Karmageddon by IYAH MAY
I open up my phone on a Monday morning
Staring at my screen I′m tired and a little lonely
Mr Musk he says some shit the lefts are angry
Twitter wars and Gaza man it’s overwhelming
Maybe that′s how life becomes when
People less important than a profit line
No one cares about your dreams
Just pay your tax on time
Keep scrolling
Hold me near to you now
Gender, guns, religion and abortion rights
You better pick a tribe
And hate the other side
Keep Scrolling
But did you see Taylor live?
Man made virus watch the millions die
Biggest profit of their lives
Here’s inflation that’s your prize
This is Karmageddon
Turn on the news and eat their lies
Kim or Kanye pick a side
Cancel culture what a vibe
This is Karmageddon
Corporations swear they never lie
Politicians bribed for life
More than war it′s genocide
This is Karmageddon
Welcome to the chaos of the times
If you go left and I go right
Pray we make it out alive
This is Karmageddon
It′s fashion week celebs lose ribs
Balenciaga how’s the kids
Just ask Drake he′s losing beef
Kendrick killed him in his sleep
Diss tracks about beating up your queen
While women dying doesn’t cause a scene
While we′re fed all these distractions
Kids are killed from Israel’s actions
I′mma speak my mind
Sick to death of all these crazy lies
A circus for humanity’s decline
We just want a peaceful life
Give the people back their rights
And I’ve still got a beef
Cause Fauci′s laughing and we′ve been asleep
And WHO’s a liar and it′s running deep
Big pharma finna eat they a devil make them weak
Man made virus watch the millions die
Biggest profit of their lives
Here’s inflation that′s your prize
This is Karmageddon
Turn on the news and eat their lies
Kim or Kanye pick a side
Cancel culture what a vibe
This is Karmageddon
Corporations swear they never lie
Politicians bribed for life
More than war it’s genocide
This is Karmageddon
Welcome to the chaos of the times
If you go left and I go right
Pray we make it out alive
This is Karmageddon

IYAH ist ein kleiner Sturkopf und ein Querdenker. Ihr Plattenboss bat sie, dass sie den Text in diesem Lied ein wenig ändern möge, doch sie lehnte ab. Daraufhin kündigte ihr Boss ihren Vertrag. Ihr Statement dazu: “I won’t dilute my art and what I believe in. No chance. These lyrics are from a real and deep part of me and if it means being polarising then so be it. I’ll do it on my own if I have to.”
Übersetzungsversuch: „Ich werde meine Kunst und das, woran ich glaube, nicht weichspülen. Keine Chance. Diese Texte kommen aus meinem tiefsten Inneren und wenn sie nicht jedem gefallen, dann ist mir das egal. Wenn es nicht anders geht, dann mache ich diesen Song eben alleine.“
Eigentlich hasse ich ja diese Querdenker…
Karmageddon ist eine neue Wortkreation aus Karma und Armageddon
