In the shadow of the buildings, look at us
What is left for us?
Dust

Bro, it's my gift to the have-nots
I, the mullah among the outcasts
To those who have no bread and have lost their teeth
And live in public housing in hive-like cells
With their own and their sisters in forty square meters
They have beasts crammed in penitentiaries
Those who maybe get handcuffed for adolescent mistakes
They go to jail and come out criminals
This is for the various wrongs suffered from institutional pigs
To those who go out late at night without fancy clothes
Those you see at the club only if there's an open bar at the party
To every drunk in the city lost
Who every day wanders and looks at the bros sideways
To those who took it on credit and now are in trouble
You risk cuts if you hope to tell them you weren't cut out for it
To those born without breath, without fate
God made them, at His table without a plate
To those who have a concealable blade inside their boxers
Want easy money from someone with dockers
But you can't give low blows to fate
Bro, fate is a lie and has short legs
And the prince never looks for a wife in the sewers
Our women give birth to children with cravings
To those who realize I have the fabric to tell the story
I stay true, my fabric is of damn social cloth

This piece is priceless to those who asked for it (dust, remember who you are)
Ask the dust, here it's different (the dust, remember who you are)
It's not sociology, movies, books, or a text (the dust, remember who you are)
My relationship, bro, is direct (you are dust, ask it)
I'm in the middle of it and I didn't choose it, no, it's hell (dust, remember who you are)
Ask the dust, here it's different (the dust, remember who you are)
It's not sociology, movies, books, or a text (the dust, remember who you are)
My relationship, bro, is direct (you are dust, ask it)

Ask the black dust
From the drum of a revolver or the colorless but still true one
That envelops us, bro, it's misery, not money
Man, you were born docile only to harm (ask the dust)

To those who wake up early in the morning
Resign themselves to an honest job, eight hours, the same gesture
To those who at that hour lay the last line, annoying
In chatter and silent only to themselves
To those who often get dragged into it reflexively
If you rhyme, you pretend to be rough, I dis-respect
Gullible with the myth of a man all in one piece
You just need acetone and you hold a compressed stone, fool
To those whose mother is anxious and sleepless in a bed
To those dressed in anxiety, sleeping in a waiting room
Those whose father speaks only dialect
Times and ways change and the world conjugates with the imperfect
To those who dream of the spotlight and fame
At dawn, the spotlight is that of a moving truck
For your voids filled by our faces
Left or right remains a trap for mice
And to my grandfather who in Sicily still squeezes the vine in the garden
And to my father, they squeezed the life out of his body
And to my dirty, dirty, filthy
To those who have suffered and want everything and immediately
Mine is a lineage of the defeated
The damn cycle of the vanquished and fake myths
The ancestral hunger, those who are hungry swallow and don't chew
If they chewed, they would know how much the world hurts them

This piece is priceless to those who asked for it (dust, remember who you are)
Ask the dust, here it's different (the dust, remember who you are)
It's not sociology, movies, books, or a text (the dust, remember who you are)
My relationship, bro, is direct (you are dust, ask it)
I'm in the middle of it and I didn't choose it, no, it's hell (dust, remember who you are)
Ask the dust, here it's different (the dust, remember who you are)
It's not sociology, movies, books, or a text (the dust, remember who you are)
My relationship, bro, is direct (you are dust, ask it)

Ask the black dust
From the drum of a revolver or the colorless but still true one
That envelops us, bro, it's misery, not money
Man, you were born docile only to harm

Dust, remember who you are
The dust, remember who you are
The dust, remember who you are
You are dust
Dust

Dust, remember who you are
The dust, remember who you are
The dust, remember who you are
You are dust, ask it
