M.I.A
M.I.A. | www.AudioCastle.net Lyrics

I fly like paper, get high like planes
I am light and free like a piece of paper, and my experiences are like being high in an airplane.

If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name
I have the necessary paperwork to travel through borders legally.

If you come around here, I make 'em all day
I am so skilled at making things that I could do it all day long.

I get one down in a second if you wait
I am able to complete tasks quickly and efficiently, so fast that it might seem like only a second has passed.

Sometimes I think sitting on trains
During idle moments on trains, I contemplate my life and surroundings.

Every stop I get to I'm clocking that game
I am always observing and analyzing the world around me to find ways to succeed.

Everyone's a winner now we're making that fame
In the current society, anyone can become famous if they have the right approach and means.

Bonafide hustler making my name
I am a true hustler who is working hard to build my reputation and brand.

All I wanna do is And And take your money
Gaining wealth and material possessions is my ultimate goal.

Man I'm rollin' through the city, old school on them big boys 12 inch woofers in the trunk making big noise Got the big toys (toys), dont make me have to flash Let a hundred rounds go, you do a hundred yard dash
I am driving around the city with my classic car and powerful sound system, making a statement. My possessions are so intimidating that others should not mess with me.

Back up in the hood where the rules dont shift And the gangstas talk trills, sip purp and burn piff You can call 5-0 and 5-0 might come But by the time that they arrive all that dirt had been done
In my neighborhood, the rules remain consistent and people value true experiences. Law enforcement might be able to arrive to prevent some crimes, but ultimately the damage has already been done.

Now one things for certain, and two things for sure Being poor is a disease, gotta hustle up a cure Start with your head homie then use your hands If you try it in reverse, you dont even have a chance
Being poor is a very difficult experience, and the only way to overcome it is by working hard and using your brain. If you start with your hands first, you might not even stand a chance.

We worldwide worried with the hunger and the thirst From the third world countries to the second and the first It sounds like a verse but it's more like a plan Get your Robin Hood on, put some pressure on the man, tell it
There are people in all parts of the world suffering from hunger and desperation. We need to take action to help, and we can do so by following Robin Hood's example and pressuring people in power.

I wake up in the morning with my bitch in the bed She don't like the police and she sure hate the feds I love my girl 'cause she gives me what I want She ride in the trunk or either ride in the front
I wake up with my partner, who is loyal to me and shares my dislike for law enforcement. I love her because she provides me with what I need and is willing to ride with me wherever I go.

She looks like 22 but she really 45 Some reason she done made a whole lotta niggas cry So bad that she make ‘em all pull they money out Take it out they pockets and they put it in my pouch
Despite appearing young, my partner is actually older and has caused many men to break down and give me their money.

Ouch! gotta hurt the way that girl do ya She always wanna what take, take, take the moolah Gimmie them pesos the cash and the credit card Might be a broad but the lil' bitch hit ya hard
It can be painful how my partner takes so much from other people, always wanting to take their money. But she is so effective that people are willing to give up even their credit cards.

You the police and we is the robbers You need more than them helicopters to stop us Excuse me, let me introduce my lady Her name is Beretta and she mothafuckin crazy
In this dynamic, the police are the enemy, and we are the bad guys doing what we need to get by. Even with their advanced technology, the police cannot catch us. And my partner, who is named Beretta, is incredibly tough.
