The Flame |
| From the streets of Jamaica coming live and direct |
| Proto Diggy deh ya we nuh need no mic check |
| Step inna the place no badda disrespect |
| Just a warn the Ghetto yutes about the choice wah dem a make BOOM |
| La-di-da-di naa join nuh party |
| Look what the politician them do to Claudie |
| Look what the politician them do to Jim |
| Him son resurrect it and look wah them do to him |
| Cah them will use and dispose of you those who are close to you |
| If you choose to trod this road u nuh |
| So bredda bredda if you war tonight |
| Carry the scars of a Garveyite |
| Carry the fire of a Melchezidek |
| When you mind get a chance represent |
| Or you might a no pass the present so |
| No take them class love you fast then resent you |
| Want make it fast so them lost every cent too |
| So we go back to the ancient ways untold secrets that remained unchanged |
| Mentally get unchained a one goal a one aim a the same wah you saying |
| Got to stay through to the things you know are right |
| Nothing worth the gain you attain by sudden flight |
| Brother keep you goals in sight (true, true) |
| Even in the darkest night |
| Have faith in the father the one who shines your light |
| A palace pikney a, uh |
| Mercy me dem corrupt and covetous eeh |
| Cah from me eye deh a me knee a one thing natty a see |
| The intellect a prey upon the poor poverty |
| Nobody nah dance to a two party |
| Oppression brainwashing and nefarious schemes |
| To keep the have-nots where they think they ought to be |
| I man hear promises of better when the poll time close |
| Then a back to the same after winner announce |
| Rockstone a river bottom never know say sun hot |
| So many a me brother them trap inna the plot |
| Glock full a shot but no food inna pot |
| A wa wa wah kinda livity that |
| I an I a holla straight up wake up Sons of Jacob |
| Lay down their arms real tools you fi take up |
| Stay up way up sons of Jacob time to show the cowards what we made of |
| Got to stay through to the things you know are right |
| Nothing worth the gain you attain by sudden flight |
| Sister keep you goals in sight |
| Even in the darkest night |
| Have faith in the father the one who shines your light |
| So you’ve made it |
| Tell me what’s the basis |
| Thinking its so basic |
| Cruising in the A6 |
| Naa thats an illusion in the matrix |
| When you miss the payments then they gon' come and claim it |
| You haffi be focused keep the brain fit |
| Keep the flame lit |
| Never twist it when you aim it |
| So what I’m saying simple and it plain it all look the same when it flushing |
| down the drain |
| Watch dem as dem strutting up the lane with the rope gold chain |
| Chrome suppin in a hand |
| Look up pon dem face touch a button if you can |
| Just fi try take you place a no nothing fi dem man |
| But that no matter cause another come along |
| And a run the place badder, hotter than the summer sun |
| Boof, I see the cycle a repeat playing god up in your palace |
| With disciples pon the street |
| Ease! |
| Got to stay through to the things you know are right |
| Nothing worth the gain you attain by sudden flight |
| Sister keep you goals in sight |
| Even in the darkest night |
| Have faith in the father the one who shines your light |
