lirik lagu mc zuko - filthipino
[verse 1]
yo! i’m from the land of so called savages
capitalist and colonial damages
play basketball without sandals and sh-t
national status granted back then, jacked our man for plantations
women for nursing registration practices
it was practically kidnapping, now we got generations of families throwin’ episodes cuz we don’t own stethoscopes
my background is about getting manny pacquiao-style smacked out!
p-ss out if i ever talk back now!
it gets pretty sh-tty when the floods rise, i literally mean that
cats and dogs i eat that…
what? did you believe that?
cuz i’ll chew you up dawg, i’m toxic. wear a hazmat
or i’ll toss ya like a seafood city trashbag
i slumber on the couch or down low on the flo’ with children fittin’ in livin’ rooms of double digit number households
labeled quote on quote “mexicans of asia” so i’ve been told…
but that ain’t a problem cuz we got alot in common!
welcome to my citadel, brown skinned, loving cynical miracle murderin’ verses just like a criminal
spiritual, habitual, att-tude of p-ssin’ through the pinnacle
i just ate a dog don’t kiss my under the mistletoe!
we the original beasts from far lands, keep plastic utensils but still eat with our hands
bleh! yeah i do that sh-t
i dig my face in the rice gobble the poor man’s fish
i get the change in my side pocket and use that, flip it to american sh-t store it in six boxes, and ship it, to the homeland the fam all stand before it
ironic we wantin’ products in a box from the same country that put us in a box, filthipino
[transition]
what ever happened to the values of humanity?
what ever happened to the fairness and equality?
instead of spreadin’ love we spreadin’ animosity
lack of understandin’ leadin’ us away from unity
that’s the reason why sometimes i’m feelin’ under
that’s the reason why sometimes i’m feelin’ down
it’s no wonder why sometimes i’m feelin’ under
gotta keep my faith alive till love is found
[verse 2]
i’ve been flyin’ high since 1995
airplane to the usa, just my mom and i
modern times lookin’ like toonami in cable boxes
kapampangan food on the table, balikbayan boxes
laker losses left us silent, only thing that kept us together
preventin’ people of color from preppin’ another riot
i was a small town pinoy where all around i got annoyed, by the boys and girls who would point and laugh at me
destroyin’ what self confidence i had
chino to latinos, jackie chan to the whites and blacks
embarr-ssed of my own people even they had a crack, at me in the playground
as if it justified they self hate and fake smiles
face down i couldn’t look in the mirrors, without thinkin’ about changin’ my facial features
i would cry under the bleachers
self sabotage what school would teach us
teachers didn’t give a f-ck. racism flew by the head like a sniper losin’ the touch but…
before embracin’ it i was ashamed of it
before embracin’ it i was ashamed of it!
racin’ to erase the race that i was raised to believe, held some pride in my mind until i died
i was,feelin’ like the filipino flag with the red on top i’m ready for war
i was the odd one out tryin’ to even the score
f-ck bein’ a good sport in the game of life
i’m disgraced of my skin color and culture i wonder when the pain subsides
