La Banda

Back on the track
You know the Griot is back
The superhero saving class from those teachers that slack
They ask how can I teach about brown and Im black
Zapateros a tus zapatos Their abuela said that
Well my nana said this, and she taught it to me
Those who can do, and those who can’t teach
I know my accent is weak and I can’t roll my r’s
But I can teach you about your story like I did ours
So I drove home to LA linked up with up with J Ali
I said lets take latin sounds and mix them with ip hop beats
We created tracks for days it was 90 degrees
Damos en el clavo This album got that heat
We switch it up on every song like tia pelucas
With santana machita and Tito Fuente influence
Your gonna love this like maarimar love Sergio
Man this song soundas like el chacon had clones
All they ever teach is Chavez in our history class
And unlike the cucaracha there’s some change in this fact
No use in crying over milk that’s spilt on the mat
They say Canta y no LLores i decided to rap
I hope you caught that like copa y bola
These rhymes are real like Mexican soda
Pegale patras ni pa coger impulso
This is the cure for your mind like mental menudo
You can have this daily not just the fin de semana
Porque yo lo digo like you heard from your mama
And we got that in common my mom said that phrase to
And she made me promise that I would tell the truth
No sugar coating like fresh baked pan
Ill teach you Aztecs and Simon Bolivar
Zoot Suit Riots and yes there’s mas
I’m Vicente with the lyrics El Rey with the bars
