Текст и перевод песни Abra feat. Loonie & Ron Henley of Stickfiggas - Cerberus

Cerberus

Sige, pumasok ka
Sa loob ng aking utak, utak, u-, takbo
Sige, bilisan mo pa hanggang sa madapa
Kasi ang kupad-kupad mo
Takbo, para 'di ka maabutan
Kinikilabutan, kinatatakutan mo
Kapag nahuli ka, patay kang bata ka
Na para bang nakunan sa sinapupunan, uh

Isa, dalawa, tatlo
Kilala bilang mga sira-ulo
Halatang inakala ng iba
Na 'di makapangyarihan ang mga ginayuma
Wasak ang mga talukap
Ng mga masangsang na alamang at talangkang walang alam
At halatang nagtatangkang maghatakan nang pababa nang pababa lang
Hanggang sa hangganan ng walang-hanggan

Puro mga inggiterong nabagot
Oo, mga feeling-erong nayamot
Pa'no niyo 'ko hihilahin sa balong malalim
Eh, 'di niyo nga 'ko maabot?
Bra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ra, chik-chik, bang!
Oh, 'di ba, nakakatakot?
'Pagkat 'di niyo matatakasan ang boses ng kabataan
Kapag sure hit ang mga pasabog

Sino ba 'yan? Sinubaybayan at sinabayan
Lang naman ng buong sambayanan
Kahit gago, makabago, makatao at makatarungan
Eto na si Abra, tan-ta-na-nan!
'Di man katangkaran pero nakayanang
Umakyat sa pedestal at gumawa ng himala
Binatang makatang matinik na kakaiba talaga mag-isip
Maski maliit, ang dami pa ring mga tumitingala, brah

Sige, pumasok ka
Sa loob ng aking utak
Pwede mo itong ihalintulad
Sa isang higanteng pintuang 'di mo maitulak
Tignan mo itsura, 'di mo masikmura?
Parang ginawa mong inumin ang suka
'Wag kang umasa na mangyaring magkatsansa ka sa 'kin
Kasi distansiya natin bituin at lupa

Libo-libong sinagupa, binaon parang basura
Pini-picture-an ko muna
Bago ilibing sa lupa, primitimong lirisismo
Pipilitin kong pihitin kung tingin mo, kiliti mo'y
Imposible kong makuha, Pilipinong sining at literaturang
Hinaluan ng mga bara na parang heroglipiko
Ang sulat, mga titik na inipon at sinukat
Ay nagiging ipuipo 'pag hindi ko naisuka

'Pag ako nagalit
Papaupuin kita sa dala ko na karit
Ako si Kamatayang bumaba mula sa langit
Alam mo ba kung bakit?
Para sindihan ka nang buhay
Hanggang sa malapnos ang balat at makalbo ang anit
'Pag parang kambing na 'yung amoy
Papatayin ko 'yung apoy, palakol ang gamit

Sige, pumasok ka pa
Sa loob ng aking utak
Hinulma ng usok, puyat
Kuya Kiko at ni 2Pac
Susubukan kong unatin at sukatin sa talampakan
Upang makita nilang lampas 20 ang taas
Maaring makapasok, kaso nga lang 'pag pintua'y nagsarado
Siguradong 'di na pwedeng lumabas

Sige, pumasok ka
Sa loob ng aking utak
Para kang umakyat ng Banahaw
At naligaw sa gitna ng gubat
'Di mo maintindihan, parang dikit-dikit na sulat ng doktor
Mga kabit-kabit na letra, parang tren
Pinatatakbo pa rin kahit akala ng iba'y
Kinakalawang ang motor

Hawak ko'y tinidor na mula kay Poseidon at Shiva
'Pag tinamaan ng lintik
Siguradong may baong matataas na along
Kayang lumamon ng isla
Salamat, ginising mo
Ang pinakamatangkad sa limang daliri ko
Uso 'ata ang utak at pusong mabato
Panahong paleolitiko

Masdan mo ang sugat sa likod ng larawan
Ng mga multong 'di na nagparamdam
Dati'y binabahayan ng pula
Ngayon nama'y binabawi na ng mga itim na langgam
Naramdaman ang nagbabagang lupa
Mula sa palad ng shaman
Nagpatangay sa hangin
Hanggang sa mapadpad sa patag na dapat lakaran

Pagdaan ko, mga aso kumahol
'Yung iba ay naglabas ng pala, piko't asarol
Sinubukan nilang hukayin ang lalim
Ngunit natagpuan lang nila ay ang kanilang sariling ataul
Tanggalin niyo na muna
Ang mga muta sa mata na nakabara
Hala, sige, maghilamos nang makita niyong
Mga patay na isda lang ang sumasabay sa agos

Takbo

Cerberus

Come on in
Inside my mind, mind, mi-, run
Go on, hurry up until you trip
Because you're so slow
Run, so you won't be caught
You're terrified, scared
If you get caught, you're dead, kid
As if caught in the womb, uh

One, two, three
Known as the crazy ones
Obviously, others thought
That the ones they drugged are powerless
Broken are the eyelids
Of pungent krill and crabs who don't know anything
And obviously trying to pull each other down, just down
Until the end of forever

All jealous people who are bored
Yes, feeling-entitled people who are annoyed
How will you pull me into a deep well
If you can't even reach me?
Bra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ra, chik-chik, bang!
Oh, isn't it scary?
Because you can't escape the voice of the youth
When the bombs are sure hits

Who is that? Followed and accompanied
By the whole nation
Even though he's a jerk, innovative, humane, and just
This is Abra, tan-ta-na-nan!
Not tall, but capable of
Climbing the pedestal and making a miracle
A young, sharp thinker who's really unique
Even though he's small, there are still a lot of people looking up to him, brah

Come on in
Inside my mind
You can compare it
To a giant door you can't push
Look at the appearance, can't you stomach it?
Like you made yourself drink vinegar
Don't expect to have a chance with me
Because our distance is stars and earth

Thousands were trampled on, buried like trash
I'll take a picture first
Before burying in the ground, primitive lyricism
I'll try to twist it if you think, your ticklish spot is
Impossible for me to get, Filipino art and literature
Mixed with bars like hieroglyphics
The writing, the letters collected and measured
Become a whirlwind when I don't throw up

When I get angry
I'll make you sit on the chariot I brought
I am Death who descended from heaven
Do you know why?
To ignite you with life
Until your skin is scorched and your scalp is bald
When it smells like a goat
I'll put out the fire, using an ax

Come on in
Inside my mind
Molded by smoke, sleepless nights
Kuya Kiko and 2Pac
I'll try to stretch and measure it on my feet
So they can see that it's over 20 feet tall
You may enter, but when the door closes
You're definitely not allowed to leave

Come on in
Inside my mind
It's like you climbed Mount Banahaw
And got lost in the middle of the forest
You don't understand, like a doctor's scribbles
Connected letters, like a train
Still running even though others think
The motor is rusting

I'm holding a trident from Poseidon and Shiva
When struck by lightning
Surely there'll be a well with high waves
Capable of swallowing an island
Thank you, you woke up
The tallest of my five fingers
A mind and heart of stone are in fashion
Paleolithic era

Look at the wound behind the picture
Of the faces that no longer show up
Once inhabited by red
Now being reclaimed by black ants
Felt the burning ground
From the shaman's palm
Surrendered to the wind
Until it landed on the flat ground that should be walked on

As I pass, dogs bark
Others brought out shovels, pickaxes, and crowbars
They tried to dig deep
But all they found was their own coffin
Get rid of it first
The mucus in your eyes that's blocking
Come on, go wash your face so you can see
Only dead fish are going with the flow

Run
