Lyrics Red - Alborosie

Red

Selassie guide my steps, yeah
Inna Babylon yeah-oh
Inna Babylon whoa-oh
Albo say
Red, the place a run red
And right yah now it a get inna me head
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
Oh, oh, oh, don’t pressure me, Dread
Me nah pick no ear from the devil’s head
Talking 'bout though and a talking 'bout dread
Fowl a fight over piece a cornbread
Innocence always a join the bloodshed
I pray for Paris and I must pray for me
Pray for America, Syria and the East
Pray for the angels and pray for the beast
'Cause every soul is a victim inna this
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
And right yah now it a get inna me head
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
Oh, oh, oh, oh, don’t pressure me, Dread
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
And right yah now it a get inna me head
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
Whoa oh, oh, oh, don’t pressure me, Dread
Sound like this, small axe a cut the big tree
'Mongst the war monger there’s no partiality
Evil intention, extreme mentality
Carry this world to a high mortality
A general cause for a panic attack
Terrorized faces a walk 'round the block
Tension go up like a boiling pot
Bucket too full, so the bottom a go drop
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
And right yah now it a get inna me head
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
Whoa oh, oh, oh, don’t pressure me, Dread
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
And right yah now it a get inna me head
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
Whoa oh, oh, oh, don’t pressure me, Dread
(Red now)
(Red now)
A greedy mek fly follow casket, go a hole
Don’t follow old, try lead and control you
I show the corn, but me never call no fowl
The higher you climb and the more you expose
I pray for Paris and I must pray for me
Pray for America, Syria and the East
Pray for the angels and pray for the beast
'Cause every soul is a victim inna this
Red, the place a run red
And right yah now it a get inna me head
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
Whoa oh, oh, oh, don’t trouble me, Dread, no
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
And right yah now it a get inna me head
Me tell yah say
Red, the place a run red
Whoa oh, oh, oh, don’t pressure me, Dread
