Michael X - Myke Towers

We are oppressed, we are exploited, we are downtrodden

We are denied not only civil rights, but even human rights

So the only way we’re going to get some of this oppression and exploitation

away from us or aside from us

Is come together against a common enemy

Yeh, soy parte del problema si esto' tema' no lo' saco

El pueblo se cansó ya del abuso policíaco

Humano a defender tus derechos yo te sonsaco

Aunque me discriminen, yo comoquiera resalto

Año 2020 y aún el racismo sigue

¿Cuando va a acabarse esto?

Solo Dios decide

Martin Luther King murió, su legado vive

Nací el mismo día que él, puede que mi música él vire

No hay raza a nivel social o preferencia que nos divida

Por mis ideale' yo doy la vida

Abusaron cuando eramo' esclavos, eso nunca se no' olvida

Que no falte la comida, la necesidad te obliga

Orgulloso de ser negro, la gente sabe cómo soy

Que en paz descanse George Floyd, ah

Toa' la' noches me arrodillo porque gracia' a Dio' estoy donde estoy

Si juegan sucio va a pasar como Indiana contra Detriot

Que en paz descanse El Black Mamba, estamo' en tiempo finale'

Me dejo llevar por la' señale' que el Señor manda

Puerto Rico se gobierna solo, sorry, Wanda

Yo mismito me encargo de hacer mi propaganda

Los Jordan' en el Last Dance, la base de fanáticos se agranda

Está hablando la pantera de Wakanda

Cuando uno se enfoca y progresa dicen que se cambia

Ojalá to' el que abuse del poder lo ataque el karma, jaja

Oh, oportunidad de empleo pa' los que salgan de preso'

Si no van a salir a lo mismo, cuenten con eso

Pienso que es tiempo de subirle el sueldo a lo' maestro'

Y a to lo' que al sistema de salud están envuelto'

No soy René, pero de P.R.

soy residente

Mi gente seriamente disculpen por lo siguiente

Quiero clavarme la hija o la mujer del presidente

Pa' que por mi culpa le gusten lo' negro' pa' siempre

Me dicen Michael X, represento a lo' ausente'

Esta cabrona cuarentena me tiene impaciente

'Toy sonando en tu canto y en la área adyacente

Al nivel mío hay que hablar, no puede el loco hacerte

Lo que siento, no lo puedo guardar

Ey, mi plataforma, estoy usándola pa' fomentar la igualdad

¿Qué va pasar?

Solamente Dio' sabrá

Si él te dijera escoger pa' entrar al cielo o al infierno, en serio,

¿a cuál va'?

Como digo una cosa, digo la otra

Guardia que haga su trabajo bien hay que hacer que se le reconozca

Pero el código sigue siendo el mismo, esta e' cosa nostra

En boca cerrada e' imposible que entren mosca'

Sin papele' cruzamo' frontera', entramo' por la costa

Pero a mi familia no le puede faltar la compra

Me tengo que arriesgar, no me importa si me deportan

No e' malo uno caer, el problema e' si no remontas

Ah, y pa' traerla en blanco y negro, al final somo' humano'

E' mejor que no' unamo'

Si la amistad fuera un barco puede ser que lo hundamo'

Dio', perdón por yo hacer dinero de lo mudano

Tú sabe' que no juzgamo'

A la hora 'e demostrar ellos saben que no jugamo'

Pero siguen pendiente a cuánto gano

Y cuando tumbaron la' Torre Gemela' yo estaba como en cuarto grado

Me entró malicia, dije: «Eso fue el gobierno, ¿a cuánto vamo'?»

Te dejo en bancarrota si tú apuesta' en mi contra

Hay que hacer que la' cadenas se rompan

Y a mí sin cojone' me tienen la fama ni que me reconozcan

Lo' premio' que no' otorgan, lo' rango' que no' colocan

Si caigo ustede' celebran, me gusta ver cómo se alegran

La' cara' linda' de mi gente negra

Yo siempre enseñaba la' mano' si tiraba piedra'

Y ahora cuando tiro un disco to’a la tierra tiembla

Ey, ya, ya, ya, ya

Lyke Mike comin' soon

We are oppressed, we are exploited, we are downtrodden

We are denied not only civil rights, but even human rights

So the only way we're going to get some of this oppression and exploitation

away from us or aside from us

Is come together against a common enemy

Yeh, I'm part of the problem if I don't take this out

The people are tired of police abuse

Human to defend your rights I draw you out

Even if they discriminate against me, I still stand out

Year 2020 and still racism continues

When is this going to end?

Only God decides

Martin Luther King died, his legacy lives on

I was born the same day as him, maybe my music he turns

There is no race at the social level or preference that divides us

For my ideals I give my life

They abused when we were slaves, that is never forgotten

Do not miss the food, the need forces you

Proud to be black, people know how I am

Rest in peace George Floyd, ah

All the nights I kneel down because thanks to Dio I am where I am

If they play dirty it's going to happen like Indiana against Detroit

May the Black Mamba rest in peace, we are 'in final time'

I let myself be carried away by the 'signal' that the Lord commands

Puerto Rico governs itself, sorry, Wanda

I myself am in charge of making my propaganda

The Jordans' at the Last Dance, the fan base gets bigger

This is the Wakanda panther speaking

When one focuses and progresses they say that it changes

I hope everyone who abuses power is attacked by karma, haha

Oh, job opportunity for those who get out of prison

If you're not going to go out the same, count on it

I think it's time to raise the salary of the 'teacher'

And to what' the health system is involved'

I'm not René, but from P.R.

I am a resident

My people seriously apologize for the following

I want to nail the president's daughter or wife

So that because of me they like the 'black' forever

They call me Michael X, I represent the 'absent'

This bitch quarantine has me impatient

'Toy playing on your song and in the adjacent area

At my level you have to talk, the crazy person can't make you

What I feel, I can't keep it

Hey, my platform, I'm using it to promote equality

What is going to happen?

Only God will know

If he told you to choose to enter heaven or hell, seriously,

which one are you going to?

As I say one thing, I say the other

Guard who does his job well, you have to make him be recognized

But the code remains the same, this is our thing

In a closed mouth it's impossible for flies to enter

Without papers we cross the border, we enter through the coast

But my family can not miss the purchase

I have to risk it, I don't care if they deport me

It's not bad to fall, the problem is if you don't come back

Oh, and to bring it in black and white, in the end we are human

It's better that we don't join

If friendship were a ship, it could be that we sink it'

Dio', sorry for me making money from the mudano

You know' that we don't judge'

At the time 'and show them they know that we don't play'

But they are still pending how much I earn

And when they knocked down the 'Twin Tower' I was like in fourth grade

Maliciousness entered me, I said: «That was the government, how far are we going?»

I leave you bankrupt if you bet 'against me

You have to make the' chains break

And they don't have fame for me without being recognized

The 'prize' that they do not grant, the rank that they do not place

If I fall you' celebrate, I like to see how they rejoice

The 'pretty' face of my black people

I always showed my hand if I threw a stone

And now when I throw a record the whole earth trembles

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Lyke Mike comin' soon
