SHAY – 1200 (English lyrics)

Chorus :
Between you and me I think we deserve better than that
Between you and me I think we deserve better than that
A thousand two of monthly gross salary is not enough
A thousand two of monthly gross salary is not enough

1st verse :
A thousand two of monthly gross salary, we deserve better than that, nigga
Golden necklace for my madrina
Imma steal from the safe, it’s a must
The owner got everything thanks to a fucking inheritance
It’ll will be without ticket if I have to ride the metro or the tram
Falsified payslip and credit pass
Just hope that you’re not at home when we come knocking at your door
My rumbling stomach justifies my radical methods
The landlord wants his dough, I’ll curse his ass out
30 square meter, we deserve better than that, nigga
Put the damn money in the bag
They mistook failure with being bored at school
How can you not believe them when you’re ten years old ?
They’re the ones that are at fault if today we sell so much drugs
Bottle of Evian filled with palinka

Chorus :
Between you and me I think we deserve better than that
Between you and me I think we deserve better than that
A thousand two of monthly gross salary is not enough
A thousand two of monthly gross salary is not enough

2nd verse :
Ski mask for the robbery
Thursday, in summer, we’ll turn it to mardi gras
I followed multiple courses, we thought we had a chance
African family name on the resume killed her chances
An hour and a half long trip for the morning commuting
Eight hours of hustling for a small capital
Interplanetary drug retailing
L.o.t.t.o in the millions immediately
To all those religions that get trashed by the medias
To all those religions that get trashed by the medias
I was already labeled as a “child that is screwing up”
Before my umbilical cord was cut
The cause to effect was inevitable
At every track I cause a riot
Set shit on fire, set shit on fire
A thousand two of monthly gross salary, I swear, we deserve better
You can find us wherever there’s any crimes going on

Chorus :
Between you and me I think we deserve better than that
Between you and me I think we deserve better than that
A thousand two of monthly gross salary is not enough
A thousand two of monthly gross salary is not enough

Outro :
A thousand two of monthly gross salary, I swear, we deserve better than that
We deserve better, we deserve better
We gotta pile up our stacks until we touch the sky
Touch the sky, touch the sky, touch the sky
A thousand two of monthly gross salary, I swear, we deserve better than that
We deserve better, we deserve better
We gotta pile up our stacks until we touch the sky
Touch the sky, touch the sky, touch the sky
