Music Something I want to share with you people...

[Trece the Xam ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) 3,859]

OK, so I've decided to post a song I often listen to and I think it's got a good message that I would like to share with you. Unfortunally, the song's lyrics are in Spanish so most of you won't understand them, but I'll translate them and leave them in a spoiler tag so you can check them, however they will lack rythm and rhymes.

 

 

 

The lyrics aren't too clear, it's not easy to translate a song I've put between () some things to make it easier to understand. The song is fairly long, so forgive me if there's any spelling/gramar mistake

 

I would like to hear your thought sabout this song.

 

Lyrics (English):

MC: EL CHOJIN

 

The happiness felt when we're together,

it's partly lost when you think of the reason, 

we're all different with our ways and style, 

but it's Hip-Hop, and it must be left clear.

 

MC: LÍRIKO

Have you ever stopped to speak with yourself?
Life can be a different colour if you talk about racism,
I'm not here to tell you a speech about Human Rights,
neither am I here to speak to you about Romans stories.
It's the lucidity opposed to the stupidity that exists,
I wonder where the joke starts and ends,
good tale told to the peddler, who's another worker
with a family and a future ahead.

MC: EL SANTO

Each one of us is unique in their own species,
there's no motive or reason for it to be despised,
it's the fear to the evenness and to disregard the different (things).
We're separated by a permanent and absurd social class:
the biggest hatred because of the smallest reason
there's no colour, no comparison,
just another episode where the most intolerant fascism
isn't healed reading, neither is the racism travelling

MC: EL LANGUI

No matter how many songs we make,
no matter how much we demonstrate,
no matter how many victims suffer,
they don't fall through the land,
we do not get aware, and that's how things end up,
and this is how it's written in article number one:
"we're born free, and even in rights and dignity",
then why is it so hard to carry it out of the paper?

MC: KASE.O

Tall, short, ugly, good-looking, black, white, does it matter?
We'll all be bald and under gorund in one hundred years from now, right?
Have you never tried to meet/get to know a foreigner?
Look at the kids, they know what this is all about,
the human race is a crucible,
whoever can't see beauty in this doesn't deserve to look at the sun,
my partner takes over, for this new world
it's the triumph of love against fear.

MC: NACH

When the racist beast feels rage and death,
when the phobia spreads and steams, acusing you from not been the same,
when in a global world
looking for food turnes you into an illegal person,
when the law of foreigns traps you without reason
and hipocresy covers it's eyes and ears,
racism and marginalization, when they only see the skin
and forget about the heart.

LOCUS

No one asks you to save the world from its pain,
we've all lost hope in a better world,

life is so cruel and scoundrel that I understand (you),
sometimes being honest/righteous is like pissing against the wind,
but don't look at the colour of my skin
if what you really want to know is the colour of my notes (refering to money)
earthquakes, huricanes, war, starvation,
racism is in the human's pocket.

MC: OSE

Breath this whole breeze (this verse is just to make a rhyme),
put yourslef on another one's situation, let's see how long you keep your smile,
show respect to the different ones due to gender, ideology or culture,
so that affection and sensitivity surrond the structure,
because with intolerance you show deficit in brain and heart,
today I share my voice and love against the wrong (ideas) and pain
and lack of inteligence and comunication.

MC: NERVIOZZO

You're not racist, dude, you're a fool
because of your racist parents you're tame!
Countries stopped existing yars ago,
the broder is in each one of us' skin!
All of our grandchildren will be gray!
How do you want people to remember you? Like that one who said that
hated black people, but hid in case they bit?
Coward with no attitude! If you ever face your demons
you'll see that they're white like you!

MC: SHO-HAI

Why the firetruck do you look at him like that?
If then you're the first one to buy pirated DVDs from him?
I wish for friendship between races,

hard to achieve in this firetrucking world packed with rats!
No human can be illegal,
What's illegal is that some human beings have no dignity.
I support the black (person), the Chinese (person), the arabic (person), even the martian,
on my side welcome to my land, brother.

MC: ZATU

Getting pass my 30s,
I wrote the one for the children,
this one goes to the dad
that shouts strong language a sunday at the pub
whe the black guy he admires can't score.
The match is lost from the begining,
the side effect is that your son is a social problem,
the future is that your daughter asks you for money to go to the cinema
and goes with the son of the guy who sold Kleenex to you. (In the south of Spain you get black people selling tissues to earn enough money to move to another place, that'swhat this last verse refers to)

MC: GITANO ANTÓN

Diffused reality, doind what must be done,
did you see who I am? Tell me who you are,
getting payed in papers, denying  the pleasures
of men and woman, heroes from such challenge,

to fight for their own love
so their children fon't grow up empty (with no food)
new generation with principles,
teaching good educationdan with no prejudices.

MC: EL TITÓ

When pain covers the chest, 
a heart can stand all that it takes,
but depending on the facts
I fight for something better, for rights
and the words are taken by the wind, (this is a verse used in several songs, it doesn't have any special meaning in this song)
but not these! between oceans there'sa  reason

and a cause that has dragged tears for centuries,
I only focus on the person
judge yourself before judging anyone else.

MC: XHELAZZ

No, it's not the tone of skin what matters,
it's the tone in which you express yourself, racists complain,
the foreigner takes his hours at work, (in Spain there's this racist idea of blaming the foreigners because they take our jobs)
more hours are taken by the console, and it's Japanese.
Pay attention fighting for freedom
is more than hating the oppressor,
I ask for understanding, as bread is split up with the hands, 
but it's handed over with the heart.

MC: CHOJIN

On the one hand I feel sad that this is necessary
but on the other one I'm glad to hear my partners,
I can't think of a message more simple, logical, obvious or serious:
the problem comes when it isn't seen, 
and it stays if it's denied.
I guess I don't even have to say,
It's clear isn't it? Rap is against Racism.

 

 

Lyrics (Spanish):

 

 

MC: EL CHOJIN

 

El subidón de estar todos unidos

se pierde un poco cuando piensas en el motivo,

todos distintos con su rollo y su estilo,

pero es Hip-Hop, y hay que dejarlo bien clarito.

 

MC: LÍRIKO

¿Te has parado alguna vez ha hablar contigo mismo?
La vida puede ser de otro color si se habla de racismo,
no vengo a dar un discurso de derechos humanos,
ni vengo a contaros una de romanos.
Es la lucided frente a la estupidez que existe,
yo me pregunto donde empieza y donde acaba el chiste,
buen desplante al vendedor ambulante que es otro currante
con familia y un futuro por delante.

MC: EL SANTO

Cada uno es único en su especie,
no hay motivo ni razón para que se desprecie,
es el temor a la igualdad y a ignorar lo diferente.
Nos separa una absurda clase social permanente:
máximo odio por la mínima razón,
no hay color, no hay comparación,
tan solo otro episodio donde el mas intolerante fascismo
no se cura leyendo y el racismo viajando tampoco.

MC: EL LANGUI

Por muchas canciones que hagamos,
por mucho que nos manifestemos,
por muchas víctimas que sufran
no caigan a lo largo del terreno
no nos concienciamos y así nos va,
y en el articulo número uno escrito esta
nacemos libres e iguales en derecho y dignidad
a ver ¿porque es tan difícil llevarlo acabo fuera del papel?

MC: KASE.O

Alto, bajo, feo, guapo, negro, blanco, ¿qué más da?
dentro de cien años todos calvo bajo tierra, ¿va?
¿no has probado nunca conocer a un extranjero?
Fíjate en los niños ellos saben de qué va este juego,
y es que la raza humana es un crisol,
el que no pueda ver belleza en esto no merece ver el sol
paso el relevo al compañero, para este mundo nuevo
es el triunfo del amor contra el miedo.

MC: NACH

Cuando la bestia racista siente rabia y muerte,
cuando la fobia se contagia y hierve acusándote de no ser igual,
cuando en un mundo global
el buscar comida en otra tierra te convierte en ilegal,
cuando la ley de extranjería te atrapa sin motivo
y la hipocresía tapa sus ojos y sus oídos,
racismo y marginación, cuando sólo ven la piel
y se olvidan de mirar al corazón.

MC: LOCUS

Nadie te pide que salves el mundo de su dolor,
todos perdimos la fe en un futuro mejor,
esta vida es tan cruel y tan canalla que lo entiendo,
a veces ser honrado es como mear contra el viento
pero no mires el color de mi piel
si realmente quieres ver el color de mis billetes,
terremotos, huracanes, guerras, hambre
el racismo esta en los bolsillos del hombre.

MC: OSE

Respira del todo esta brisa
ponte en la piel del otro a ver cuanto dura tu sonrisa
mostrar respeto al desigual por sexo, ideología o cultura
para que afecto y sensibilidad rodeen la estructura
porque con intolerancia muestras déficit en cerebro y corazón,
hoy comparto mi voz y mi amor contra la sinrazón y el dolor
y la falta de inteligencia y comunicación.

MC: NERVIOZZO

¡Tú no eres racista, tío eres imbécil
por culpa de unos padres ignorantes eres dócil
hace ya muchos años que no existen los países,
la frontera esta en la piel de cada uno
y todos nuestros nietos serán grises!
¿Cómo quieres que te recuerde, como aquel que decía que
odiaba negros pero se escondía por si muerden?
¡Cobarde sin actitud, si algún día te enfrentas a tus demonios
verás que son blancos como tú!

MC: SHO-HAI

¿Por qué coño le miras con esa cara,
si luego tu eres el primero en comprarle DVDs piratas?
Apoco por la amistad de las razas,

difícil en este puto mundo intolerante de ratas.
Ningún ser humano puede ser ilegal,
lo ilegal es que un ser humano no tenga dignidad,
yo apoyo al negro, al chino, al árabe incluso al marciano,
por mi parte bienvenido a mi tierra, hermano.

MC: ZATU

Superando al treintena de edad,
me escribí la de los niños,
esta va por el papá
que lanza insultos un domingo en el bar
cuando el negro al que idolatra no consigue marcar.
El partido esta perdido al entrar,
el efecto secundario es que tu hijo sea un problema social,
el futuro es que tu hija exija dinero para el cine
y se vaya con el hijo del que te vendía Kleenex.

MC: GITANO ANTÓN

Realidad difusa haciendo menesteres,
¿viste quien soy yo? Dime tú quien eres,
cobrando en papeles denegando los placeres
de hombres y mujeres, héroes de tal desafío

de luchar por su amor propio
para que sus hijos no crezcan vacíos,
nueva generación con principios
dando una buena educación sin prejuicios.

MC: EL TITÓ

Cuando el dolor cobre el pecho,
un corazón aguanta lo que le echen
pero dependiendo de los hechos
lucho por algo mejor, por derechos
y las palabras se las lleva el viento,
¡estas no!, entre océanos hay una razón

y una causa que arrastra lagrimas desde hace siglos,
yo sólo me fijo en la persona
auto-júzgate antes de juzgar a cualquier otro.

MC: XHELAZZ

No, no es el tono de la piel lo que interesa,
es el tono con el que te expresas, racistas se quejan,
el extranjero les quita horas en la empresa,
mas horas les quita la consola y es japonesa.
Pon atención luchar por la libertad
es algo mas que odiar al opresor,
pido comprensión, pues el pan se parte con las manos
pero se reparte con el corazón.

MC: CHOJIN

Por un lado me apena que sea necesario esto
por otro me alegra oír a mis compañeros,
no se me ocurre un mensaje más tonto, ni más lógico, ni más obvio, ni más serio:
el problema viene cuando no ven el problema,
y el problema se queda cuando lo niegan.
Supongo que no hacía falta ni decirlo,
les queda claro ¿no? el Rap está contra el Racismo

 

 

 

EDIT: I forgot to say that this was the song that introduced me to Rap

Edited January 22, 2016 by Xamtehwt MC (Trece)

[Felixx 6,646]

I read the lyrics first before I listened to the song, otherwise it would have been too confusing

The message of this song is AMAZING!! Whoever wrote this song: well done! Seriously, it's sad that racism is still such a big problem in this world   I hope that one day in the future it won't be anymore.

Great song man, thanks for sharing!

[The Transcendent Key 12,109]

Wow, I gotta say that this was an amazing rap video!  It provided a morally good message about eliminating racism and accepting people, regardless of skin color! It's deplorable to think that racism is still such a big problem worldwide, and it sickens me how there are people that downright hate others that aren't their skin color! I find that to be disgusting, because no person should be judged by the color of their skin!  But, sadly, not everyone thinks the same way, hence, the reason why there are still so many racists out there!

 

But, as long as we carry our values and principles with us and treat everyone equally, it'll all be okay!

 

And you know, this is the first time I've ever seen a music video with rappers from Spain!  That's pretty cool! (Y si, yo hablo espanol, por si no lo sabias! )
