OneYearWarMusic – Alright, let’s dive into the melodic world of “Nada De Nada” by Marc Anthony! This Latin pop gem has been a crowd-pleaser since its release, and I can’t help but groove along every time I hear it. As a fellow music enthusiast and globe-trotter, let me break down the lyrics and share my personal connection to this infectious tune.
Lyrics
Mass hysteria and false accusation
Our strange domination got no explanation
As fear plagues the nation your whole congregation
Say they should be caged in these women of Satan!
Yes there's masturbation, some ego inflation
But really it shadows just congregating
So act on temptation and live by sensation
This is the reason you came to creation
Rise up oh flame, come join the game
They started a frenzy but we'll take the blame
A bare-chested dame, who goes by no name
Their arsenal's empty, all they got is shame
Same old energy baby, history repeats
Same old energy baby, they'll march you through the streets
Same old energy baby, they fear what they don't know
Same old energy baby, you've burned this way before
It's your own damn fault boy, you handed us the broom
400 years ago sayin' 'you know what to do
Yes sir we do, beep, beep coming through
Close ya damn mouth my man, I told you we flew
She seethes, waits, legs bent to pounce
Schemes laughs, rolls up, and ounce
We were just trying to heal, just tryna survive
A woman with magic is fine with him if
That magic is between her thighs
Rise up oh flame, come join the game
They started a frenzy but we'll take the blame
A bare-chested dame, who goes by no name
Their arsenal's empty, all they got is shame
Same old energy baby, history repeats
Same old energy baby, they'll march you through the streets
Same old energy baby, they fear what they don't know
Same old energy baby, you've burned this way before
How dare a girl defy the man disturbing all the peace
They'll cuss you in the lights but cry your name between their sheets
A healing touch, a naked breast, sage and skin of snake
No matter what the good you did, you'll wind up at the stake
She's a highway wreck but you can't look away
Might haunt you for days, and yet your eyes stay
On her sweet flesh right where shoulder meets wing
On the burnt grass everywhere she has been
Rise up oh flame, come join the game
They started a frenzy but we'll take the blame
A bare-chested dame, who goes by no name
Their arsenal's empty, all they got is shameThe Song’s Vibe

Me importa la gente mala
