Текст и перевод песни Shanti Dope - Amatz

Amatz

You have proved that you fight well
Now you can join us

Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Sobrang natural, walang halong kemikal

Dati kataka-taka pa
Kung sa anong dahilan ka nila binabalik-balikan
Para saan ka pa ba nila pinagsusunugan
Ng salapi sa kada silid-gamitan?
Makinang na bato, mapadamuhang mabango
Pataas o pababang matamo
Talo ka pa din sa mata nilang
Naka-"Ano 'yang dala mo?", 'Tus ka, 'wag ako

Anong bago d'yan?
Kamatayan o parak na umaga o gabi, may kahabulan
Dami ng nasa ataol pa
Hanggang katapusan, laki ng kita sa kahuyan
Bata ka pa lang, may babala na kay Itay
Na iwasang madapa sa kada batuhan
Kahit kaya mo na tumayo sa mga paa
Dapat tumanda ka pa din ng dala mo 'yan

Sabi nila sa 'kin nu'ng bata
"Aye, ano ka kaya pagtanda mo?"
Ito hinangad ko, lipadin ay mataas pa
Sa kaya ipadama sa 'yo ng gramo
'Di bale nang musika ikamatay
Kaysa pera't atraso, bala ng amo
Kahit dami nilang alimango
Eto pa 'ko sa kalawakan, nakade-kwatro

Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Sobrang natural, walang halong kemikal

Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Sobrang natural, walang halong kemikal

Ako ay bituing sa Cavite
Kuminang para lumaganap pa maigi'ng
Mapalamanan ang pitaka nang 'di pa a-15
Nadapa para bumangon ng triple, uh
Natural kaya kung pag-initan ng iba
Tila damo na sa Benguet pa nakatira
Kabi-kabila, palibhasa, reyalidad ko'y
Ako lang may kaya kumabisa

Layo'ng 'di makita
Katuparan dati na lalong kinasiba ko
Magutom, gumaling pa
'Di sa medisina, lason sa botika
Natural lang tayo
Mangako ka sa pipa, nakatago sa kusina
Payong kapatid, 'pag tumikim
'Di na madali tumakbo sa halik n'ya

Mag-isa nu'ng hinagilap ang kaya
Paipadama ng paramatma
Mahamantra, nakalinyang chakra
Paangat ang ginawang baitang palayo sa mapa
Kalawakan na nasa isipan natamasa
Lumaganap pa pangalan pero 'di mo 'ko kilala
Sumabay o makimasa, panadero din naman ako
Sa kada kaibigan ang kasama sumagad, uh

Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Sobrang natural, walang halong kemikal

Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Lakas ng amats ko, lakas ng amats ko
(Sabi nila, sabi nila)
Sobrang natural, walang halong kemikal

Amat, pa'no ka nga ba dinadala?
Amat, dapat ka nga ba dinadama?
Dapat ka nga ba minamata?
Pati nilang mga 'di ka pa natitikman, aba
Madali na magpakamapangmata
Para sa kanilang 'di mo pinasaya
Napakadami ng ngalan mo
At naghangad makilala ka, kawalang gana na

Amatz

You have proved that you fight well
Now you can join us

The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
So natural, no chemical mixture

It used to be so strange
For what reason do they keep coming back to you
What are they burning their money for
In each gambling room?
Shiny stones, fragrant redness
To rise or fall
You still lose to their eyes
With "What are you bringing?", "Come on, not me"

What's new?
Death or a high that lasts morning or night, maybe months
There are many people in the coffin
Until the end, big profits in shame
When you were just a child, Dad warned you
To avoid tripping over each stone
Even though you can stand on your own feet
You should still grow old carrying that

They told me when I was a child
"Hey, what will you be when you grow old?"
This is what I aspired to, to fly even higher
Than what a gram can make you feel
It doesn't matter if music kills me
Than money and debt, the boss's bullet
Even though they have many crabs
I'm still here in space, sitting cross-legged

The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
So natural, no chemical mixture

The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
So natural, no chemical mixture

I am a star in Cavite
Shining to spread a better
Filling my wallet before I'm 15
Touched to get up three times, uh
It's natural if others pick on it
Like grass that lives in Benguet
Whisperer, because my reality is
Only I can whisper

A distance you can't see
A fulfillment from the past that I craved even more
To be hungry, to get better
Not in medicine, poison from the pharmacy
It's just us
Promise on the pipe, hidden in the kitchen
My umbrella brother, when he tries it
It's not easy to run to her kiss

Alone when I sought wealth
To be felt by the divine
Enchanted, misaligned chakra
Elevate the steps made away from the map
The vastness in my mind was achieved
The name spread further but you don't know me
Come along or join in, I'm a baker too
With every friend, the companion goes all the way, uh

The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
So natural, no chemical mixture

The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
The strength of my amatz, the strength of my amatz
(They say, they say)
So natural, no chemical mixture

Amat, how are you carried?
Amat, should you be felt?
Should you be underestimated?
Even those who haven't tasted you yet, oh
It's easy to be arrogant
For those you didn't make happy
You have so many names
And those who wanted to meet you, are now disinterested
