Like a magnet, like a magnet
Since I was fifteen, like a magnet
I went round the world like a bird
The hood in my skin in every move
Street kid grew up rough, I tried
Wary like a wounded animal
Never tamed, you can leave me
Like a magnet, I think of before
I cry for my dead, I talk to ghosts
Full speed no helmet like I'm fifteen
Obscurantism, is the world screwed
I fall asleep to street fights screaming
And wake to the seagulls singing
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Between overflow and nothingness
Only soothed out in the open air
I choke till I lose my mind
Those who kept watch have all gone
I'm like that old woman, I live in the past
Hurt by promises betrayed
And by injustices that won
Like a magnet, everything's carved
In their judgments we read our stigmas
We read our wounds that heal badly
Used to picking up the debris
Used to being dissed
Our distress, if ever we voice it
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
I can't leave the hood, nah
Generation Tomorrow's Far Away
Walk in a pack like stray dogs
Walk through the city till no hour
CV, CV since the nineties
Anything can ignite in a blink
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Out of line, fond of off-piste
Blows of fate teach you acrobatics
Wild kid survived, I tried
Dream of the open, but captive like the wounded beast
They tried to tame, you better beware
Loving heart or hateful heart
'Cause rancor is huge, ours fade out
Of those we strangle, of those they trash
Between ascent and free fall
So we live head to the wind, full blast
Like on a two-wheeler along the cliff road
Like a magnet, in these dark corners
Treated like rats by the police
So my brothers play cat and mouse
Joints in mouth, night birds go hunting
The moon is full, blood is boiling
The madrugada will end up slashing
Down on the ground, like a magnet
In those hours when it burns
Where booze flows in hot tears
Eyes fogged till dawn or till beyond
Nothing changes, except plainclothes and narcs
Nothing makes sense anymore
Families evicted, nights blood-bath
To our prisoners, to our missing
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
I can't leave the hood, nah
Generation Tomorrow's Far Away
Walk in a pack like stray dogs
Walk through the city till no hour
CV, CV since the nineties
Anything can ignite in a blink
Like a magnet, like a magnet
I can't leave the hood, nah
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Walk in a pack like stray dogs
Like a magnet, like a magnet
Like a magnet, like a magnet
like a magnet, like a magnet
