It Doesn't Matter
Ah, ah, here we go again, it's 995 III, uh, hey, look...
I know I don’t have to explain what I do or say
but I promised myself I’d never show off in videos again
because there are way more important things than that crap.
A long, long time ago, in a land far, far away,
the father of this MC got on a boat,
no one could’ve told him,
he’d have this beast,
that thirty years later would still be going the wrong way.
Back to my roots, today I’m returning to the hardcore I came from,
being more pissed off than sad,
to face another beat,
to spit messages with my lines,
and to fight with dwarfs dressed as giants,
forget it,
with your modern rap,
if you want to innovate, learn to make good rap first,
Everyone thinks they have talent,
but then in live shows,
you see them looking at the ground,
no, no mercy, you criticize me, I’ll burn you,
because I’m the one who knows how to do this, fool,
Why do amateurs insist on measuring up to me?
if they grew up listening to what I say in my LPs,
I’m human,
but only offstage,
upon that stage, I sprout wings and throw lightning,
not another interview,
not another photo shoot,
I want them to recognize my rap, screw being famous,
no, not a breath,
not a smile,
not another comment about my style,
I’m tired of all this work,
it doesn’t matter what I’ve innovated because...
[Chorus]
It doesn’t matter, if you do it right or wrong,
It doesn’t matter, if you’re cheap or professional,
It doesn’t matter, if you have things to say,
It doesn’t matter, if you have talent or you’re a fool,
It doesn’t matter, the hours you put into this,
It doesn’t matter, if you care about the details or not,
It doesn’t matter, if you put your soul into what you say,
It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter.
I’m fed up with stereotypes,
I won’t be on TV,
doing the clown rapper thing,
I’ve got one last bullet and a million targets,
well, I can’t take them all down,
but I swear I won’t fall alone.
More than a hundred tracks, seven LPs
and you still ask me why I’m burned out?
I have nothing but rage,
I hear everyone talking,
but I go around Spain and our DJs don’t play us in their clubs,
who takes us seriously?,
promoters?, labels?,
you?, the media?,
you copy our records and don’t come to the shows
who are we working for if the rest does nothing?
put an anonymous pseudonym on your forum,
attack your neighbor,
you’re a cancer to our blood,
this sick one is dying,
and there’s only one cure, which is to work together,
I won’t be the one to talk about unity, not this time,
do whatever you want,
I thought you loved hip hop like I do,
and it turned out to be a lie,
that you’re here like you could be anywhere else,
you’ll say, what’s up with Chojin now?
well, what’s up is I’m tired of waiting for something to happen,
Is it that hard to make a jam sound good?
Is it that hard to ask for a clean shower at the hotel?
I’m being honest again,
I get mad because I hurt,
it can’t be that hard to take it seriously,
I’ve poured my soul into a million words
and I’m dying little by little when I see that...
[Chorus]
It doesn’t matter, if you do it right or wrong,
It doesn’t matter, if you’re cheap or professional,
It doesn’t matter, if you have things to say,
It doesn’t matter, if you have talent or you’re a fool,
It doesn’t matter, the hours you put into this,
It doesn’t matter, if you care about the details or not,
It doesn’t matter, if you put your soul into what you say,
It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter.
You know?, it doesn’t matter, fake, I’ve seen you,
and you have nothing to contribute, nothing,
in every neighborhood there’s a know-it-all who thinks they know the key,
but you know?, everything you say I’ve heard before,
no, your big ideas turned out to be nothing,
you’re a loudmouth, a wannabe,
I’m fed up, you know?, fed up.
[Chorus]
It doesn’t matter, if you do it right or wrong,
It doesn’t matter, if you’re cheap or professional,
It doesn’t matter, if you have things to say,
It doesn’t matter, if you have talent or you’re a fool,
It doesn’t matter, the hours you put into this,
It doesn’t matter, if you care about the details or not,
It doesn’t matter, if you put your soul into what you say,
It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter.
"You should listen to what you say"
"You see, you say the problem is that people don’t care,
so I don’t care about people, that’s nonsense,
and do you know why?"
"I mean, you care"
"You want to know? well, yes"
"You won’t change anything"
