english: Because the English language is a multifaceted oration Subject to indefinite transformation Now you may think that it is ignorant to speak broken English But I’m here to tell you that even “articulate” Americans sound foolish to the British So when my Professor comes on the block and says, “Hello” I stop him and say “Noooo … You’re being inarticulate … the proper way is to say ‘what’s good’” Now you may think that’s too hood, that’s not cool But I’m here to tell you that even our language has rules So when Mommy mocks me and says “ya’ll-be-madd-going-to-the-store” I say “Mommy, no, that sentence is not following the law Never does the word "madd" go  before a present participle That’s simply the principle of this English” If I had the vocal capacity I would sing this from every mountaintop, From every suburbia, and every hood ‘Cause the only God of language is the one recorded in the Genesis Of this world saying “it is good" So I may not always come before you with excellency of speech But do not judge me by my language and assume That I’m too ignorant to teach ‘Cause I speak three tongues One for each: Home, school and friends I’m a tri-lingual orator Sometimes I’m consistent with my language now Then switch it up so I don’t bore later Sometimes I fight back two tongues While I use the other one in the classroom And when I mistakenly mix them up I feel crazy like … I’m cooking in the bathroom I know that I had to borrow your language because mines was stolen But you can’t expect me to speak your history wholly while mines is broken These words are spoken By someone who is simply fed up with the Eurocentric ideals of this season And the reason I speak a composite version of your language Is because mines was raped away along with my history I speak broken English so the profusing gashes can remind us That our current state is not a mystery I’m so tired of the negative images that are driving my people mad So unless you’ve seen it rob a bank stop calling my hair bad I’m so sick of this nonsensical racial disparity So don’t call it good unless your hair is known for donating to charity As much as has been raped away from our people How can you expect me to treat their imprint on your language As anything less than equal Let there be no confusion Let there be no hesitation This is not a promotion of ignorance This is a linguistic celebration That’s why I put "tri-lingual" on my last job application I can help to diversify your consumer market is all I wanted them to know And when they call me for the interview I’ll be more than happy to show that I can say: “What’s good” “Whatagwan” And of course …“Hello” Because I’m “articulate” Thank you.
non_english: Engleski jezik je višesložni jezik podložan stalnim promenama Sada, možda mislite da je  neznalica onaj ko govori šatrovačkim Ali ja sam ovde da bih vam rekla da i "razgovetni" Amerikanci zvuče blesavo Britancima Stoga kada moj profesor dođe  u blok i kaže "Zdravo" Ja ga zaustavim i kažem "Neeee... Vi ste nerazgovetni... pravilno je reći 'š'a ima'" Sada, možda mislite da zvučim kao klinja iz kraja, to nije kul Ali sam ovde da vam kažem da i naš jezik ima pravila I kada me mama zadirkuje i kaže "ti si luda ako ćeš ići u tu radnju" Ja kažem: "Mamice, ne,  ta rečenica ne prati pravila nikada pridev "lud" ne ide  ispred sadašnjeg participa To je jednostavno pravilo ovog engleskog" Kada bih imala vokalne mogućnosti, pevala bih ovo sa vrha bilo koje planine Iz svakog predgrađa, iz svakog kraja "Jer samo je Bog jezika taj  koji je zapisan u knjizi Postanja ovoga sveta govoreći "dobro je" Stoga, možda neću uvek stati ispred vas Sa savršenim govorom ali nemojte mi suditi na osnovu mog jezika i zaključiti da sam neznalica da predajem Jer ja pričam tri jezika jedan za svaki od ovih: kuću, školu i prijatelje Ja sam trojezični govornik Ponekada se držim pravila kao sad onda se prebacim da mi  kasnije ne bi dosadilo Ponekada se borim sa dva jezika dok koristim onaj treći u učionici i onda ih greškom pomešam I osećam se ludo kao da kuvam u kupatilu Znam da moram pozajmiti od vašeg jezika jer su moji ukradeni Ali ne očekujte da govorim o vašoj istoriji u potpunosti kada je moja slomljena Ove reči je izgovorio neko kome su prekipeli evrocentrički ideali ove sezone I razlog zbog koga ja pričam izmenjenom verzijom vašeg jezika je taj što je moj razaran tokom istorije Govorim oštećenim engleskim  da bi nas duboke rane podsetile na trenutno stanje koje nije misterija Toliko sam se umorila od ružnih slika koje izluđuju moje ljude I osim ako je ne vidite da pljačka banku, ne govorite kako mi je frizura loša Toliko mi je muka od ovih  besmislenih rasnih razlika I nemojte je zvati dobrim,  ukoliko je vaša kosa poznata po doniranju dobrotvornim ustanovama Jer koliko god je bio izmučen jezik naših ljudi Kako možete da očekujete da se ponašam prema njihovom tragu na vašem jeziku kao bilo čemu što je manje od ravnopravnog Hajde da ne bude zabune Hajde da ne bude oklevanja Ovo nije promovisanje neznanja Ovo je lingvističko slavlje Zato sam stavila "trojezični govornik" na mojoj najskorijoj prijavi za posao Pomažem da se razlikuje vaše kupovno tržište i to je sve što sam htela da oni znaju I kada me pozovu na razgovor rado bih pokazala da mogu da kažem: "Š'a ima" "Š'a bilo" i naravno "Zdravo" Jer ja sam "razgovetna" Hvala.
