Текст песни: Taking Names + перевод

Yo, Ruby what’s happ’n witchu

You got your pare uncle, you feel me, The Gorillapino Pope

You know I be bringin' 'em out but

You brought 'em out man

They got these crazy Filipinos in the building

From Morro Bay to the East Bay, we stay survivin' where we stay

They keep invading' where we lay, there’s no debating' that we pay

That naval base up in Subic Bay

To all the places that they tried to take

From Magellan’s days to Philip’s raid

When the land was raped and they changed the way

‘Til my father drownin' in that alcohol

And then my mama always be up in that Eskinol

'Cause these thoughts make the brown skin start to crawl

So I take the cushion just to break the fall

Second class citizen never been one

Traded the pesos so we can have ones

Darker the skin and you scared of the sun

Silenced to speak with an accented tongue

All of these faces, I‘m lookin' like none

Taught to forget all the places I’m from

But we grew up from the barrio and slums

My aunties be drinkin' that Red Horse and rum

Never be stoppin' the work’s never done

Long as they keep on corrupting the funds

Thinking the damage is done and they won

But we stay militant, daughters and sons

Let’s take it back to the day of first grade

All of you thinking of throwing me shade

My people are roses that grew in the shade

We came up in places exploited by trade

I kill ‘em with a bar, so hot, ‘cause it’s top notch

Thinking that you top mine? Stop, not on my watch

Like it’s 12:30 on the dot, on the clock, watch

All I see are «hands up and down» when the beat drops

'Cause this is roll call

I’m taking names out

We only go raw

I’m takin' aim now

And when it’s roll call

They know my name now

I make them all fall

I’m 'bouta break out

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

Put my San Miguel in a zip lock so I know it’s real

Put my Red Horse in a plastic bag so I know it’s real

Ayan na naman si Bam-Bam, umiinit ang ulo parating ganyan

Pero dapat naman kung wala kang alam

'Di ba’t ka nagpoporma ka na ng ganyan

Para kang buko pandan na wala man laman, and that’s «ehhh»

Buhusan kita ng marami

Politicians, police, and capital greed, pare, ang dami

I say say my name in the right way

Say her name in a pig’s face

Mispronouncing these linguistics might find you washing up in the East Bay

And at this point in time there are tribal tattoo tribes

All these stupid fools put on costumes like indigenous Aetas ain’t still alive

And while they massacre the first island man I see Fil-Ams make clans

Sporting tribal tats but not giving back

And not ensuring the natives can hold land

That’s that part I can’t stand push that PCN beyond dance

Push that PCN for your college club to build bridges up to homeland

Only time I do the tinikling is when the bullets ring an I gotta jump

Big up to eyes in the jungle that’s ready to dump

The guerilla-pinos that’s a shout out to Nump

And I murder a drum like it’s out selling drugs in the barangay to get by

And Duterte gave green lights to vigilantes — now drums must die

Got a little accent when I rap and I go batshit when on a track

But I hold no candles to the sister-soldier, young Ruby Ibaaaarrrrrra!

'Cause this is roll call

I’m taking names out

We only go raw

I’m takin' aim now

And when it’s roll call

They know my name now

I make them all fall

I’m 'bouta break out

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

You thinkin' you winnin, but no you ain’t winnin'

They runnin' this shit… right now

And since the beginning, was taught to pretend

So we bleaching our skin… white now

'Cause even my roots is a product of

When they were killing our kin… wipe out

Oppression from systems that’s holding the power

They huntin' again… right now

But if they mispronounce my name again

I make 'em take in every single syllable over again

And so never say my name if you thinkin' you never can

'Cause my name is a part of me and be something I will defend

So if you cross me, you end in the cross hairs

Crossin' you out when I’m tossin' the bars there

Twistin' they face like they mispronounced names

And I’m tearing them down, I’m not stoppin' my reign

Flow so cold goin' off, from the top, so pro

Break ‘em off when the bars go blow

Ain’t no stoppin' though, when I speak get ‘em coffins, so

I’m a problem that’s plottin' slow

Like a sharp bolo, when I’m talkin' they all get froze

I’m like Pac, MDS, I throw

Hella prophet flows, it’s approximate toxic dose

When I got this I drop it so, keep it raw they know

‘Cause they plot ‘til they stop that soul

When they search off your pockets so

Ain’t no option though, better run when the odds go low

Got your arm in a lock and hold

Hope you say ten fo', or they box and they lock you so

‘Til you rot and you lost control

And they profit though, all these pigs that be plottin' yo

On these kids that they target, oh, it’s a constant flow

'Cause this is roll call

I’m taking names out

We only go raw

I’m takin' aim now

And when it’s roll call

They know my name now

I make them all fall

I’m 'bouta break out

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real

There’s some crazy Filipinos in here

From the jungle, yeah the savage is real
