Armada Latina

Marc Anthony · Other Songs - Marc Anthony

Ay Caribe la tierra de mi gente hermosa

(Armada Latina)

Cielo y sol, me acompañan donde quiera

(Mi fama in prada)

Hermanito la lucha recien empieza

(Hermano ponle gana)

Yo nací con sangre taina, yo nací



Came out the other man, southern land

Didn't have another hand

Never had another plan

I'm different to the mother land



Some will get a summer tan

It's hotter than a summer jam

Live for today 'cause you'll

Never gettin' another chance



I ain't trippin' off the

He say and she say

'Cause we say fuck off

And pass me a cuba libre



That's what we want, don't front

I could see you but

You don't want to see the cohi upfront

How we blow it up



We came to blow it up

Hit the spot so we're done

Rappers in, blowin' up

That's how we show the love



That's how we pass up all this shit

That we've overcome

It's like the soldier's run is done

When the war's won



Ay Caribe la tierra de mi gente hermosa

(Armada Latina)

Cielo y sol, me acompañan donde quiera

(Mi fama in prada)

Hermanito la lucha recien empieza

(Hermano ponle gana)

Yo nací con sangre taina, yo nací



Latino hasta la muerte

Chicos, they working hard

'Bout the noise

Suerte gracias a Dios, thank God



Little Cuban from Miami

Coulda took that coke route

Marinero balsero con clinicas

Santero con muera



Que dicen que pueden curar la abuela

Ya'll like Scarface, I'm more like Sosa

Cypress Hill, pretty flaco

It's our culture



From Cali to the crib, crib

Me in Miami

Thank God, I'm doin' music

If not, I'd be turning families



I'm not an asshole

(Oh, no)

About my cash flow

Let me take this shit

And send this letter to Castro

Ha, ha, ha, Dale



Ay Caribe la tierra de mi gente hermosa

(Armada Latina)

Cielo y sol, me acompañan donde quiera

(Mi fama in prada)

Hermanito la lucha recien empieza

(Hermano ponle gana)

Yo nací con sangre taina, yo nací



We way too hot

Always comin' up with something clever

Our Costa Nostra

Cypress Hill, maca fella



Feelin' fancy in the hip throne

Guayabera

And we just clowning

On what we call some, honey-lera



Call me Sammy

Wild child from the isles

I can go forever like an

Old fashioned country mouse



Stilo be guajiro

Latino is the lingo

I'm straight cubanichi

I bang Pinar del Rio



Lockin' up this function

Just like Banimo

They go ahead and play the chongas

And I'm gonna rap over it



Ya, I'm a fool I'm outta here

Yes, sir, I gotta go

Get me some chibirica

And slap me some dominoes



Ay Caribe la tierra de mi gente hermosa

(Armada Latina)

Cielo y sol, me acompañan donde quiera

(Mi fama in prada)

Hermanito la lucha recien empieza

(Hermano ponle gana)

Yo nací con sangre taina, yo nací
