about

Written by James Marlon Magas & Asia Argento
Produced by James Marlon Magas

lyrics

I don’t rap
I don’t need your crap
I’ll finish with you
And I’ll go take a nap

Chorus:
I sound just like Benedict Cumberbatch
I make fun of them who can’t spit words that match
I’ll slice ya, dice ya
Stuff ya and spice ya
Like a chicken
Finger-lickin’
Like a timepiece that’s tickin’
WATCH!
Check your opticals
I’m unencumbered by obstacles

You melt like a popsicle
Cuz my heat is tropical
I run deep
While you stay topical
In your analysis
You face paralysis
This ain’t no Wonderland
And you ain’t no Alices

My name’s James Marlon Magas
But you can call me Magas
But then in ‘16, the name was up for grab-us
Then I got the fuck out
And now there ain’t no doubt
Who’s got the balls and who’s got to go without
Two
Well, that’s you
So you better look out
I make ‘em scream and shout
I played in the LOD, Many Moods, Ski Troop Attack and Couch
And don’t forget the Browns
I’m not fuckin’ around
I’ll show you how to get down
A strange kind of rhythm
And a funny kind of sound
You think you’re moving up
But I am coming down
On your head
Like a rock
I like to roll
With my 12-inch record

(Chorus)

Er mio nome è Asia Argento e c’ho l’argento vivo dentro.
Puoi dire di me quello che vuoi, mi sta bene, c’avete ragione voi.
È er potere della musica che mi tiene viva, faccio girare dischi dentro sta quarantena.
Io rimango fedele solo a me stessa, nessuno può dire che mi sono compromessa.
Questa smania de vive, chi me l’ha trasmessa?
No mi madre, no mi padre, no mi zio.
In realtà non lo so nemmanco io.
È er potere dell’universo che qualcuno chiama Dio.
Rimango fedele al mio credo oppure muoio: non dovevi sottovaluta’ er mio orgoglio.
De tene’ testa a chi me vuo’ portare giù.
Frate’ me sembra tutto un déjà-vu.
So tre decadi che brancolo nel blues.
Fateme uscì’ de casa, fateme uscì’ dalla capoccia, c’ho ancora cent’anni de luccicanza grezza nel mare, di sentire in faccia la sua brezza.
Lo giuro su mi madre, non mi avrete, non mi contaminerete.
Lo giuro sulla testa di mia figlia: il mio regno per il suono delle onde dentro una conchiglia.
