"In case you ain't know, I go by the name of Akon and I'm from home of the Goree Islands: I'm from Senegal, West side
So I'ma share with you where I'm from and how I was comin' up
So what you know about the struggles that my people went through? So you can live the way you live now? So what you know about seeing that brand new mother givin' away her newborn child? So what you know about Mr. Amadou Diallo, the senegalese cop shot down? So what you know about how people love to perceive us when we come into a brand new town? So what you know about the Goree Islands where all the slaves were shipped from? What you know about being born in America to avoid immigration?
Still from the ghetto of Senegal
Comin' from the ghetto of Senegal, comin' from the ghetto of Senegal: yes, I'm comin' from the ghetto of Senegal
So what you know about Tchebou Dje Yassa, Deraay and Maafay, my favorite foods? So what you know about niggas throwin' rocks, bustin' shots at the military invadin' my hood? So what you know about kids with automatic machines waiting for the war to get on that side? So what you know about how God comes first in our lives (everything that we do is for Allah)? So what you know about that holy place called Touba where Prophets were born? So what you know about comin' here, gettin' money and investing it back home?
Right in the ghetto of Senegal
Give it to the ghetto of Senegal, take it to the ghetto of Senegal, send it right to the ghetto of Senegal
Now see that's just a little piece of how it is... see, but we can come together and make it 'lot better back home
So don't complain about how they treat me here, take your millions of dollars there, back to...
We own that land, we owned those diamonds
We kings, man, we don't take orders, we give 'em
Think about it."
"Mi sono fatto quasi tutto il tour con le tue canzoni la mattina. Ti amo."
Risi.
"È sarcasmo?"
"No no, sono serio."
Mi rispose. Mi prese il viso tra le mani e mi guardò dritto negli occhi.
"Ti amo, Sara."

You & Me || Jared Leto
FanfictionQuesto libro è la cosa più personale che io sia mai riuscita a tirare fuori da dentro di me. È sulla vita che sogno di avere, il mio piccolo mondo che darei l'anima se solo potessi farlo diventare realtà. E poi c'è lui: Jared Leto, quell'uomo che se...
