Aggio girato pe' mille cittÀ

senza me ferma'

a londra, 'a francia, 'a spagna, 'a tunisia stongo a casa mia

so' nato abbascio 'o puorto e che vvuo' fa'

ll'aggio vista ggiÀ

a ggente ca vene e sene va

senza cchiÙ turna'

pe' denaro ammore o pe' curiositÀ

pe' fuji' d'a guerra o nu se fa truva'

senza nomme e senza etÀ

si me vuo' a casa mia ll'aggio truvata ccÀ

we're satellites of souls

beaming and receiving

replacing world of stories

that you've been omitting

cut through the wire that you

find yourself trapped in

here's where i be and here's where i'm living

larger then judgements of what i am

simple complex like dna strand

freedom of movement and thought make the man

so i'm stepping over yonder to learn what i can

cannot be held under your itchy finger

thoughts are dead 'cause you pulled the mental trigger

don't know where i'm from so i'll tell you "go figure"

i was there before you and you were before see

because we're all cut from the same tree

people talk about wanting to chuck the immigrants out and i say

"ok fine" that also means i'm going to take my tea gonna take my potatoes

gonna take my gunpowder what you gonna be left with - you're left with

absolutely zilch maybe a little bit of grass that you can munch on like a cow.
