Lyrics:
My theory is
If ya got rhythm in your bones
Then baby, ya got rhythm in ya flow

Canyengue, lo tengo, te quemo
Soy chica de hierro
Canyengue, lo tengo, te quemo
con chispas de mi fuego
(X2)

I’m Audax
Imma awe you with my syntax
Sit back
Get attached, relax
This is not a verbal attack
Let’s chit chat
Gonna spit that
Brainy, bold, bright flow
Solid sass
In silky tones
Stronger than your cologne
Hotter than the ozone
My rap can rip right to the bone
I keep my rhymes tight get it golden
Embolden the poetry
I don’t condone
Rhythmless flow
Just know I grow
I stick to the beat
or ride syncopated cadence
Not a blow to the slow mo
I don’t have patience
For waiting is all I’m saying
Okay? One can’t be slaying
when delaying rhymes
To the wrong times
What a crime
I got tigress marks embedded
like embroidery on my hips
I’m in the sun
while I’m listening to Big Pun
I’m not done, I’m not gonna run
Gonna move my
body to the drum

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Gonna coast on toasty sentences
that roast the brain to cinders
Float on vocal embers
Stepping to the heat of timbre
Whispering to my feet,
the beat completes
the rhythm in my winter
The water in my river
The wisdom in my center
I’m on a mission
Gonna listen to my intuition
My disposition
I don’t need no one’s permission

Chorus:
You don’t have to be afraid
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Mostra tu canyengue, nena
(X2)

No need to be ashamed
No need to be ashamed

Cuando camino por la calle, tengo tumbao
Y por eso mi mamá me dice “tenga cuidao”
Canyengue, lo tengo en las caderas
Canyengue, lo tengo en las caderas
Sensualidad.

Exuding that is what I do.
If it’s too much for you,
Then leave me be
Cuz I ain’t got time to lose

Chorus:
You don’t have to be afraid
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Mostra tu canyengue, nena
(X2)

No need to be ashamed
No need to be ashamed

No, no, no
No, no, no

No need to be ashamed
