^^ Leave Osman alone. He is making sense. I too dislike most of this rapper's stuff (and, no, it is not 'hate', it is TASTE). icon_razz.gif

 

His similes are rubbish and metaphors simplistic!

 

Compare his: "When niggaz is just fried chicken like Tuesday"

 

To classic lines such as:

 

"Jack yo ***, like a looter in a riot".

 

Or even the famous fat kid that loves cake. :D

 

I mean, hip-hop is a lot of noise after all. The words are what make it worthwhile and if you don't have the words you have nothing.

 

(But I may be wrong and those empty words above might mean something profound in 'yoof' lingo). icon_razz.gif

I guess since he's pro somaliwayn that does elicit lots of negative comments from certain people. But, that's life...not everyone believes in the same thing. At least respect those who have different opinion than you...

Dayless nights

 

couldn't figure out the first line
:(

I look for peace but no'in is to rain

cuz in the desert it will only rain pain...

now look at this

I see some ships that have no business here

I try to run the sea am not that fast

I trip and fall and barely escape the blast blast

 

cuz Dayless nights

I see some pirates in the ocean late at night

they move around and just can't wait to fight

watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

 

Dayless nights

I see some pirates in the ocean late at night

there is never peace somethings will never change

watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

Meditate could I have lived if I have never strayed

wait

this is somalia people am afraid

I have no lemons to make lemonade

and so excused

I know I have only known the tragic broken rules

Got no'in to eat and really no'in to lose

it is do or die and am prepared to blow fuse

 

cuz Dayless nights

I joined pirates in the ocean late at night the thing I said will never make it right

watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

 

Dayless nights

am in the darkness I cant seem to find the light

there is never peace somethings will never change

watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

 

Got my wish I caught a ship to eat instead of fish sticks

when i get paid I will live the life I missed

we caught the Alabama Maersk Ship

but what a risk

The tide switched and captain Philip has been stationed braving this

they came to save him and am glad hes free

and now the Navy Seals shot me shot me

now am free from the dayless nights

I joined pirates in the ocean late at night nothing I said will never make it right

watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

 

Dayless nights

am in the darkness I cant seem to find the light

there is never peace somethings will never change

watch out for the pirates in the ocean late at night

the first line is

 

'i gotta tip toe over dem land mines. '

 

second line is 'i gotta look for peace but not in this terrain'

 

but everything else is good. smile.gif

 

you're welcome yariisay. icon_razz.gif

Got nothing to do with where he's from, adeer. If I had any energy I think I'd get offended at that comment of yours. icon_razz.gif

 

(it's musical taste and words, adeer. That's all it is).
