They said “man, you won’t have it on our streets”
“This city is too full to feed someone like you, see?”
But you know, I’ve seen too much to give a fuck to what they think
You know, I come from tough and this much won’t stop me
They said “we’re already in crisis, get back to your rat hole”
But I learned from my household that no one’s inferior
You know, I’ve seen too much to give a fuck to what they think
You know, I come from tough and this much won’t stop me
O-o-oh

O-o-oh, o-o-oh, a-ahn
O-o-oh, o-o-oh, a-ahn
I’ve seen too much now
To keep my head down
I prefer to earn my crown
I’ve just seen too much now
To keep my head down

They said “man, you’re crazy, there you are prone to prosper”
But my dream’s bigger than mediocre, proper
You know, I’ve seen too much to give a fuck to what you think
You know, I come from tough and this much won’t stop me
They said “you can’t solve a thing, you’re a problem”
“You stand for nothing at all, you’re the fallen”
But you know, I’ve heard this thing too many times, shit, can you believe it?
And I can prove you wrong time after time, can’t you see it?
O-o-oh

O-o-oh, o-o-oh, a-ahn
O-o-oh, o-o-oh, a-ahn
I’ve seen too much now
To keep my head down
I prefer to earn my crown
I’ve just seen too much now
To keep my head down

I've Seen Too Much

David Dines is a Sao Paulo-based singer, songwriter and producer. Born in the city of Belo Horizonte, this restless Gemini comes from a nomadic family that moved across Brazil for generations. This background fed the artist’s desire to bend different cultures and make them dialogue through music. On record and live, David Dines enables a synergy between a classic pop vibe and the tropical sounds of Brazil, in the center of other cross-genre experiments. The core of the work is built by stories of struggle, desire, longing and empathy, that find their way through smooth, melodic vocals and throbbing beats. Both as artist and individual, David Dines’ stance is that of underlining a possible connection between tenderness and obstinacy.
