Ozomatli: La Segunda Mano

Martha Verse:

El sendero que viajamos sin luz no puedo ver
(The path that we travel without light I cannot see)
En esta encrucijada esperamos renacer
(At the crossroads we wait for rebirth)
Y despues que apredimos desicion pa esocoger
(And then we learn that the desicion is to choose)
Mi duende lucha entre la flor y el machete, no tengo remedio que dejarlo a la suerte
(My soul must choose between the flower and the machete, I resolve myself by leaving it up to luck)

CHORUS:

La Segunda Mano
Ya te Pegarar En La Frente


Jabu:

Ok here's the case and point
Jab walked in slow, quick cased the joint
That's when he seen her played the cool pero
Heard all her home girls scream "go vero"
Uh um, con permiso
Then everything stopped like a freethrow
Free flow for the next three months
She so sprung he don't even know what she wants
Invest in the best thing, best bet, but he always out
Him and other girls wrestling
In debt to the karma cops
And they don't care if you're young, broke, or old they're collecting
Thought I paid up
My girl home early from work I'm laid up
Well that's the end, as scandalous as it gets
Lost my good thing
Got burnt with some grits

CHORUS:

La Segunda Mano
Ya te Pegarar En La Frente

2nd verse

Should've seen how this girl had me
Met her online, said her name's happy!
Would've gladly asked her on a date
Saw my page and she said "to your friends add me"
No doubt
Took her to a lounge
She had on high heels with ten toes out
Then she hit me with that Hollywood crap, asked about my ends and how I make pepper jack
I said I rhyme I'm a rap up and comer
Then she said cool, but "do you have a hummer"
No, "you gotta get a grill"
What for?
Did an about face, walked right out the door
Tried to catch me, broke her Jimmy Choos
Sweat her perm out, tryin' to catch me cruisin'
Yep, that's the deal sunshine
A digger of the gold, is no friend of mine

CHORUS:

La Segunda Mano
Ya te Pegarar En La Frente


Just clap your hands
Just do your dance (2x)
I know you think this beat is fresh
homeboys and the ladies too
same things that you put out there
Gon' all come back to you
So its time for y'all to hit the floor
Everybody gon' and do that dance
Just remember if the first hand miss, then beware of the second hand

CHORUS:

La Segunda Mano
Ya te Pegarar En La Frente
