America (feat. Mos Def and Chali 2NA)

Uh huh uh huh uh huh

Oh this takes me home,

It makes me think about sitting outside of my old home

When I was younger and singing something likeGabaryaray shuxaano

Maro Shabeel eh xirato

Maro qafiif eh huwato

Magacaaga ii sheeg?

Magacayga waa Sharaf

Sharaf, Xaaji weyaan

Aqalada xiriirta

Dhinac baa ka jooga

Ala yaa usheega?

Tinta ushaleeya?Naa hoey Zamzamey!

Sabaax nuurey!

Adoo kilkiley

Iyo

Kaloon badanay!

Adoo xajka jira

Xasuus badhanay!

Saxiibtaa

Caasho, cashaq baa dhilay

Ugu dhambaystina

Aniga iyo geel uba

Ugu banaan bixinWaa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayeyWaa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayeyWaa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayeyThere are certain things fresh,

And certain things mesh,

I got my own sound I don't sound like the rest,

And even my attire and my choice of dress,

And not long ago I don't spoke English

My point is police pull me over a lot

They wonder what kind of rap sheet I got.

And sometimes I take a young girl out to eat,

And hold the door open oh your so sweet,

Of course my affection's super illustrated

And I like to give don't reciprocate it

Unless you could give me someone innovated

Well lets cook it up we dont refrigerate it

But back to the country of the educated

Where people get robbed and they celebrate it,Waa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayeyWaa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayeyWaa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayeyMaraken,

My country tis of thee

Sweet land for robberies

Dos smokin' S-U-V's

Grab me an army green

Fat and frills

Thrills and spills

Eat and sleep

Hump and kill

Shop til you drop

Work til you dead

Get all you can

Then get in the wear

Outta my face

On your knees

Sleep in the mansion

Shut out the streets

Make that cake

Woop that trick

Lick my swagger

Suck my sick

Get high get low get sticky get rich

Get yo own show get down get quick

You slow you blow you broke your fix

Terror dome, home swag home

Terror dome, home swag home

Home swag home

Home swag homeThere are some things pure while certain things blur

Dilute it with the lie and you believe when it occur

Falsified information got my people in the stir

We have to be in search of something equal to the cure

Straight out the door, I come to give you more

Lay the law keep it raw, when I speak it from the core

Get underneath your skin like especially with the claw

Conflicted with the rich cause I kick it with the poor

I laugh in the face of adversity

Sound clashed with the bass cause its natural to me

But if you pay attention to the past you will see

Not long ago you black they'd hang your ass from a tree

Certain things things change, while some stay the same

Some are recluse others are lovers of the game

I'm trying to walk the lane,the siratul mustaqim

(Arabic for 'the straight path') was the cane

Instead of doing things they keep you covered in the flame.Nanananana that shit was cool in English,

But let me get that Somali verse.Gabaryaray shuxaano

Maro Shabeel eh xirato

Maro qafiif eh huwato

Magacaaga ii sheeg?

Magacayga waa Sharaf

Sharaf, Xaaji weyaan

Aqalada xiriirta

Ugu dhambaystina

Ugu banaan bixinWaa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayeyWaa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayeyWaa aniga orodneey!

Nabad dheynee!

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey

Mareekan waa laga soo waayey
