Quincy Jones Lyrics
"Many Rains Ago (Oluwa)"
(feat. Wyclef Jean)
Screaming so loud that I'm losing my voice
Them boys they grabbed my wife
Stabbed her twice took her life
Wanna know why I got this anger
Wanna know why I keep a banger
I see that man told my daddy on tracks
Train ran him over and the boys don't even look back
I got no reason to live
They just lynched my kids
Sometimes I just wish I'd jumped ship in the Atlantic
Then I wouldn't have to deal whit this shit
Then I'll woke up from the nightmare dream
Roots on my TV screen
Like Martin had a dream
All his kids and harmony
Sing it loud like a symphony
If you're free let it ring, let it ring
If you're free let it ring, let it ring
If you're free let it ring, let it ring
If you're free let it ring
Sing me
That old song
From many rains ago
[Repeats]
When the rain fell down
When the rain feel down
Lost your children by the sea
Take it from the land
Many years ago
Goodbye mother land
Sing me
That old song
From many rains ago
[Repeats]
Let the rain fall down
Let the rain fall down
You are the chosen one
I got to go back to the motherland
I got to get back to the motherland
[Repeats]
Goodbye my baby
Sing me
That old song
From many rains ago
[Repeats]
Let the rain fall down
Let the rain fall down
You are the chosen one

Letra de "Hace Muchas Lluvias (Oluwa)"
Letras de Quincy Jones
"Hace Muchas Lluvias (Oluwa)"
(feat. Wyclef Jean)
Gritando tan fuerte que estoy perdiendo mi voz
Esos chicos agarraron a mi esposa
La apuñalaron dos veces, le quitaron la vida
Quiero saber por qué tengo esta ira
Quiero saber por qué guardo un arma
Veo que ese hombre le contó a mi papá sobre las vías
El tren lo atropelló y los chicos ni siquiera miran atrás
No tengo ninguna razón para vivir
Simplemente lincharon a mis hijos
A veces solo desearía haber saltado del barco en el Atlántico
Entonces no tendría que lidiar con esta mierda
Entonces despertaré del sueño de pesadilla
Raíces en la pantalla de mi televisor
Como Martin tuvo un sueño
Todos sus hijos y armonía
Cántalo fuerte como una sinfonía
Si eres libre, déjalo sonar, déjalo sonar
Si eres libre, déjalo sonar, déjalo sonar
Si eres libre, déjalo sonar, déjalo sonar
Si eres libre, déjalo sonar
Cántame
Esa vieja canción
De hace muchas lluvias
[Repeticiones]
Cuando la lluvia cayó
Cuando la lluvia cayó
Perdiste a tus hijos junto al mar
Tómalo de la tierra
Hace muchos años
Adiós, madre patria
Cántame
Esa vieja canción
De hace muchas lluvias
[Repeticiones]
Deja que la lluvia caiga
Deja que la lluvia caiga
Tú eres el elegido
Tengo que volver a la madre patria
Tengo que volver a la madre patria
[Repeticiones]
Adiós mi bebé
Cántame
Esa vieja canción
De hace muchas lluvias
[Repeticiones]
Deja que la lluvia caiga
Deja que la lluvia caiga
Tú eres el elegido
