Paradise
Lyrics
Take me to paradise
I found it inside of your heart
My Love, you can't rewind
Your Loving, your Love and my Love
I know you can't be mine
You don't know how I feel
Take me to paradise
Can't you take me to paradise
Take me to Paradise
These city lights remind me
That every night i'm probably
Just another statistic
Hispanic with no linguistics
Of my culture
You know I hold on
But let's be realistic
I just need another way to find my mind and soul
I tried to use the money I just wanted mo'
Tell me how I leave
But without letting go
Tryna swim in money
You gon' drown in gold
Now tell me what I come for
If I can't eat the breakfast made by Young Lords
And march out with the Panthers
Black Power powered this young boy
My Uncle Sam told me change is necessary
That evil in him must be hereditary
Slavery in my history
With a massacre in it
The Star Spangled Banner's just a disastrous image
Of their spectacular killing
I'm just as mad as the ones who had to be mad
'Cause they lived
Sorry for sinning
I ask with them
Take me to paradise
I found it inside of your heart
My Love, you can't rewind
Your Loving, your Love and my Love
I know you can't be mine
You don't know how I feel
Take me to paradise
Can't you take me to paradise
Take me to Paradise
Where can I find it
Minorities are the majority
I am reminded
My childhood memories
Of these coffee beans as I sipped it
Made every hispanic thought in me vivid
Ancestors livid
I see it now
My tongue has been wiped down
Crayolas have couldn't colored me in
So I pipe down
My own kind don't accept me
Assume why I write now
These melodies is the entity where I pour life out
These pores right now
Sweat out the image of this poor lifestyle
Picture this lyricist in need of assistance
Ripping this mic out
I sit on these park benches
And contemplate on this life, how
Does the Universe work
And Love never meant to be perfect
From slaves to the masters, I
Seen people slave for they Masters, why
'Cause we earning a degree to be in debt
And then complain how we upset
Because the passion that we chose
Don't give enough to pay the rent
Take me to paradise
I found it inside of your heart
My Love, you can't rewind
Your Loving, your Love and my Love
I know you can't be mine
You don't know how I feel
Take me to paradise
Can't you take me to paradise
Take me to Paradise
Take me to paradise
I found it inside of your heart
My Love, you can't rewind
Your Loving, your Love and my Love
I know you can't be mine
You don't know how I feel
Take me to paradise
Can't you take me to paradise
Take me to Paradise
These city lights remind me
That every night i'm probably
Just another statistic
Hispanic with no linguistics
Of my culture
You know I hold on
But let's be realistic
I just need another way to find my mind and soul
I tried to use the money I just wanted mo'
Tell me how I leave

Tryna swim in money
You gon' drown in gold
