Tomato and Tomahto
The great communicator
and my motto, it takes two to tango
Rudabaga winnebago
When we let go of the middle ground
and then you
Hear the echo
All the syllables will suffer and
Start missing one another
Undercover, innuendo
That is word to the mother
And a word you'll discover
From another countries mothertongue
Ends up being one
Similar to where you're comin from
Language is a branch from a tree of conundrums
and slang is what get when encryption becomes undone
Yo i´m losing my train of thought
With screws loose and you forgot
Hook
Ange da Costa
At the beginning was the word
The mountains, valleys and seas
We’re all created with words
God you are our creator
Keep an eye on your children
and bring us together with this melody
Shtuka:
I return that shit back to get stuff off my chest
the life that I spit over the track is the only one I know of
with my hand around the globe, every city, every stage
You're an MC when you understand that rap knows no borders
from the streets of Sarajevo I toast tonight to everyone
the crews around the world - we're more than crowded parks
i bring rap back to the corner, back to the cassete player
so forget everything and let yourself go to the rhythm
Kontra:
Be there when it happens, rap is more than songs
so ask yourself "where am I" and what do I represent to the world
more than cheering and applauding, be a part of the story and represent
that's the only way you're gonna save rap from eternal extinction
my part is to follow the tact, make a pact with my brothers around the world
tonight we're here together, let's make a toast tonight
blazed mic, hands in the air, eternally a part of the pulse
never give up on the dream, rhythm - rhyme - heart – soul

At the beginning was the word
The mountains, valleys and seas
We’re all created with words
God you are our creator
Keep an eye on your children
and bring us together with this melody
Shtuka & Kontra Together:
from Sarajevo to the world, for every street corner
for everyone who believes this is more than just music
from the cold chambers where you think rap is dead
best regards to loyal hip hoppers, with respect - kontra - shtuka
Sister Fa
Sometimes I’m asking myself "God, have you forgotten me?"
You’ve let me down with all of my problems
Every day I’m everything but nothing seems to work out,
i can´t go anywhere, i can´t do anything, even what i´m saying is wrong to the stronger ones
I come from Casamamce in a hard life and i fixed myself to work hard for a better future
I come from far away and i´m trying to exchange my culture, to work!
But your place is not easy to get
Let us pray to god for more tolerance, we are the same where is the difference

Ange da Costa
At the beginning was the word
The mountains, valleys and seas
We’re all created with words
God you are our creator
Keep an eye on your children
and bring us together with this melody
