jonny farias - this is a summary. (live at the lovinger theater) lyrics
[intro]
this is a preview of the jonny farias project. this is a summary. accept your roses, and enjoy
[pre-verse]
as we proceed
to give you what you need
keep an open mind
you don’t have to agree
[verse 1]
i’ll be honest, i ain’t happy
it’s the return of the lyrical desperado
my past endeavors should vindicate my bravado
the alias ain’t far from the birth name
my motions cause pandemonium in the worst ways
phenomenon in the making, i’m never calm nor complacent
opportunities taken, i solemnly swear my creation strays from the basic
thank you for being patient; the bars stay formulaic, yet belated
hsas linchpin, they might stay silent ‘bout it
my nine to five is finalizing all the lives of liars
really, just give me a mic and a stage, a couple lines on the page
forget ice on your neck when you have ice in your veins
the head honcho’s talking, you’re responsible for listening
every line is jotted down to chronicle my pilgrimage
people don’t believe i put my heart and soul in everything
i should really put them in a hospital for questioning
i offend the hollowest trend followers, never kid around
mean demeanor, and i’m with the tilted crown
the gringos filched the sound, but the chico sticks around
and to run the world, i gotta cross countries like ms. genao
you think you’re spitting foul, but i’m never shouting and-one when i take shots
always slam dunk on the compet-tion, what i’m dishing is the magnum
star like the fifty, but i’m kneeling for the anthem
lyrics richer than mansa musa, savant and student
every time i put a track out, they like “hallelujah!”
you can’t compare me to my adversaries
i shatter every -ssumption, the factors to these actors vary
each verse examined under a microscope, so don’t ask if they scare me
filling up the cemetery, ask sam or terry
i don’t share lanes, my drive is too persistent
g-ssin’ on records like it’s a piece of cake
[verse 2]
i capture the essence of the past and the present
what p-ssed was a present, i’ll be rapping ‘til i p-ss onto heaven
the peasant turned to a master, i got that palpable presence
it’s simply power, i’m reppin’ for all these black and brown children
even my average aggressive, you can’t even fathom my best sh-t
learned from mathers and kendrick, i have surp-ssed and transcended expectations
in a cl-ss by myself, the game’s hannibal lecter, go animal planet on records
i don’t plan it, it just happens, i guess i’m too savage and reckless
tell your family and friends that i’m threatening a m-ssacre of all the commended
the lyrical blackbelt is ending, i’m like the cavs in the 7th
i’m packing the pressure of a gat when i spit it
listen
i’m the -ss-ssin thrashing apprentices spattering my dress shirt
i’m the champion, the expert, the captain, the commander, the menace
the combatant of venice, the man wielding weapons of m-ss destruction
nada can stop this, what’s that coming, duck for cover!
[break 1]
black (black, black, black)
brown (brown, brown, brown)
white (white, white, white)
you (you, you, you)
who shot ya?
who shot ya?
who shot ya?
who shot ya?
mr. farias. it seems as if you’re forgetting something. amor vincit omnia. love
[verse 3]
pinch me, tell me is this all a dream?
when i’m with you, magic is what it seems
abracadabra, how am i to manage without you?
‘cause you’re always on my mind, yeah
always on my mind
always on my mind, yeah
always on my mind
take a breath before i jump in
won’t you step into my mind?
careful, don’t go too deep when you step into my mind
nakupenda
[break 2]
this is a reminder to the audience and anyone watching or listening that you have the right to feel however you feel. doesn’t always make it right
[verse 4]
i got love for my city, i got love for my family
for my friends, for the people who relate and understand me
all my enemies are testing me, i have to love them too
if you touch my friends or fam though, i might have to come for you
look who kept us in these shackles, so that they stay dominant
lord, i try to stay peaceful, though the world is not my friend
i know that change, it starts within; been reminiscing on what should be common sense
yo, this cause is bigger than a monument
oh, the woman’s getting cheated with a missile on our minds
hands up, man down; racism got us dying
justice blind and invisible, what do we tell the kids?
dreamers, prayers, lovers, fighters, let us put an end to this
white house, black fence, closed mouths, nonsense
revolution the resolution, don’t be despondent
stare in the eyes of evil, end the stereotyping of this country
‘cause i ain’t gon’ let the man run me
hey
