Galaxy protectas in the Mexican mecca Some microphone wreckers seek the rest of the nectar Stay swift May 5th ain't the end of the story Indigenous existence in the cession territories Whatever the weather hope the best will get better Posted up alto Cali in the Mexican mecca No you can't keep us down or take the rest of our treasure One nation under ground nothin' less than forever No you can't keep us down or take the rest of our treasure One nation under ground nothin' less than forever No you can't keep us down or take the rest of our treasure One nation under ground nothin' less than forever I went east of the river where the heavens beheld I hope and pray to the same for them to bless and be well Came back to the city where I steadily dwell Where the concrete's hot and the melodies swell Where hip hop comes to rock just to say it was there We not asking for the perfect no one said it was fair But there was something bout the Heights that made me feel so at home When I was young with my family man I felt so alone I didn't speak espanol but I did read comic books My tios clowned my ass as nerdy and quite easily shook I mistook their playful ribbing for some real disdain I didn't see their work and love for fam just blinded by pain Sometimes I get ideas flashes of how I could've begun To understand my heritage and where my family came from When I go east of the river is an instance of such a vista And a vision of a family a people a reconquista Galaxy protectas in the Mexican mecca Some microphone wreckers seek the rest of the nectar Stay swift May 5th ain't the end of the story Indigenous existence in the cession territories Whatever the weather hope the best will get better Posted up alto Cali in the Mexican mecca No you can't keep us down or take the rest of our treasure One nation under ground nothin' less than forever School I resented mexican dudes that showed machismo Heard their cruel laughs and thoughts of tios lo mismo When I went to jail I was approached by the Latinos They said 'in here we stick together so you go where we go' Once I got a nine to five finally respected the tribe It was never the Mexicans that neglected to try Gave a father a hand up he was expected to fly And when he had himself some seeds he would protect them and die Mexicans find each other it's a beautiful thing The after sweetness of pan dulce what the crucible bring So I went east of the river heard familiar laughs But now I know to love my tios cause familia lasts When I chill with these hip-hoppers man I nearly collapse We laughin' drinkin' smoking yo time really elapsed If your mind's feelin' sublime that's a subliminal haze I felt the calling of Aztlan in new original ways Galaxy protectas in the Mexican mecca Some microphone wreckers seek the rest of the nectar Stay swift May 5th ain't the end of the story Indigenous existence in the cession territories Whatever the weather hope the best will get better Posted up alto Cali in the Mexican mecca No you can't keep us down or take the rest of our treasure One nation under ground nothin' less than forever My ambition as a scribe is now to bridge all these tribes I have to learn that native tongue my grandma ain't got much time But when I really think about it what she probably wants Is for her grandkids to be able to live extravagant Once we have our own largesse we can spread the success Whatever ism suits you best just help our moms be less stressed My professor said Tristan listen it can't be resisted Through reproductive momentum it's a Reconquista Look who populates the land you find yourself livin' in What's a piece of paper matter how we see citizens I said I knew he was right when I looked at myself Now it's my job to help my family and my personal health And I desire to help my people but probably your people too When you look back on your life everyone needed you I went east of the river like my name was al green Soul cleansed from what I smelt, what I felt, what I seen Galaxy protectas in the Mexican mecca Some microphone wreckers seek the rest of the nectar Stay swift May 5th ain't the end of the story Indigenous existence in the cession territories Whatever the weather hope the best will get better Posted up alto Cali in the Mexican mecca No you can't keep us down or take the rest of our treasure One nation under ground nothin' less than forever One Nation and it's Brown Nothing less than foreva One Nation Loving Sound, Nothing less than foreva One nation under ground nothin' less than forever Nothing less than forever nothing less than forever
