New York Metronom(original) |
| New York er byens by, verdens metropol |
| Moderne Konstantinopel, tidens metronom |
| Nettopp metroen eller heller kall den New York subway |
| Er pulsåra fra Brooklyn og opp til Broadway |
| Den holder byen som aldri sover alltid våken |
| Fra Bedstuy til South Bronx — den er alltid åpen |
| Og over tusen kilometer lange skinner stormer |
| Flere passasjerer daglig enn det er i hele Norge |
| Helvete ha’kke no' på hete bølga nedi her |
| Jeg tenker at jeg burde hatt på mindre klær |
| De sier tusenvis av folk bor inne i tunnelen |
| Knutsen og Ludvigsens historie e’kke dems fortelling |
| Sprayboksen ble funnet opp på Oslos øst |
| Men det er her dem skjønte hvordan den sku brukes først |
| Det er her grafitti fødtes, krabba og tok løpefart |
| Grand Concourse 149 var møteplass |
| Ta det fra en t-baneramp reisende blant |
| Menige mann under den evige kamp |
| Å male banen er en writers fuckings holy grail |
| Men med de lovene så får du kjapt et år i jail |
| Du kan’ke signe, kan’ke etterlate DNA |
| Grafitti squad har folk som etterforsker heftig spa |
| Så vi sniker oss på skinnebro i Queensbridge |
| Under ser vi hvordan nattgatelivet glir fint |
| Refuse har vært å spana lenge på et sted hvor det |
| Nettopp den helga står et set i express-sporet |
| Gjemmer oss inni, baner passerer kjapt |
| Adrenalinet pumper, så jeg svever as |
| Rister cansa før vi går ut for å være stille |
| Han skisser opp piecen, jeg jeg b’yner fylle |
| NYPD bare cruiser noen meter under |
| Tiden går i et annet tempo i sånne stunder |
| Inn og ut, så smooth, vi fikk ikke noe chase engang |
| Så for meg er Miranda fortsatt et jentenavn |
| Denne teksten kommer fra Rap Genius Norge! |
| (translation) |
| New York is the city of cities, the metropolis of the world |
| Modern Constantinople, the metronome of time |
| Precisely the metro or rather call it the New York subway |
| Is the artery from Brooklyn and up to Broadway |
| It keeps the city that never sleeps always awake |
| From Bedstuy to the South Bronx — it's always open |
| And over a thousand kilometers long rail storms |
| More passengers daily than there are in the whole of Norway |
| Hell, don't worry about the hot wave down here |
| I think that I should have worn less clothes |
| They say thousands of people live inside the tunnel |
| Knutsen and Ludvigsen's story is not their story |
| The spray can was found in Oslo's east |
| But this is where they figured out how to use it first |
| This is where graffiti was born, crawled and took off |
| Grand Concourse 149 was the meeting place |
| Take it from a subway ramp traveler among |
| Ordinary men during the eternal struggle |
| Painting the pitch is a writers fucking holy grail |
| But with those laws, you will quickly get a year in jail |
| You can't sign, can't leave DNA |
| Grafitti squad has people investigating hot spa |
| So we sneak onto rail bridge in Queensbridge |
| Below we see how the night street life glides nicely |
| Refuse has been scouting for a long time in a place where it |
| Just that weekend there is a set in the express lane |
| Hiding inside, lanes pass quickly |
| The adrenaline is pumping, so I'm floating |
| Shake the cansa before we go out to be quiet |
| He sketches the piece, I try to fill it |
| The NYPD just cruises a few feet below |
| Time goes at a different pace in moments like that |
| In and out, so smooth, we didn't even get a chase |
| So to me, Miranda is still a girl's name |
