Текст песни Camera - Oddisee

I done seen most things that life throw atcha
Within my short life of chapter
My mind's a camera, that's sent to capture
Current affairs, past present and after
And put in to rapture, slang for rappin - scripture
Put it together yall catch the - picture
I really got a gift for, puttin to words
Human plight, not a his or a hers
When the rifts occur
I fit in the verbs
Then put it to action, while I chill on the kerb
I'm here to motivate black men
And sisters too
The city is madness, like fashion my city produce
All days, all ways it's stagnant
My fellow man is like Othello, and in this sense we tragic
There it ends like traffic, minus the theatrics
Anyway,??? is classic

Ridin on the bus, see the problem with us
Latinas gettin on with a baby in they arm
With one in the womb strugglin with a stroller
Ethiopian woman sittin don't wanna scoot over
For a Nigerian who just wanna sit closer
To the front like Rosa, damn
We supposed to be fam
Salvadorians bringin gang violence in???
Don't speak Spanish they'll hardly implore ya
Kids outta school in the back of the bus
Straight actin a fool, see classes they cut
When I think about us, it's? scary
Cause these knuckleheads gon join the military
Where all options buried, and youthful regret
They carry orders through to shoot from a jet
And kill Arabs, the same folks we mistake Indians for
Cause they all wear Turbans, damn it's disturbin, man

I try to say what I see without bias
Recording is important, and the beats is the wires
To deliver a piece, to the streets over beats is better
Than a speech by Cosby about how lost we
Are in the slums in overall consumption
Over all the humps, then why we still hustlin?
African Americans was born in the system
A lack of socialism ensure us the victims
Investing in illusions while immigrants are sending they investments through western union
We want shoes, and they want books
Oprah look, why we want books when we aint got schoolin?
Lost in the vanity, chastised by a woman who face is on the cover of all of the magazines
This is insanity, yo this is humanity
And I'ma take a picture how it is, and how can it be...
