead
Get all you can
Then get in the wear

Outta my face
On your knees
Sleep in the mansion
Shut out the streets
Make that cake
Woop that trick
Lick my swagger
Suck my sick Get high, get low
Get sticky, get rich
Get your own show
Get down, get quick
You slow, you blow
You broke your fix
Terror dome
Home swag home
Terror dome
Home swag home

Theree are somethings pure
While certain things blur
Dilute it with the lie
And you believe when it occur
Falsified information
Got my people in the stir
We have to be in searcch
Of something
Equal to the cure

Straight out the door
I come to give you more
Lay the law, keep it raw
When I speak it from the core
Get underneath your skin
Like especially with the claw
Conflicted with the rich
Cause I kick it with the poor

I laugh in the face of adversity
Sound clashed with the bass
Cause it's natural to me
But if you pay attention
To the past you will see
Not long ago you black
They'd hang your ass
From a tree

Certain things change
While some stay the same
Some are recluse
Others are lovers of the game
I'm trying to walk the lane
The siratul was the cane
They keep you covered
In the flame

wanagii orodnee
nabad barinee
mareykan waa laga soo waayay
mareykan waa laga soo waayay
mareykan waa laga soor waayay

wanagii orodnee
nabad barinee
mareykan waa laga soo waayay
mareykan waa laga soo waayay
mareykan waa laga soor waayay

Nanananana
That shit was cool in English
But let me get that Somali verse
