Poetas de Karaoke

Karaoke Poets

Rappers nowadays are like pornography
Not everyone gets excited because there's an excess of supply
Offense to the philosophy of our immense minority
A kid plagiarizes, photocopies piracy
And joins damage to those who take away the original magic
Yo, reflect and repeat with me I acted wrong
Only you know what you used and when the well is dry
From the top you start falling and you're not welcome like a stepfather
That's when I distance myself quickly with a parachute
I don't like you like a payador doesn't like coins
Boy listen
I don't need comebacks with hits
I do poetry, most do verses
Forget the others, dot the i's
Put the tales in the trash
Or good sounds on the record, Got it?
Consistency integrity longevity in essence
You have to be patient
I put myself in the queue, filled out the form, won a T-Shirt
When I heard calling an artist named bi
At first sight it was cool to have the profession
I'm a vocalist, I'll give you the list of those who think they are
Every title is relative, every statement
I'm creative and I say it with all the esteem
Diction is important but yours is fiction
Like DJs I see on the decks don't mix
Without conviction
I feel ahead of people who are influenced by
Only one reference, only one song
They are imitation of the writing that limits the direction
Avoid solicitation, need correction

They say they sing hip-hop, but they don't say anything
They come with poetry but it's just a facade
Portuguese is not tired they come with English
I practice practicing our language again
Whether hip-hop, rock they are karaoke poets
Stop if it doesn't block for the karaoke poets
In your block in your stock
they are karaoke poets, karaoke poets, they are karaoke
poets

Put grammar into practice
Didactically or dramatically, quoting techniques
Poetics with aesthetics
Phonetics always attentive to the surprising
With metrics ahead, for skeptical demanding minds
This is for everyone, not just for MCs
This is for Portuguese who never write in the root language
They want to be international but they are here in the country
And they are never original they are New York or Paris
I've always been D. Dinis, you're from wherever suits you best
Where there's more fame and benefit
And if there's more money it's accepted
And if there's a lady with a good chest do they think that's respect?
Confirm and confirm the statement? You don't wake up
That I condemn your false cause that you address
Contracts are signed with conditions you don't agree with
And the ties are grateful
For the slaves who fatten them
There's no credibility in the performance
The microphone is not on that's nonsense to me
I don't understand your point in my sound, I make sense
Because I write as I speak, as I dream and as I think

They say they sing hip-hop, but they don't say anything
They come with poetry but it's just a facade
Portuguese is not tired they come with English
I practice practicing our language again
Whether hip-hop, rock they are karaoke poets
Stop if it doesn't block for the karaoke poets
In your block in your stock they are karaoke poets
karaoke poets, they are karaoke poets

Eeahh did you hear that sound?
Ridiculous man, disgusting man, what... and man, I get mad at those guys
It's... these guys Sam the kid, Sam the kid
It's always the same thing I... and then they come with those lyrics
Tec tec tec tec? it's... I don't understand anything man
I never liked rap man... for sure they didn't go
to school... right, they don't know scales... they don't know
scales... they don't know anything and then they come with... it's the music
It's you know, you think, you are
And just his name is contradictory... well... Sam The Kid
what is that man... that's English, it's American
And who is he to criticize me... he's nobody man.... the
man... you should listen to music man... you should listen to music
They don't even know how to write man... a, e, i, o, u right?
They don't even have the 4th grade... I make you happen to you
That they don't understand any of that... they can't write

[Sam The Kid]
Oh guys... guys, guys, it's like this, you're there
Talking nonsense but I tell you now, look... my Portuguese

It's not correct and I'm more of a poet than you
All of you from rock, pop, hip-hop written in English
With the excuse that it was the music you heard growing up
I never needed to listen to Portuguese hip-hop to do it
That's what gives more pleasure my language exploration
You try another language to try exportation
Want to be Moonspell want new horizons
But here Samuel is Madre Deus is Dulce Pontes
Because there's an identity you're all identical
You're authentic beggars sold for cents
You don't understand my feeling and lie
Try journalism or don't comment
You do tourism of emotions that others feel
I do bodybuilding of expressions that everyone feels
You never prepare and don't stop with new repertoire
Yours is not current it's a magazine in a doctor's office
And it's clear that history doesn't want your presence
In Apollo's report rejection was the sentence
I know, what I saw of the hard stainless steel type
More than obvious photocopies that I call pure XEROX
You'll see how it is, you leave kicking
Because I go up like hoofer's you fall like p Sodré
You're a café without SportTV, with the spot empty
You can't evolve by ignoring the challenge
It's just laziness!
