La Diaspora - Nitty Scott, Zap Mama

Little honeysuckle be the reina of the jungle

Mira mi tranquila vida riding down the Congo

Got that El Dorado and my mama do the mambo

I’m so aficionado when I’m banging on my bongo

Little honeysuckle be the reina of the jungle

Mira mi tranquila vida riding down the Congo

Got that El Dorado and my mama do the mambo

I’m so aficionado when I’m banging on my bongo

Rolled up clean in the whip

Fly girl lean on, seen in a bit

Team full of queens, lil' gleam on the wrist

Feed up her jeans, shawty mean in the hips

She’s seeing if it’s lit

Let her beam, let her twist

Whine to remind and she twerk to resist

Working it and worship the earth in her dip

Stolen from Africa seeking a gift

Sixteen on a ship

Dreaming to the beat of the drum all day

One with the sun let it lead my way

La hija de la diaspora

Dreaming to the beat of the drum all day

One with the sun, let it lead my way

La hija de la diaspora, yeah

Sing!

Little honeysuckle be the reina of the jungle

Mira mi tequila vida riding down the congo

Got that El Dorado and my mama do the mambo

I’m so aficionado when I’m banging on my bongo

Little honeysuckle be the reina of the jungle

Mira mi tequila vida riding down the congo

Got that El Dorado and my mama do the mambo

I’m so aficionado when I’m banging on my bongo

Freed all my people, from here to Montego

Dale morena, like this Puerto Rico

We go, when we make it rain like El Nino

Got that sofrito, that primo, that negro

None of the hitters is fucking with me though

We so cool, we ride off in El Camino

We gon' be seen, yo, no need no Nat Geo

Got so much juice, they just call me Tampico

Dreaming to the beat of the drum all day

One with the sun let it lead my way

La hija de la diaspora

Dreaming to the beat of the drum all day

One with the sun, let it lead my way

La hija de la diaspora, yeah

Sing!

Bam, bam, dreaming to the beat of the faded drum

Sung, sung from the tongue of the native one

Bam, bam, dreaming to the beat of the faded drum

Sung, sung from the tongue of the native one

The spirit is alive

Light another fire, if you fuckin with the tribe, vibes

I said the spirit is alive

Light another fire, if you fuckin with the tribe

This is the story of the diaspora

Her tribute to the daughters of a marooned society

Yo soy negra y latina
