Ninho – Rose (English lyrics)

1st verse :
I took everything while you were asleep, no one saw me entering
Laying on the couch, I’m in the haunted house
The drug ring got dismantled, the nurse is going crazy
The investigation will be led and names will be given
Biting the forbidden fruit while sitting under the apple tree
I promised that I would be first, even if I have to cheat in order to win
I don’t hear them anymore when shots start to get fired, we’re the most armed
I didn’t back down in front of the enemy, always did what had to be done
The ground will light up like in Billie Jean
If you’re the right one, I’ll present you to my mother
A maximum of cash and I’m getting out of here, I don’t see myself dying as a hip hop star
My life is hurting me, I don’t have the antidote, I spit my anger out behind the mic
Some dirty money converted in clean, investing in a profitable business

Chorus :
I’m in the projects, I don’t smile, except when a brother gets out of jail
More fiends, more stacks, even under investigation, we don’t take any break
My sweetheart would like for me to offer her a rose, rose
But the only thing that I have to offer is a dose
I’m in the projects, I don’t smile, except when a brother gets out of jail
More fiends, more stacks, even under rogatory commission, we don’t take any break
My sweetheart would like for me to offer her a rose, rose
But the only thing that I have to offer is a dose

2nd verse :
Don’t think that everything is a pleasure, this is the voice of the pueblo
A ski mask, a gun and a bike will be enough to freeze your homies
I had to make it out on my own, behind me I had zero older brother
In a hotel room, I’ll go sober up, this is some good weed, so I’m smoking it alone
Mama would say to me : “in musica there’s no futur”, (zero futur)
But the golden records on the walls are reassuring her
The day before yesterday, I had doubts, yesterday, I had doubts, today, it’s sure
We’re doing the hardest part, the war will leave us with wounds
The war will leave us with wounds, we had to it in order to have peace
It’s the trigger that we’re pulling, my team doesn’t tolerate your disrespect
You draw your weapon, we draw our weapons, we’re ready, it scares you and you see that we’re for real
You’ll see, you’ll pay everything that you owe me, there’s no mere delay

Chorus :
I’m in the projects, I don’t smile, except when a brother gets out of jail
More fiends, more stacks, even under investigation, we don’t take any break
My sweetheart would like for me to offer her a rose, rose
But the only thing that I have to offer is a dose
I’m in the projects, I don’t smile, except when a brother gets out of jail
More fiends, more stacks, even under rogatory commission, we don’t take any break
My sweetheart would like for me to offer her a rose, rose
But the only thing that I have to offer is a dose
