Columbus Lyrics

[Chorus: Anik Khan]
Loading up the ship to roll
Riding every wave I know
This by any means, any time
Even if it's yours I'll take your spot and make it mine
Bitch I'm Columbus

[Verse 1: Anik Khan]
You never liked us in the first place
Never wanted us to win
Took us from our homes, put us on a boat
Left with us to cope with nothing but your sins
There's blood on the leaves and blood on your hands
You brought us disease and left us with angst
You showed no remorse, you gave us no chance
We showed you the world and this was your thanks
America was made from black backs and brown shoulders
Yellow and beige arms, we brought culture
We brought order, we brought fortune, we crossed oceans and taught for ya
No shit, we did all that, still you forced us to foreclosure
The borders, you cut us deep, then you cut corners­ now hold up
See you standing on cold corpses, but their souls are sewed in my garments

[Pre Chorus: Anik Khan]
Little did you know we would make it on our own
Built it with our bones­ yeah
Look at how we've grown­ yeah

Little did you know we would make this shit our home
Built it with our bones­ yeah
Look at how we've grown­

[Chorus: Anik Khan]
Loading up the ship to roll
Riding every wave I know
This by any means, any time
Even if it's yours I'll take your spot and make it mine
Bitch I'm Columbus

[Verse 2: Anik Khan]
This shit is ridiculous Columbus
You did this, you did this Columbus
Now as God as my witness, we took what you did and made this shit a business Columbus
I hope you know that I'm grateful Columbus
The curry in my pot is tasteful Columbus
You made up the game but we played you Columbus
So how can I hate you, I made you Columbus
Now I'm Columbus
Taking what's mine without the repercussions and light up the function
I like to feel right, I don't like your assumptions
Don't light me the blunt and let me get to fussing
Bitch I came up from nothing
I'll end your whole life with discussion­
The whole time with percussion

[Pre Chorus: Anik Khan]
Little did you know we would make it on our own
Built it with our bones­ yeah
Look at how we've grown­ yeah

Little did you know we would make this shit our home Built it with our bones­ yeah
Look at how we've grown­

[Chorus: Anik Khan]
Loading up the ship to roll
Riding every wave I know
This by any means, any time
Even if it's yours I'll take your spot and make it mine
Bitch I'm Columbus

[Outro: Spoken Words In Bangla]
(তোমাকে) ভেবেছি কতদিন
কত শত্রুর পদক্ষেপ শোনার প্রতীক্ষার অবসরে
কত গোলা ফাটার মুহূর্তে।
কতবার অবাধ্য হয়েছে মন, যুদ্ধজয়ের ফাঁকে ফাঁকে
(কতবার হৃদয় জ্বলেছে অনুশোচনার অঙ্গারে)
তোমার আর তোমাদের ভাবনায়।
তোমাকে ফেলে এসেছি দারিদ্র্যের মধ্যে
ছুঁড়ে দিয়েছি দুর্ভিক্ষের আগুনে
(ঝড়ে আর বন্যায়,) মারী আর মড়কের দুঃসহ আঘাতে
বাব বার বিপন্ন হয়েছে তোমাদের অস্তিত্ব।
আর আমি ছুটে গেছি এক যুদ্ধক্ষেত্র থেকে আর এক যুদ্ধক্ষেত্রে।
জানি না আজো, আছ কি নেই
(দুর্ভিক্ষে ফাঁকা আর বন্যায় তলিয়ে গেছে কিনা ভিটে
জানি না তাও।)

তবু লিখছি তোমাকে আজ : লিখছি আত্মম্ভর আশায়
ঘরে ফেরার সময় এসে গেছে।
জানি, আমার জন্যে কেউ প্রতীক্ষা ক'রে নেই
মালায় আর পতাকায়, প্রদীপে আর মঙ্গলঘটে;
জানি, সম্বর্ধনা রটবে না লোক মুখে
মিলিত খুশিতে মিলবে না বীরত্বের পুরস্কার।
[echoes and fades away]
