Testo I'm Still Somehow - El Michels Affair feat. Black Thought
Testo della canzone I'm Still Somehow (El Michels Affair feat. Black Thought), tratta dall'album Glorious Game
Push come to shove once and for all
Moments of pause, answer the call
If it's the last dance, with that said
It's the last chance to evolve
Bein' a black man's been a job
Look at the loved ones I have lost
Give me a CAT scan, I can't stand
When the drug starts wearin' off
What they would call goin' through withdrawal
Nothin' to fear but fear is all
Nothin' to board these spirits off
Better prepare for a tear to fall
I say a prayer for a miracle
Pinnin' a parable to share with y'all
It's about one crown who was run down
Somehow still standin' tall (tall)
Look, I received heat from a friend
We will get knee-deep, get it in
I will be three sheets to the wind
Then I'll repeat dumb shit again
Yo, they was vibin' on psilocybin
Phil Collins or Phyllis Hyman
Criticized, but it's still a problem
To get a rise from the threat of violence
That's a gateway like Ellis Island
We should take time, smell the flowers
At the baseline for the powers
That be, I wonder what the hell is ours?
May as well keep livin' lawless
If I face charges regardless
I'ma race now from the margin
But somehow, still a livin' target
Out of socket, out of darkness
Out of pocket, out of office
Whoever thought to collect an orphan?
Didn't ever say shit about a coffin
All the tools that we had was hammers
That's exactly what we would brandish
Whole high waitin' for the time
We get a placebo instead of answers, I mean
Yeah (I mean)
Let's talk about (I mean)
Let's talk about (I mean, I -)
They say, black joy is rebellion
A happy black boy's like an alien
I see what ain't fail yet is failin'
So we adapt, that of a chameleon
True advancement, who the champion
That somehow smiles for the cameras?
With the strength found through the anthem
And somehow beautifully handsome
We too powerful for you to cancel
This is not a groove you could dance to
This is nasty
