"Dennis era um jovem mais de sensibilidade que de sentimento. Vivera vinte e oito anos a distância da violência, mas pertencia a uma geração que gozara por procuração uma intimidade com a morte. Nunca, com efeito, vira um cadáver até essa manhã em que, regressando cansado do serviço nocturno, encontrara o seu hospedeiro pendendo do vigamento. O espectáculo fora brutal e momentaneamente impressionante; mas a razão aceitou o facto como parte da ordem estabelecida.

(...)

O seu derradeiro assomo de vaidade era que dissessem dele: - É um rapaz de outro tempo... (...) Tinha de si próprio sempre a ideia do que momentaneamente era, ruminava gostamente as várias excelências e inchava.

(...)

- Pois agora houve mudanças de políticas. Só fazemos filmes sadios este ano, para agradar à Liga da Decência. (...) - Ah - disse ele -, filmes sadios. Isso é comigo. Ainda no Clube dos Bons Garfos eu afirmei: «Sempre me guiei por dois princípios na vida de cinema: nunca fazer diante da objectiva o que não faríamos em casa e nunca fazer em casa o que não faríamos perante a objectiva».

LOCAL TIME...

(LP December 99th, 2017)

Yasiin Bey, uma sombra na escuridão | Crítica | PÚBLICO (publico.pt)

Fresh dates, warm plates

What's great, Alhamdulillah

Life is great

The night prowl, feel it in the night air

Fresh rain fall, it's the right air

The waves right here

We experience tests today

Above all, we got blessed today

Same as every day

In a special way

The 99, 9999

99999

Local time

99, 9999

99999

The local time is now

Whoever you are, no matter, no how

The moon and the waves, the breeze and the clouds

Wherever you are, the local time is

99, 9999

99999

Ask the master

99, 9999

99999

No greater love

Say you love it

No one will let you go

Can't run from it

No other place to go

hate

Here's looking at you, kid

Let me tell you what I hate, everything I ain't

Everything I’ve done, everything I break

I hate the way that you were saying I'd be great, straight

Let me tell you what I love, that there's no one above

The thought: "It is what it is"

Shit, same thought, it was what it was

Yeah, I’m like the dove that had flew too close to the Sun

And he knew deep down there was nothing he could do

It's fuckеd because the Sun was you

But still I tеll you what I hate, though

The same fellas getting bodied by the plain clothes

The same niggas that would follow under rainbows

The very same boys that would follow on the way home

Yeah, either your jacket or your raincoat

Tryna take suttin' that ain't dope, it's painful

At times I wish I had a guardian angel

To help me with the brothers, that's shameful

But still I love the rainfall

I love the fact that they're so fucking grateful

I love the fact that my plate's full

I love the money in my bank, it’s disgraceful, so many zeroes

I’ve brushed shoulders with so many heroes

I lost count, still hold those dineros

Tryna say suttin', my ears closed

I fear those lost in the past living on the recline

The same look up in their eyes if they’re borrowing time

It's nine lives, on the eight, see the finishing line

It's right there on the horiz... couldn't finish the rhyme

I hate time, I said I fucking hate time
