Ye who read these words are still among the living, but I who write shall have long since gone my way into the region of shadows. Plagued by ghosts from the past, my soul can find no release from its eternal sorrow. Lost loves, spirits of the dead… madmen and devils have each in turn visited me here in the solitude of my chamber, to haunt and torment me. I implore you to heed my tale, as I relate the grim and ghastly things that befell me in my darkest hour… once upon a midnight dreary…
Come, come,
here into my arms
fall to a knee,
to my pseudo-charms.
a rún is ainm dom
The day is ours, this I know,
love and lust, not flowers,
are the seeds we’ll sow
Onto the morrow
and many new morns,
and lanced shall be flesh
by concupiscent thorns.
a rún is ainm dom
and lanced shall be flesh
by concupiscent thorns
Come, come,
the sun, over us,
burns its lovers glow
and the grass projects
passions shadow below.
a rún is ainm dom
follow me to see your golden dawn
The day is ours, this I know,
love and lust, not flowers,
are the seeds we’ll sow
Onto the morrow
and many new morns,
and lanced shall be flesh
by concupiscent thorns.
and lanced shall be flesh
by concupiscent thorns
Onto the morrow
follow me to see your golden dawn
and many new morns
Welcome children, gather 'round
To heed grim tales of whispered lore—
As twilight falls, dark shadows rise
To haunt the night for evermore—
For ghastly things lurk in the dim
Beneath the shadows of your bed—
Waiting till you drift asleep
To fill your dreams with mortal dread—
Mi avvicinavo tranquillamente
Finta di niente…, ma che rabbia mi fa
Non so ballare é la verità
Allora ho scelto decisamente
In mezzo alla gente…che piacere mi fa
Poterti urlare la mia verità
PARLAMI STRAPPAMI DAL PENSIERO L’ UOMO NERO
PARLAMI SPOGLIAMI DAMMI ANCORA DESIDERIO
Cambia la luce sono innocente
Che bella festa!!! ma il grido: ‘speranza’
Diventa un urlo diventa MATTANZA
Fine delle danze / stendono un velo
Uccelli neri / calano dal cielo
É un castigo un sortilegio
Danza di streghe sacrilegio
Code di rospo / ali pipistrello
Sangue di toro su capelli d’ oro
13 lune / capelli rossi
Ballano le streghe / saltano i fossi
PARLAMI STRAPPAMI DAL PENSIERO L’ UOMO NERO
PARLAMI SPOGLIAMI DAMMI ANCORA DESIDERIO
AMAMI STRINGIMI SOLE CALDO E SINCERO
AMAMI STRINGIMI
PARLAMI STRAPPAMI
RIEMPI GLI OCCHI DI MISTERO
AMAMI STRINGIMI SOLE CALDO E SINCERO
Les yeux battus la mine triste
Et les joues blêmes
Tu ne dors plus
Tu n'es plus que l'ombre de toi-même
Seul dans la rue tu rôdes comme une âme en peine
Et tous les soirs sous sa fenêtre
On peut te voir
Curre 'mbraccio addu mamma,,(Bambino bambino)
Nun fa 'o scemo picceri'……(Guaglio Guaglio)
Dille tutta verita
(Bambino bambino)
Ca mamma te pò capi…
Et gratte, gratte sur ta mandoline
Mon petit Bambino
Ta musique est plus jolie
Que tout le ciel de l'Italie
Et canta, canta de ta voix câline
Mon petit Bambino
Tu peux chanter tant que tu veux
Elle ne te prend pas au sérieux
Tu peux fumer comme un Monsieur des cigarettes
Te déhancher sur le trottoir quand tu la guettes
Tu peux pencher sur ton oreille, ta casquette
Ce n'est pas ça, qui dans son coeur, te vieillira
Curre 'mbraccio addu mamma, (Bambino bambino)
Nun fa 'o scemo picceri'…(Guaglio Guaglio)
Dille tutta verita
(Bambino bambino)
Ca mamma te pò capi…
Et gratte, gratte sur ta mandoline mon petit Bambino
Ta musique est plus jolie
Que tout le ciel de l'Italie
Et canta, canta de ta voix câline
Mon petit Bambino
Tu peux chanter tant que tu veux
Elle ne te prend pas au sérieux
Si tu as trop de tourments.. (Bambino bambino)
Ne les garde pas pour toi (Guaglio Guaglio)
Va le dire à ta maman (Bambino bambino)
Les mamans c'est fait pour ça
Et là, blotti dans l'ombre douce de ses bras
Pleure un bon coup et ton chagrin s'envolera
Curre 'mbraccio addu mamma
Nun fa 'o scemo picceri'…
Dille tutta verita
Ca mamma te pò capi…
Bambino, mi raccomando, non fai come faccio io, te lo dice zio Tonino
Bambinooooooo
Mi raccomando Guaglio

Je me sers de mes galères pour transmettre de l’espoir
Je regarde mon miroir, est-ce moi ?
Miraculé, mon cœur est immaculé
Mon rap répand les cendres de cette vie que j’adulais
Je mène cette vie nouvelle, sans nouvelle allure
Intérieurement J’ai fait du Christ mon Cordula pour mon salut
Depuis je vis et dis des choses incroyables
Je prêche l’amour au milieu de l’effroyable
Raisonnement contraire à celui de l’énarque
Je veux juste partager ce que j’ai reçu
Qu’on sente la charité dans chacune de mes mesures
Et qu’elle ne faillisse pas quand les gros billets débarquent
Aucune prétention dans c’que j’raconte
Mes pleurs m’ont plus forgé plus que la fonte
Pas de développé-couché, couché j’me suis développé
Mes cicatrices font la grandeur de mon épopée
Parfois j’regarde mon miroir et j’me reconnais
Tellement j’retombe dans ces passions viles auxquelles je m’adonnais
La culpabilité en profite pour mieux me cogner
A l’image du ciel je devrais apprendre à me pardonner
Hanté par des pensées suicidaires
Que mes imperfections ont suscités
Malgré ça je me rappelle du Christ et de La Passion
Que Dieu est amour et non ségrégation
J’essaie de faire de même mais malgré moi je méprise
De certaines amitiés je n’vois plus que des débris
Souvent trop bordélique du temps je n’ai aucune maîtrise
De leur amour je me réjouis autant que j’en déprime
C’est le cœur joyeux que je raconte ma mélancolie
J’me dis béni dans la douleur, pris dans un élan d’folie
Je relativise car je sais qu’il y a pire
Joyeux dans l’épreuve car c’est une nouvelle leçon d’apprise
Ça change de ces discours victimaires
Omniprésents dans c’game vendeurs de chimères
Fervent au milieu des rationalistes
J’suis comme un insoumis au milieu des nationalistes
J’me fous de faire la diff’, car ils disent tous faire la diff’
Mais l’amour des projecteurs les poussent à produire d’manière hâtive
Je me distingue des rappeurs et des homologues d’Hortefeux
Car j’aspire à conquérir les cœurs avant les portefeuilles
Overdose de réflexion pour ce projet
Parfois j’ai vu mon inspi décrocher
Et si je rappe ici, c’est pour être cette missive
Contenant des mots d’amours dans un jeu glorifiant les missiles
C’est ma mission, j’me sens envoyé comme Joséphine
Dieu me relève quand je faiblis face au défi
Ça prendra le temps qu’il faudra pour émerger
J’irai au bout d’mes rêves comme Michel Berger
Outro :
J’me battrai pour respecter les règles
Pour que l’ange déchu ne reviennent plus prendre les reines
J’me battrai pour respecter les règles
Pour que l’ange déchu ne reviennent plus prendre les reines
J’me battrai pour respecter les règles
Pour que l’ange déchu ne reviennent plus prendre les reines
Le Bon Combat
Hear the train whistle blow rolling down the line
Come to rescue this heart of mine
Hear the rumble and roar of the moonlight express
Our one last chance at a better world than this
(All aboard)
A better world than this
(All aboard)
Every traveler sat silent as a stone
A lot like but not quite flesh and bone
Yet I would not be dulled or driven to fright
By a train of the lost souls in the half light
Then a voice
From a hooded robe
Of black
Whispered, "Pale to me, here we go
There ain’t no
Turning back"
"All aboard", cried the train guy
Make ready for your magic mountain ride
Say goodbye to the world down below us
Here’s your one-way ticket to the other side
All aboard, the ghost train
Drop all your trappings at the door
Wave goodbye to the boy in the window
You won’t be seeing him anymore
Whoa, oh, whoa, whoa
Like a bat outta hell we shot into space
While down below in the blue-green glow, I saw a weeping face
It was the face of a child that cut me to the bone
And I heard him say, "Don’t go away, a-papa please come home"
Had no clue
As to who was crying
In the dark
But it hurt so bad
That I certainly had
A change of heart
"All aboard", cried the train guy
Make ready for your magic mountain ride
Say goodbye to the world down below us
Here’s your one-way ticket to the other side
All aboard, the ghost train
Drop all your trappings at the door
Wave goodbye to the boy in the window
You won’t be seeing him anymore
(All aboard)
Oh no no
(All aboard)
Oh no no, whoa, whoa
And so I left off the train, fell into my skin
Through mountains of Peru back to the land of the living
To a cottage in the woods into the arms of a woman
Who held my head to her belly and a-said, "We’re gonna have a son"
(We’re gonna have son)
Mmh, we’re gonna have son
(We’re gonna have son)
All aboard
All aboard
All aboard
The ghost train
Because I’m talking with the person who gave us the A and B Game, Blue Church, Jordan Hall, and part of that is this idea which is a religion that’s not a religion and coming – trying to come up with a post religious faith
Because here is the idea, this is probably in some ways my most radical idea
I wanna do what like Augustine did as the Roman Empire is falling
He laid the foundation
He laid the cultural cognitive grammar for an entirely different culture and they stole the culture bottom-up
He laid the cultural cognitive grammar for an entirely different culture and they stole the culture bottom-up
[Chorus]
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
And do everything I can
(And I can)
Do everything I can
(And I can)
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
From the imperial system
The imperial system at some point then clamped down again
But nevertheless, we shifted
We shifted out of antiquity
We shifted to a different world
So I want to try and do that
I want to try and create that systems of meaning, the religion that is not a religion, the ecologies of practices, the communities, the networks of communities
All of this, it’s already happening
We really empower it both in terms of its grammar
Give it the best scientific tools for engineering the practices and the ecology of practices
I basically wanna steal the culture
[Chorus]
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
And do everything I can
(And I can)
Do everything I can
(And I can)
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
From the people who have been abusing us for such a very long time
And I usually don’t speak politically ’cause I think the political framing is often a deep misrepresentation of the issue
At least the way in which political discourse has been sort of been ossified, sort of been ossified in ways make choice, no longer really relevant
And you know Christianity stole the culture away from the elites, it’s time
Now new elites form, they always will but the culture changed and it changed in an important way and that’s what I’m trying to do right now
That’s what I see myself doing with a lot of these other people
That’s what I’m trying to do right now
That’s what I see myself doing with a lot of these other people
[Chorus]
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
And do everything I can
(And I can)
Do everything I can
(And I can)
I wanna help steal the culture – away
Steal it away
Steal it away
[Bridge]
Steal it away, steal it away, steal it away
Now
Steal it away, steal it away, steal it away
Hey
Steal it away, steal it away, steal it away
Now
Steal it away, steal it away, steal it away
Hey
Steal it away, steal it away, steal it away
Now
Steal it away, steal it away, steal it away
Hey
Steal it away, steal it away, steal it away
Now
Steal it away, steal it away, steal it away
Hey
And the whole point about the metaphor is we can’t, we can’t win by playing the game (Their game)
That’s right
My way of trying to understand what it is to not play their game and to shift over to, into a totally different game
To shift the culture, it’s to steal the culture
The only thing I could get from history that’s been able to do that are religion
But for reasons I’ve articulated, I don’t want
And it’s not personally, I mean in terms of the functionality, I don’t think the standard model, the axial age model of religion is going to do what we need in order to steal the culture as deeply as we need to steal it
Things will never be the same
Ever since I lost my treasure
I’m tryna find the words
It feels like I’ve been cursed
And the days are going backwards
It’s getting worse
I can't help it
I wish I never felt this and
I’ve been tryna do things
To make it all better
But my heart ripped right out my chest
The day that you left it
You’re the only thing that’s only my mind right now
I’d search the seven seas to find your place right now
I never wanted it to end, oh no
I never wanna see the 17th again
Oh, No, Never
You see ever since I lost my treasure, Gold withers
X marks the spot of my heart that’s gone forever
I looked to the stars for an answer
The sun got blocked out shortly after
Where is God when I need him
Or when can I find Eve and Adam
Or the people to blame for all these evils
Loose devils that can touch one and pass their demons
These lights don’t shimmer
Crystal, ice, and chandeliers don’t even glimmer
In my eyes anymore
There is no xmas or no gifts to give us
More precious than the ones we lose unselfishly
Knowing it’s better for them than it is for me
But, honestly
I just miss the company
And I’ll be here to you come for me
To comfort me
Oh, come to me cuz
I never wanted it to end on no
I never wanna see the 17th again
Oh no never
You see ever since I lost my treasure Gold withers
X marks the spot of my heart that’s gone forever
X marks the spot of my heart that’s gone
Silver and Gold just don’t mean as much
If you can’t share it with the ones you love, no
Do you mind what happens not?
I don't care what happens
I don't care is
It's dismissive
It's a loving indifference, a benevolent indifference as Pontius used to say
It's not an indifference that is cold
Because awareness is not an aloof, separate witness of experience locked up in an ivory tower of indifference
It is intimately one with all experience, so intimacy is its loving aspect
It doesn't know the meaning of the word resistance or rejection so it is intimately one with
And at the same time free of all experience
So it is both loving
And indifferent
So it is both loving
And indifferent
So it is not a cold indifference
It is a loving indifference
[Chorus]
Loving indifference
We're speaking about awareness
Loving indifference
There is a meaning to the words true and false
Right and wrong
Loving indifference
We're speaking about awareness
Loving indifference
The qualities that are inherent in our true nature
We're speaking about awareness, awareness, awareness
We talk about mind
That's a different matter
Because mind's experience is always divided into polarities
Good and bad, right and wrong, true and false
And at the level of mind those categories are valid
They don't pertain to consciousness
Consciousness doesn't know the difference between good and bad, there is no good or bad or right or wrong
But when consciousness assumes the form of mind
It divides itself
Into two and at that level there are differences, there are distinctions, and there is a meaning to the words
[Chorus]
Loving indifference
We're speaking about awareness
Loving indifference
There is a meaning to the words true and false
Right and wrong
Loving indifference
We're speaking about awareness
Loving indifference
The qualities that are inherent in our true nature
So in terms of ethic
What is right and what is wrong
I would suggest what is right at the level of the mind is behavior that expresses
The qualities that are inherent in our true nature
Another name for awareness is love
So behavior that is loving is an expression of the inherent quality of our true nature
The inherent quality of our true nature
[Chorus]
Loving indifference
We're speaking about awareness
Loving indifference
There is a meaning to the words true and false
Right and wrong
Loving indifference
We're speaking about awareness
Loving indifference
The qualities that are inherent in our true nature
Cruel or unkind
Unjust, unloving behavior are behaviors that
Whilst they come originally from awareness, there's no else they could come from, they are filtered through the belief in separation and as they are filtered through separation they are perverted – or distorted
So hatred, for instance, is love distorted by the sense of separation
So hatred, for instance, is love more distorted by the sense of separation
Sogno americano
Bionda come il grano
Una vita fragile
Mary si mette il suo vestito
Come una fiamma
Come un bandito
La gente pensa male
Guarda che animale
Una preda facile
Mary ride nella parrucca
Sorda al tuono e alla sua bocca
Ha l' america in giardino
Ha l' america con se
Balla ancora marylin
Balla con la luna
Balla con il sole
Balla senza musica
Per la pioggia, per la tempesta
Per un sorriso da una finestra
La gente pensa male
Tu non sei normale
Hai smarrito l' anima
Mary cambia sesso ed eta'
Per un sogno di liberta'
E l' america e' un giardino
E l' america e' per te
Balla ancora marylin
(Grazie a pannamix per questo testo)
Vedo stelle soltanto se l’oroscopo è gentile ma mi sembra sera buona per comprare fiori da cortile. Gioco a mama nonmama, non sono di compagnia, chiedo alla nuova luna la luce per guardare il buio con fantasia
Dove corre la gente nella bocca del destino regalando la sua mente al potere più vicino…
Non so dove sto andando ma so che ci sto andando cammino contromano cieco e sordo al richiamo della voce del padrone, della pubblica opinione Non so dove sto andando ma so che ci sto andando ma so che ci sto andando
La mia pelle soltanto nelle braccia di un amore mai sbiadita in una divisa o in un campo a fare il girasole. Fermati viso bianco la storia ricorderà la mano che semina il grano, non quella dell’ avidità
Non so dove sto andando ma so che ci sto andando cammino contromano cieco e sordo al richiamo delle facili occasioni, delle pene, dei perdoni Non so dove sto andando ma so che ci sto andando non so dove sto andando ma so che ci sto andando ma so che ci sto andando
Bloodwitch
Make me itch
Make me come
Alive
From the dead
Come to say
Say my name
I was in the neighborhood
I’m hoping you don’t mind
My troubling you to grab a few possessions
I might have left behind
My kind of blue
We’d slow dance to
Back in the day
A hat, a pair of shades
Oh yeah and baby by the way
Won’t you gimme back my life?
Won’t you hand me my heart?
You know those few loose odds and ends
Like the earth, the moon and the stars
Won’t you give me back my world,
My sole reason to be?
Mind if I look around the place,
For the missing part of me?
Give me back those nights
Every kiss, every sigh
Just do that
And I will say goodbye
So sorry to intrude on you
Looking like such a mess
See, I packed my bags in such a rush
I forgot to pack my happiness
Won’t you gimme back my life?
Won’t you hand me my heart?
You know those few loose odds and ends
Like the earth, the moon and the stars
Won’t you give me back my world,
My sole reason to be?
Mind if I look around the place,
For the missing part of me?
Give me back all those nights
Every kiss, every sigh
Just do that
And I will say goodbye
I’ve been free to do whatever I want
To make the shows I want anywhere I want with whom I want
In any style I want
So I, at first I don’t know any other way
And by now I won’t have it any other way
Life is good
Why settle for less?
Be open to experience
Be willing to try new things
Don’t have a rigid plan except random acts of hospitality without judgment or fear
Don’t be afraid to wander
Don’t be afraid to eat a bad meal
You know, if you don’t risk the bad meal you’ll never get the magical one
But I think most important
[Chorus]
Be humble, bе grateful, be humble, bе grateful, be humble, be grateful
Be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful
Be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful
Be humble, be grateful
Before I started traveling I thought that the human race as a whole will turn on itself at any moment, you know, venal, petty, cruel, arbitrarian
And it’s true that all of those things exist in this world, but
I meet mostly pretty nice people
Doing the best they can, often under very, very difficult conditions
I met a lot of very nice people who’ve done very, very bad things that conflict with my deeply-held conceptions of justice and sexual equality or acceptable practice or religious views
There are a lot of gray areas in travel
But I think that on balance the world is filled with people doing the best they can, you know?
The best they can, you know?
[Chorus]
Be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful
Be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful
Be humble, be grateful, be humble, be grateful
I’ve been fired many times during my cooking career
I was not a particularly good chef
I had a lot of problems at various parts of my career with narcotics
You know, I accepted failure as a chef because I was at various times a bad chef
And even a bad person
These days if I fail it’s because I try to do something and did not succeed
Or I just was just was not able to do what I hoped to do or wanted to do
But I would much rather that
I would much rather fail gloriously than
Not try
I’m not interested in telling stories with competence
I’m looking at telling ’em with some style and originality and some creativity
Sean Paul is releasing a new album with a slew of dancehall artists on the guest list, a total of 15 collaborative singles.
The dancehall star announced that he will be dropping off one of two albums on March 12. The project titled Live N Livin will feature 20 veteran and relatively new artists who have no doubt left an impact on the dancehall arena. The 16-track album will have guest stars from Damian Jr. Gong Marley, Buju Banton, Serani, Mavado, and Busy Signal to Intence, Squash, Skillibeng, Masicka, Govana, and more.
Executively produced by Dutty Rock Productions, Live N Livin’ is distributed by ONErpm who is happy to work with the international dancehall sensation on a project of such relevance. “We are all excited at ONErpm to be partnering with Sean Paul and Dutty Rock for the release of this timely and well-curated album, ‘Live N Livin’. We look forward to assist in broadening the reach of dancehall globally” Martin Price, ONErpm’s Director of A&R for Africa and North America said in a statement.
Sean Paul often talks about how “clash culture” is more detrimental to the culture of dancehall music than we realize. Now, he seems intent on proving that by dropping one of the biggest features albums that we’ve seen from him yet.
Sean Paul Live N Livin album cover
“It was important to me to show that in our genre of dancehall, we don’t need to clash in order to attain the spotlight,” Sean Paul explained. “We don’t need to divide our fans to attain the rotations on the airwaves or streams. Over the years myself, Shaggy, and more recently Koffee, Shenseea and others are tapping into the world stage and we are not clashing our co-workers, nor are we dividing our fans. This album ‘Live N Livin’ is an album I hold very dear to my heart because it shows the effort of collaboration over confrontation.”
Sean Paul announced in January that he will be releasing two projects this year. The next album to follow will be Scorcher which will feature international acts like Sia, Gwen Stefani as well as women in dancehall like Shenseea and Jada Kingdom.

One of Bow Wow’s elaborate flexes ended miserably according to Maino.
Shad Moss simply cannot keep himself out of the media, and it seems there is always a bit of flexing attached to the story. His list of outlandish and sometimes completely fluffed claims has grown in stature, ultimately leading to even the most believable of acts from Moss being labeled as fake. A few weeks back, Bow Wow was ridiculed for packing nearly a dozen women into a tiny boat in Miami. The rapper/actor insisted that he was en route to a much larger yacht, but the explanation has not been sufficient for everyone.
In a separate incident some years ago, Bow Wow tried to trick fans into thinking he was flying private, only to be photographed at a window seat on a commercial flight.
Joe Budden / Maino
It seems there are a lot more Bow Wow stories tucked away, and Brooklyn rapper Maino decided to make one fly during a recent interview. Maino spoke with the crew on the Kitchen Talk podcast when he spoke of what happened after he and Bow Wow went partying in New York. According to the Brooklyn rapper, Moss requested that he walked out of the club with him that night.
“He like, ‘Yo, my car is around the corner,” Maino recounted. “We get around the corner and my car is parked right where I thought his driver was at — where he said his driver was at. So I seen a black truck. He’s like ‘My car’s right there.’ I’m like, ‘Cool.’ We standing there talking… I guess, like, maybe somebody was waiting for me to leave first or we just vibing. And then he’s like, ‘Yo, I’m out.’ And when he went to leave, I’m like, ‘Oh, he jumping in the truck.’ He went into the street and flagged down a taxi cab… I thought this was your driver?”

If the actor keeps up his act, such as the one he pulled during the Verzuz battle between Ashanti and his ex Keyshia Cole, we may just see a resurgence of the infamous Bow Wow challenge.
Cardi B says she’s not making the same mistake twice amidst 6ix9ine trolling her.
Tekashi 6ix9ine made a dramatic return to social media with his recent run-in with Meek Mill in Atlanta. While that in itself sparked enough conversation to accommodate a successful new single or video, the rapper is already on to the next one after releasing his song “Zaza,” which features a soundbite from the confrontation with Meek.
Taking to Instagram to start trolling his next victim, the controversial New York rapper alluded to Cardi B when he shared a poll on Instagram Stories asking, “If I took women to hotels, drugged them, and then robbed them, would I be canceled?”
6ix9ine was clearly taking a jab at the Hustlers star who once admitted to drugging and robbing men in her previous career. She seemingly addressed the shot Tekashi69 took at her with her own post on her Instagram Story. “I will never let NOBODY take advantage of me again!” Cardi B wrote. “The industry is weird but I won’t make the same mistake twice,” she added in a second post.
DJ Akademiks shared a screenshot of Cardi’s sentiments on his page, causing Tekashi 6ix9ine to react in the comments. “Bill Cosby went to jail… remember that boys,” the rapper wrote, suggesting that there is a gender double standard.
Tekashi 6ix9ine has made a whole career out of trolling, so the fact that he instigated this and is happily chiming in on the aftermath comes as no surprise. However, Cardi B is showing growth, and as she said, she learned from her mistake. It is probably wise of Cardi not to speak on the controversy again, and I think her PR team would agree.
Tekashi 6ix9ine being a professional troller, has become quite good at drawing people out, but he doesn’t seem to be getting the better of Cardi B so far. Do you think 6ix9ine will continue to troll the “Up” rapper?
[Good – Bye]
Oh how I’m so far away
I won't need to die today
I must go into? the sea
And carry you away with me
Oh I will hold your mouth in mine
Like I have time after time
Give you all breath real slowly
Take your heart beats silently
It will be mine no heart of mine
No more will taste of your kind
Sink in the cold absence
Lay you down for your decedent
This will be the darkest time
To see your body part from mine
Watch the water rest
Oh how time may will do that
[Good Bye]

The wild winds weep
and the night is a-cold;
Come hither, sleep,
and my griefs infold :
but lo ! The morning peeps
ove the eastern steeps,
and the rustling birds of dawn
the earth do scorn.
Lo ! To the vault
of paved heaven,
with sorrow fraught
my notes are driven :
they strike the ear of night,
make weep the eyes of day ;
They make mad the roaring winds,
and with tempests play.
Like a fiend in a cloud,
with howling woe,
after night I do crowd,
and with night will go;
I turn back to the easat,
from whence comforts have increa´d;
For light doth seize my brain with frantic pain.

So lanmou pou ou, mwen s’on idiot
Chans pou mwen, m’ vle genyen w’ comme kado
[Solo]
S’on ti lanmou ki très sexy
S’on ti lanmou ki pa easy
Paske m’ap viv nan Miami
Ou menm ou nan New-York City
Dènye fwa m’ wè w ou te en Haïti
En compagnie de tes amis
Epi yo di ke m’ twò piti
Tellement m’ fremi, mwen ta mouri
Y’on ti lanmou ki très sexy
Y’on ti lanmou ki pa easy
Paske m’ap viv nan Miami
Ou menm ou nan New-York City
Dènye fwa m’ wè w ou te en Haïti
En compagnie de tes amis
Epi yo di ke m’ twò piti
Tellement m’ fremi, mwen ta mouri
[Chorus]
Nobody’s perfect, Nobody
But love is (Nobody)
Mwen pwomèt ou doudou
Avè m’ pap gen kriz (Lavi m’ nan men w doudou)
You’ve been used, you’ve been played
You’ve been abused
Oooo, I came to take your pain away
Let this love begin today
Give me a chance, come take my hand baby
Let this love begin today
[Spoken lines]
Se maetro Brutus wi ki ta sipoze chante mizik sa
Yeah men se lavi l
Non non non kòm dabitud ban m bay nouvo talan pase
Wid chante sa pou mwen
[Verse 1]
Gen yon tablo ki paka repentire oh non non hmm
Gen yon imaj ou paka janmen chanje hmm hmm
Genyen wout ou paka retrase
Tout moun deja konn kote l kòmanse e ki kote lap rive iii
[Verse 2]
Gen yon rezime ke w paka edite
Taye yon bonè lòt chapo nan tèt li yo deja konnen se manti huumm umm
Of course you can fool some people, sometimes
Men se pa tout map ka pran nenpòt ki bagay
[Chorus]
Je m’appelle Jean Brutus j’ai pas un nom d’artiste
Have my head up, stay strong (He works hard, he’ll live on)
Se konsa yo rekonèt mwen, pa mete sou li pou mwen
[Verse 3]
You can take this spotlight, I’ll lay back
Stay on my feet pa janm kouri twò vit
Prend la vie comme elle vient (crois moi je me sens bien)
[Chorus]
Je m’appelle Jean Brutus j’ai pas un nom d’artiste
Have my head up, stay strong (He works hard, he’ll live on)
Se konsa yo rekonèt mwen, pa mete sou li pou mwen
Je fais la route en souriant
Y’a pas toujours le beau temps
Danser sous la pluie, le soleil Midi
Dieu le Saint Esprit, c’est lui qui benit
[Solo]
[Verse 4]
You can take this spotlight, I’ll lay back
Stay on my feet, pa janm kouri twò vit
Prend la vie comme elle vient (crois moi je me sens bien)
[Chorus]
Je m’appelle Jean Brutus j’ai pas un nom d’artiste
Have my head up stay strong (He works hard, he’ll live on)
Se konsa yo rekonèt mwen pa mete sou li pou mwen
Je fais la route en souriant, y’a pas toujours le beau temps
Danser sous la pluie, le soleil Midi
Dieu le Saint Esprit, c’est lui qui benit
[Verse 5]
Dèyè mwen yon katalòg ki vo plis ke kòb
Wout mwen pase, kisa mwen kite
Leson chak jou tout moun ap resite
Dèyè mwen yon katalòg ki vo plis kòb
Sa enpòtan pou mwen pase lajan
Bagay ki vini avèk le temps
Chanter mes refrains des melodies sans fin
Moi je fais du bien, ne regrette rien
Je suis bien un livre ouvert
Merci seigneur
[Solo]
Alè an menm bato
Zenglen
Je m’appelle Jean Brutus j’ai pas un
Nom d’artiste (pa mete sou li pou mwen)
Have my head up stay strong (He works hard, he’ll live on)
(Je suis un livre ouvert)
Se konsa yo rekonèt mwen pa mete sou li pou mwen (Merci seigneur)
Well it seems such a long time
Since our love had it’s day
You hope it knew the times I tried not let you slip away
Not always eye to eye looking at what’s new
You know it wont be easy, being without you
You have to go, is there something you must find?
Take one last look at love baby
Take one last look at the love we’re leaving behind
One last look, there’ll be no more making your mind up
One last look at love oh oh
I realise you’re changing
You know it needs to be
I didn’t know this trust in you would take your love from me
We gave each other something we outgrew yesterdayI hope that you remember, how love it was with me
You have to go, is there something you must find?
Take one last look at love baby
Take one last look at the love we’re leaving behind
One last look, there’ll be no more making your mind up
One last look at love
You have to go, is there something you must find?
Take one last look at loveTake one last look at the love we’re leaving behind
One last look, there’ll be no more making your mind up
One last look , one last look at love

Kreyòl
Lavi nou nan men Bondye!
[Chorus]
Mo fe re kofi awo
O ba lewa Erin O ba lewa atileba gan
Kreyol yi lewa yi gbona
O ba lewa Erin O ba lewa atileba gan
[Verse 1]
Yo di Kreyòl, tout sa ki cho
Yo di Kreyòl, mizik agogo
Se de beaux sourires
Resite bèl ti pwezi
Yon jèn fi mouye anba lapli
Un tableau qui n'a pas de prix
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Yo di Kreyòl, istwa nou pa diferan
Yo di Kreyòl, nou reyaji menm jan
Menm si nou pati ale n on lòt peyi
Au fond on reste les mêmes
Penser autrement c’est pas la peine
On vient de la Caraïbe, partage nos habitudes
Yon pla manje nou separe, yon sigarèt nou fimen l a de
[Bridge]
Yon tase kafe mèsi cheri
Bonjou lavi, on ti souri
Yon sigarèt, ban m alimèt
Nan manje a pa gen mèt
2-3 zanmi yon kout kleren
N aprann viv ak sa n genyen
Se vre culture nou melanje, men yon kote nou tout rankontre
[Hook]
Hey Kreyòl woy, lanmou c’est chaud
Hey Kreyòl woy, et puis c’est beau
Hey Kreyòl woy, Nati Congo
Hey Kreyòl woy, te quiero mucho
Papi mwen se Kreyòl nou ye rele anye
[Bridge]
Kreyòl pale an parabòl
Se mwen, se ou, anyen ki dwòl
Ou vini ban mwen 2 ti bo
Nou ka manje pandan li cho
Couleur café, c’est doux sucré
Ban m chokola nenpòt jan l ye
[Hook]
Kreyol chante, Kreyòl konprann
Rezilta pi rèd
Epi n ale
[Keyboard solo]
Zenglen anlè on menm bato
Ou rele m, karese m Miyonen m
Ban m sikre pou yo
[Bridge]
[Hook]
See the headlines
Have you heard the news
They’re tryin’ to turn the world upside down
We sit and watch it on TV
Programmed prophets trying to bring us down
Give us a break now
We know it can’t all be bad news
Let’s get away now
Cause when I’m holding on to you
We’re all, we’re all that really matters
The time is now
For taking our own chances
We’re all, all that really matters
More brain power
Just to keep alive
Some computer trying to shut you down
The world powers watchin’ the way you live
On a mission pushing us around
Give us a break now
No way we’re gonna lose
We’ll find a way now
Cause when I’m making love to you
We’re all, we’re all that really matters
The time is now
For taking our own chances
We’re all, all that really matters
I wanna love you
I’m gonna try to make it right
Nothing can touch you
We’ll make a dream come true tonight
We’re all, we’re all that really matters
The time is now
For taking our own chances
We’re all, all that really matters
We’re all, we’re all that really matters
We’re all, all that really matters
You won’t ever see me falling to my knees
I won’t live for something that I can’t see
Je te dis mille fois je t'aime

Sombrero d'occasione
Pelliccia di visone si
Trovano stranieri
Nella loro città
È stato solo un
Giorno e poi
Malinconia
Il tempo di un
Abbandono
E sei volata via
[Intro]
Ayoburr
Here we go
[Chorus: AKA]
Thinking to myself, what's the reason that I even started making music in the first place
Only thing I needed was some petrol money
Little mami and a fake gold chain
Do you ever look yourself inside a mirror?
God forgive me for my old mistake
Your holy spirit flowing in me like a river
Saint John
King James (Yebo)
Pro Kid (Yebo)
Lebron James (Yebo)
K. Forbes (Yebo)
Bruce Wayne (Yebo)
I got the jacket with the Michael Jackson zipper
Moonwalk
Champagne (Yebo)
[Verse 1: AKA]
Ekse!
It's time to look alive
f*ck a Insta-live
All of that drip in your closet, but you can't go outside
Who you gon' show it to? You can't go to Taboo
This ain't no carnival, niggas is vulnerable
You can depend on Vetkuk-Mahoota the rent is due
You need a miracle
I go to Woolworths, come back and feel terrible
It's easy to stay home
When you ain't gotta deal with no domestic abuse
Please count your blessings
Don't be complaining about your Wi-Fi connection
Don't pay attention to them brand influencers
They can't do jack shit because, influenza
I can't relate cause of the standards I put in place
You taking us backwards
I like your beats but all your lyrics is plastic
There's only one Kiernan Jarryd
Ohh you blowin' up?
Fantastic
[Bridge: AKA]
Thinking to myself, what's the reason that I even started making music in the first place
Only thing I needed was some petrol money
Little mami and a fake gold chain (Yebo)
I got the jacket with the Michael Jackson zipper (Yebo)
Moonwalk (Yebo)
Champagne (Yebo)
All this competition turned me to a killer (Yebo)
Stay solid (Yebo)
Bill Gates (Yebo)
[Verse 2: AKA]
You know this ain't my first rodeo
I don't show love but my photographer Romeo
End of the month, lean on your boy like a Quad
You come up short like it's polio
Spending your dough
Your nose looking like pinocchio
Romany-Creams
That's my portfolio
That was the shit before we heard about Oreo
These type of treats on the reserve for the older folks
You know you gotta get Santi on a lean
How many sugars?
That's how it is
Go boil the kettle
Take care of the kids
My baby you deserve a gold medal
Rose petal, the finer things
[Chorus: AKA]
Thinking to myself, what's the reason that I even started making music in the first place
Only thing I needed was some petrol money
Little mami and a fake gold chain
Do you ever look yourself inside a mirror?
God forgive me for my old mistake
Your holy spirit flowing in me like a river
Saint John, King James, Pro Kid, Lebron James, K. Forbes, Bruce Wayne
I got the jacket with the Michael Jackson zipper
Moonwalk, champagne
[Verse 3: Yanga Chief]
Shampopo, my closet need more Gucci-Dior-go
Since timely put my face on the logo
It's Yanga when he off the gologo
Where I'm at it's a no go
Sure Pop
Ma-Cherry ndisawabambe nge-ncoko
They tryna' profit of my hustle in short forth
Training just to fight with the po-po
I'm started looking something like Tompo
Sending love to magogo
If I don't make it they gon' send me to Polsmor
We-Forbes
Super villain of course
Heavy with the women siyabaphilisa Nkosi
Love me when I'm winning that's a gift and a curse
But she don't f*ck with liquor but she sippin' the purp
I need a rollie and a mansion for the week
Bryanston, let me live
Never had assistance so I did it for myself
Man in the mirror you're movie time show
[Chorus: AKA]
Thinking to myself, what's the reason that I even started making music in the first place
Only thing I needed was some petrol money
Little mami and a fake gold chain
Do you ever look yourself inside a mirror?
God forgive me for my old mistake
Your holy spirit flowing in me like a river
Saint John, King James, Pro Kid, Lebron James, K. Forbes, Bruce Wayne
I got the jacket with the Michael Jackson zipper
Moonwalk, champagne
