Текст песни Maiden Voyage (Signor Benedick The Moor) с переводом

Goodbye Everybody

I know there ain’t many people listening, but

Our spirits have been chained

And I say it all the same as

Fire in the streets

Water in our lungs

And solace at our feet

And danger in our guns, so

Goodbye everybody

I hope somebody out there is listening because

Our hearts are too tame

And they should change

There’s Niggers lying in the streets

Water in our lungs

Fire at our feet

And anger in our songs

So I say, goodbye everybody

Goodbye everyone

«What have I been living through?»

«Blackness. That Black Power»

«A lot of work, less pay»

«That Black»

«Less pay than the white man you mean?»

«That's right.»

«Power»

«To me, we are the most beautiful creatures in the whole world.»

«Think it always has to be this way?»

«We are the most beautiful creatures in the whole world»

«Not Necessarily»

«That Black»

«What do you think will bring about a change?»

«Power»

«There's really nothing that I can tell you here that will fully,

really let you know what it’s like»

«To be Black, in a White world,»

«Give everybody a job, that’s all»

«too horrible, and too deep really to communicate»

«That's all any of us really need is a job, they all listening to me,

and standing out here.»

«too horrible, and too deep really to communicate to anyone.»

«you don’t have no job, what are you supposed to do?»

Ah, shit’s fucked up on the ground level

Saw the boy sing your Benedick sound shuttle

A chariot to pick you up and take you to the sky

Where you can live and be Black till the day you die

Without worrying that that day could be near

Because them sirens are here, fill your soul up with fear

Or that maybe you didn’t steer quite correct and now they making an arrest,

there ain’t no peace in how you rest

But in the sky that’s absurd

No more rap attacking we just rapping with the birds

No one shovels quotas, ship is running off of verbs

And we grow everything from stem cells to garden herbs

We, packed with Frankincense and Myrrh

Every record you can think of from Abbott to Blur to?

I’m your captain but don’t call me sir

Come and join me if you’re inclined to concur

Fuck with your boy, woah

«My my job, is to somehow, make them curious enough, or persuade them by hook

or crook, to get more aware of themselves and where they came from and what

they’re into and what is already there, and just to bring it out.

This is what compels me to compel them, and I will do it by whatever means

necessary.»

Yeah, shit is fucked up on the ground level

Let me do my James Brown shuffle

And you know they gotta testify when I come up in the spot at the top,

looking extra fly

With an extra eye, extra high, to the best of my

Knowledge I’m the truth of the roots, and the rest a lie

Testing my patience but I been patiently waiting

I’m fucking everything up and these niggas just masturbating

I’m taking back what was taken

No faking, I’m hot like Satan. But godly in what I’m stating

All other rappers forsaken. I be taking, turning pigs into bacon

In the face in, promenade in they faces

Spitting Iron till around niggas face in

Contemplating all the lives I’ve been taking

Gotta job with no application

I’m who they be putting faith in. I put they’re faith in a basin,

and drowning it like I’m Jason

Come back as a fucking killer, kill all these rappers adjacent

The pigment in my skin make sure I’ll never been complacent, bitch

Cooking plans up in the basement which

Never suited my style I prefer me a Cajun dish

Southern fried binary, bacon numbers, and cooking books

I had to make me a name so these niggers they give me some crooked looks

They had it but I took it, Whoops

Got it in there quietly

A thief in the night because not having gave me anxiety

During the day I swear I’ve been living my life so piously

Eating pie out the windows at those who living propriety

I do the Charleston all over all these fucking clouds

Some niggas sin is the way that they be smelling loud

I led the life that made my momma and my daddy proud

And I love my girl, I guess that really means I’m older now

I put them on my shoulders now, they ain’t gotta do shit

Bout to make a difference with some Hip Hop music

Ain’t nobody better than Benni and I can prove it

I got an airship with ice cream paint job

Now there’s a cool whip, bitch I do it

Bitch, do that, do that, do that *3

Bang bang, on the sound of a chain

Everybody wants gonna come with the pains

Clang clang, with the sounds of the chains

On the riffs, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

Fight in the testing

Commonly misconceptions

Common conception of we is in common with Smith and Wesson

Now spell it out really easy to help you people who guessing

Professing a lack of knowledge, assessing a lack of college

Contesting a sack of promises, and problem is mostly cognitive

Having to do a prerogative is oftenly not posited

So again so make it all negatory

Let a young prema tell his mega story

Maiden voyage, beotch

Maiden voyage bitch, yeah

It’s the mother fucking first flight

It’s a mother fucking birth right

So all over you waiting ass niggas

So all over you waiting ass niggas, uh

We in the air

But don’t call this a Zeppelin (no, no)

All gold, man we flexing (flexing, flexing)

We ain’t with all of that hating (no no no)

Love’s what we professing

Love is the profession

We picking the bodies from Xena to Aubrey

So freshly so oddly, that stunting on who we be vexing

Stunting in oppression. Painting all our chains so we shine, now they call it

an obsession

But look at this collection

Our cops all be harassing and arresting, and it’s only a reflection

And the mirror is in my possession, everybody with questions should consider

this a topical lesson

Psychological weapon

Neurological auditory Smith and Blessing

All leave this impression

It’s like a footprint in the mud, or a handprint in the blood

When there’s blood on the leaves, and the leaves is still on the trees and no

one is more responsible than the hand that’s supposed to be feeding,

man that’s real

Maiden voyage bitch

Yeah, it’s a mother fucking first flight

It’s a mother fucking birth right

So all over you waiting ass niggas

So all over you waiting ass niggas, uh

Bathe your big boy

Drive this monstrosity away

Drive this evil spirit to the cave

I never used to dream of extra arms, but now

I feel the weight of stranger’s eyes

Possession is dangerous thing

And as I sail right by the tower with this king:

A man who know not what it means to have to see

Amazing unicorn blood

Amazing uniformity

Amazing unicorn blood

Amazing uniformity

Bathe your big boy

Drive this monstrosity away

Drive this evil spirit to the cave

«I'll tell you what freedom means to me: no fear

I mean really, no fear.»

As we fly over a swollen grave

Now close your eyes make sure this memory safe

You don’t have to be swoll to be brave

You don’t have to be perfect, but please, do behave

We heading anybody that tests us, who acting reckless

They nearly headless

We offer that patronis how you expect us, to stay sober after a breakfast.

Fasting fast, it’s vitals that infect us

All that big talking don’t impress us

The life of a sailor under the moon, in it till it’s over, but I hope it’s over

soon

Won’t stop until all my people eat but go to spoons

All the racists go bananas, now who they calling baboons, ah

Now who they calling baboons

Always been the greatest but don’t write it on my tomb, man

Even the greatest used to practice raps in his room man

In the sky

Life below is just a lie

Come and see it with your eyes, man, life is just a lie

Come and get a piece of pie, when they wanted you to die, they won’t even ask

you why, stupid niggas asking why

Come and be a smart guy, nigga look up to the sky

And see niggas fly

«my my job, is to somehow, make them curious enough, or persuade them by hook

or crook, to get more aware of themselves and where they came from and what

they’re into and what is already there, and just to bring it out.

This is what compels me to compel them, and I will do it by whatever means

necessary.»
