Genius English Translations - Residente This Is Not America Ft Ibeyi English Translation Lyrics

[Intro: Residente]
We are here
Hey, we are here
Wait for me, we're here

[Verse 1: Residente]
A long time ago, when you arrived
Our shoe prints were already there
They even stole the cat food
And you're still licking your plate
Well pissed off with these ingrates
Today I'm beating the drums hard, until they accuse me of mistreatment
If you don't understand the data, well, I'll throw it to you in cumbia, bossa nova, tango or vallenato
Calaboo or bamboo style, well frontal
Hot-blooded like Timbuktu
We are on the menu
2Pac is called 2Pac, after Túpac Amaru of Peru
America is not just the USA, daddy
It's from Tierra del Fuego to Canada
You've got to be really gross, really hollow
It's like saying that Africa is just Morocco
These scoundrels forgot that the calendar they use was invented by the Mayans
With the pre-Columbian Valdivia for a long time, ah, this continent walks
But even with all the navy they can't get the peasant pest out of the showcase
This goes to the foreman of the company
The machete is not only for cutting reeds, it is also for cutting heads
[Chorus: Ibeyi]
Here we are, we are always here
We're not gone, we're not leaving
Here we are to remember you
If you want, my large knife bites you
Here we are, we are always here
We're not gone, we're not leaving
Here we are to remember you
If you want, my large knife bites you, ah
If you want, my large knife bites you, ah
If you want, my large knife bites you, ah
If you want, my large knife bites you, ah
It bites you, ah, it bites you, ah

[Verse 2: Residente]
The paramilitaries, the guerrillas
Children of the conflict, the gangs
The blacklists, the false positives
The murdered journalists, the disappeared
The narco-governments, everything they stole
Those who demonstrate and those who forget
The persecutions, the coups d'état
The country in bankruptcy, the exiles, the devalued peso
The drug trafficking, the cartels
The invasions, the undocumented migrants
Five presidents in eleven days
Police shot at point blank range
More than a hundred years of torture
La Nova Trova singing in the midst of dictatorship
We are the blood that blows, the atmospheric pressure
Gambino, my brother, this is America
[Chorus: Ibeyi]
Here we are, we are always here
We're not gone, we're not leaving
Here we are to remember you
If you want, my large knife bites you
Here we are, we are always here
We're not gone, we're not leaving
Here we are to remember you
If you want, my large knife bites you, ah
If you want, my large knife bites you, ah
If you want, my large knife bites you, ah
If you want, my large knife bites you, ah
It bites you, ah, it bites you, ah
