Levitating Lyrics by Xenia Rubinos

2017

[Chorus: Xenia Rubinos]
Way down, all the way down
Way down, all the way down
Way down, all the way down
All the way down, all the way down
[Verse 1: Sammus]
Straight, white, thin, cis, or rich -- you got some privilege
Recognize it, don’t deny how much your life is different
Are you down? Like the force of gravity?
Or really would you rather be gone? Don’t be mad at me:
Listen --
When they give their testimonies and assist them
When they ask for your cojones 'cause you dissed them
Whenever you remain in silence 'bout the violence on their lives
Or you call their protests riots
Well-meaning liberals -- Left-leaning folks
If we criticize you
Then we’re being bitter hoes
Sweet on the outside, salty in the middle
Walk around the block like a McGriddle
So -- will you go the distance?
Or will you vanish in a cloud of smoke like incense?
While brown folks risk things
And they rage against this machine built on green
And no you won’t be missed if -- you ain’t really down!
[Chorus: Xenia Rubinos]
Way down, all the way down
Way down, all the way down
Way down, all the way down
All the way down, all the way down
[Verse 2: Xenia Rubinos]
Esta es pa’ las soñadoras
Pa las lucha libres
Pa las chulas, pa las brujas
Pa mamas abuelas hermana tias y primas
Para las deportaciones, para las mentiras
Pa que tu lo sepas, pueblo mio nadie lo divide
American dreamers: all our
Cousins, aunties, uncles, sisters, brothers
Fathers, mothers
Torn apart by these United States
All for one and one for none
When everything is said and done are you really down?
[Bridge: Xenia Rubinos]
Think you’re running me?
You’re just running out of time
You just run, you just running, you just running
You can’t take my dreams
[Chorus: Xenia Rubinos]
All the way
All the way
All the way
Way down, all the way down
Way down, all the way down
Way down, all the way down
All the way down, all the way down
All the way down
Way down, all the way down
