Here there is no sadness

Their spirits dance together

Spirits dancing among the people

(Chali's Rap)
As sure as your heart muscle rests in your chest cavity
We ask God to bless these festivities
Yet, this hostility felt between you and me stops
Opportunity given to spread unity
2na be rhythmically wiping sadness clear
Reggae cumbia mixtures create this atmosphere
People packin' cheer simply cuz these songs show depth
Giving shouts to these victims of wrongful death
Now, soon as we're rid of society's small terrors
The sooner these teenagers don't have to be pallbearers
And carry their pals nearer to graves premature the cure
Be mature by keeping you hearts pure
