lirik lagu thiago - ufo
started in the land of urubus
back when we had to tell the family toodle loo
to the land of opportunity, bald eagles
where our people only dream to be
i see you soon
my city dirty but it’s beautiful
even though that river from my memory’s a sewage route
even though we’d eat fruit in the dark to not see the maggots in them
out of sight, out of mind
traffic signals ignored
stickup kids at intersections get bored
don’t stop at the red, just watch ya 6, 10-4
same kids play ball next day at the dirt field
family gone awol, beg for food at the mall
what is worth a meal? what is worth a k!ll?
what is nerves of steel? what is hurt?
how does a person learn not to feel?
we still go back yearly, reconnecting with our kin
looking back, where all lessons begin
i been flying like a ufo
i been flying like a ufo
you can only grow when you let go
of that helium balloon
watch it float up to the moon
i been flying like a ufo
i been flying like a ufo
you can only grow when you let go
of that helium balloon
watch it float up to the moon
i been flying on a different plane, seats with screens on the back of em
different day, different kind of speech with the p-ssengers
eu nao sei, had to teach ourselves through the anchormen
channel 8, dad can’t pr-nounce the word “earthquake”
he says, “earth cake,” i would ask for on my birthdays
at age 7 i got gl-sses with the nerd frames
still couldn’t see life for what it is
it’s all in a blurry kind of light when you’re kid
i got big, grandma couldn’t believe how tall i gotten
i’m 6 foot, but next to my cousins, i am still the smallest
we get along, but i still miss when we had more in common
arguments over which z-fighter we thought was the strongest
i’m spirit bombing
grandfather was an alcoholic
his eyes were full of promise
bless his soul, downing spirits, slowly lost it
he was a jazz drummer, syncopated pain
he had forgotten how to play along with my name
oh grandfather, you don’t know?
oh grandfather, you don’t know?
traded sounds of the blues and soul
for the sights of the booze and smoke
i been flying like a ufo
i been flying like a ufo
you can only grow when you let go
of that helium balloon
watch it float up to the moon
watch it float up to the moon
yeah red balloon with the strings on it
yeah red hat with the wings on it
pops bought a red truck with no d-nks on it
melodies stick with you, colors are symphonic
green eyes, green shirt when i rep home
levi’s triple worth when i get home
blue mood tunes work with the headphones
everybody tryna get gone
yellow bellies on the television
politicians being selfish with it
no such thing as a wealthy limit
smells from the kitchen when we visit
hear my father and uncle argue bout nationalism
making decisions off of rationalism we should just pack up and ditch
living conditions is shhh had to ask for -ssists
too many times that my family got robbed
we could escape from it all now that my dad got this job
i been flying like a ufo
i been flying like a ufo
you can only grow when you let go
of that helium balloon
watch it float up to the moon
i been flying like a ufo
i been flying like a ufo
you can only grow when you let go
of that helium balloon
watch it float up to the moon
