From the album "Union Verdadera"
[Johnny Strange]
now i'm a dirty motherfucker from da southside
i'm fucked up smelling out my mouth right?
but i'm not giving myself up i pull my ass out the dust
living up to da top ready to blast cause i trust in faith
and i know it's not to late
even if they cut my dick i'm gonna det my shit straight
cause i make my move and my move gonna take me further
cause i refuse to lose and i hesitate to murder
i heard a lot of rumours about mine and one of them says
people dem a call me one a di tres tristes tigres
REFRAIN
tres tristes tigres comen de tres tristes platos
tres tristes tigres tres tristes destinos
tres tristes tigres tres tristes dÃas
hörst du das das sind drei traurige tiger
[Don Cali & Lafrotino]
yo me rebusco mi comida como un perro
soy alerta y despierto como bandolero
buscándome dÃa a diario mi dinero
en esta selva de animales donde nadie es sincero
con mis trigres estoy me acompanan a donde voy
porque soy el que hoy y manana
los acompana toda la semana
en esta triste tigre vida cotidiana
[Larsito]
3 traurige tiger als sieger gehen sie hervor
verlierer sind in den augen vieler unrealer kaliber
schleichend bewegen wir uns augen überall
überfallartig wandern wir von ort zu ort
REFRAIN
[Larsito]
jeder von und ist arm dran deswegen tun wir uns zusammen
gemeinsam wolln wir erklären wie wir sind und und ernähren
[Johnny Strange]
we eat cats dogs rats and reptiles
mix meat like mix beatz with rapstylz
that's why you get hi when yo test my spice
with the nicest taste and the best price
[Don Cali & Lafrotino]
tengo un calambre del hambre
tengo un calambre del hambre
porque cuando poco como me vuelvo loco en el coco
[Johnny Strange]
now we connect our intellect to protect respectness
indirectly we inject ya with perspectives
select this as the freshest track on your setlist
just get this we bounce flows down like fretless
