Payze aka Payday Monsanto ft Lewka (June 2002)

Alais Clay 2010

I am a holy spirit /  I am made of stardust
 I came here with my warriors and no ones gonna stop us
 An infinite flood of light doing away with darkness
 Pushing through illusions with the revolution started

I'm an artist -when it comes to my mind, I push the hardest
I am one on one and face to face with monsters in my closet
I am still growing,  been through hell but i kept going
and the strength that it has given me, myself don't even know it 

Im about to blow / showing the world how I came forward
Through the thick and thin / always a pen and I rained poems
I abstain from, who or whatever keep me away from
Knowing I am on my path & I ain't gonna stray from

Stay strong / if the day come / I remain calm
Daily in a heavy meditation I attain calm
Chains gone / all the weight lifts when I blaze ganj
Give thanks to Mama Earth for everything she gave for me
 
{ch.}
hey yo - if you feel me let me hear u say so
if you on the level then i wanna hear your take on
hey yo - if you feel me let me hear u say so
if you on the level then i wanna hear your take on
days gone by / and the feelings getting stronger
tryin not blow but i can't hold it any longer
hey yo - if you feel me let me hear u say so
if you on the level then i wanna hear your take on
 
ven aqui, respete si venis, no toques mi microfono con nada que decir, 
listo? capish?  me repito? entendiste?  
cansada de estos perros escupiendome lo mismo
furiosa / mira lo que hicieron con mi Diosa
la degradaron a un punto que ni ella se conoce
y mi voz / reflejo de todo que ella esconde
historia, miseria, sonrisas y canciones

i'ma let go / light up the sky like a supernova
ima keep flowing / water my seed till my trees growin
with my beats goin moving my feet to something sweet for em
dancing to the rhythm of the seasons like the seashores

I stay raw / Higher Self knows what i came for
I look to the brightest star & that is where I aim towards
Pray for love to prevail on Earth & beyond
I want to leave knowing I made a difference when I'm gone

Im gonna live on / Im gonna leave legacy of songs 
and one day the revolution will be 7 billion strong
when that days comes, shine, and the wicked ones run
like vampires hiding from the rising sun

{ch.}

que piensas? en serio, como estas? 
me siento que a veces estoy moviendo para atras
como hace el mar / baja y regresa sin parar
por eternidad, ofreciendo lagrimas de sal


I am not done, in fact, I've just begun
from this moment on, me and my dreams are now one
now i come with the thunder, rage like the storm
brave like a young lion hanging on its own
with my vigil on, will strong / mission always on
& no matter how my day looks my work is never done
gotta keep truckin - gotta up my production
these 2 hands forever making something outta nothing
like our will does / making matter out of atoms
like our mind does/ making moments out of patterns
like our grind does / when our energy is focused
and our time goes / like the growing of the lotus
{ch.}

   I am a holy spirit / i am made of stardust
 I came here with my warriors and no ones gonna stop us
 An infinite flood of light doing away with darkness
 Pushing through illusions with the revolution started

Days fly by like the birds by the ocean 

Dream grows strong - I can feel it growing

Known all along that I'd reach this moment

and yes, I am certain I've been here before

I had a dream i was walking to the gallows

Woke up talking revolution with my shadow

Left the house looking like I'm prepped for battle 

Maybe cuz my insides are waging war

One side saying, "Everythings ok child"

Other side saying. "But you know its not now"

Which you gonna listen to? How you gonna stop them?

Are you gonna snap like you did before?


Voz dice, "Hija, mantega calma,
Mira aqui estoy y no me quita nadie
Donde seas que camines yo estoy contigo
Cuando tengas duda vaya con la brisa"

Ive fallen to my knees 
at the beauty of these realms
I've sung songs, possessed by Spirit
Overwhelmed
I have heard a billion children crying in the distance
I've seen the way our silence breeds acceptance
So here I am / giving power to my voice
Babylon's towers have no hold upon my voice
 I'm gonna lift it up from shore to shore
with God as witness till I breathe no more
but when I bless these tracks I live forever
Our search for peace is a steady endeavor
I'll be trudging through the mud with boots on
and when I'm sure its time ; i'll kick my boots off 

{ch.}

voz dice hija mantega calma
mira aqui estoy y no me quita nadie
donde seas que camines yo estoy contigo
cuando tengas duda vaya con la brisa
escuchale a los pajaros ; mueves como nubes
yo estoy cuando bajas ; yo estoy cuando subes
yo soy la tierra en cual tu caminas
yo soy el agua que tomas y orinas
yo soy el arbol que da en abundancia
y yo soy la piedra que toma tu sangre
yo soy la hambre que sienten los ninos
y ahora soy yo que ayuda te pide"

Now with my family I chant down walls
I was just a girl when i heard this call
Days fly by & the dream grows stronger
I'm like a stone being shaped by the water

Es que siento fuerte un fuego anciano
Tengo milliones de bendiciones en mis manos
Gotas caen como las lagrimas de Dios
Su sentido, reflado por mi voz

Nothing you could say could make me switch my position
I'm strong force, a visionary on a mission
What I long for is a safe place for the children
Where we grow our own food and we build our own village

Donde tenemos todo que nececitamos
y tomo de una copa que yo hice con mis manos 
Donde gotas caen como lagrimas de dios
Una forma de tocar tu corazon
Como las flores creciendo en tu camino
No te piden nada menos que no las olvides
pero ya tu sabes, nada dura para siempre y
No hay manana, sino ahora solamente

{ch.}

Perfect Timing


Born in Barranquilla, Colombia in 1985 & raised in Miami, FL, Alais Clay brings a powerful voice to hip-hop that you would not expect from the sweet, soft-spoken soul you meet in person. With a heavy emphasis on speaking her truth, Alais rains fire on the mic with hard-hitting lyrics of social, spiritual & often political nature. In these critical times when corruption, war, deception & complacency are so widespread; and the mainstream media seems only to serve the interests of major corporations, a brave legacy of truth-seekers emerges from the masses to share their gift of story-telling with the world - Alais Clay is amongst these, and these are all battle cries for the Revolution. Sure to go down in history along with McAD & Linguistory of Wandering Monks, Ampkilla, Payday Monsanto, KRS-One & Immortal Technique.. the warriors of Truth Hop cannot be stopped! After decades and centuries have passed, these songs will live on as a testament to the transformational power of the human spirit and its ongoing battle against the corrupt machine. Love prevails!
