Reality Poem |
Dis is di age af reality |
But some a wi a deal wid mitalagy |
Dis is di age af science an' teknalagy |
But some a wi check fi antiquity |
W’en wi can’t face reality |
Wi leggo wi clarity |
Some latch aan to vanity |
Some hol' insanity |
Some get vision |
Start preach relijan |
But dem can’t mek decishan |
W’en it come to we fite |
Dem can’t mek decishan |
W’en it comes to wi rites |
Man |
Dis is di age af reality |
But some a wi deal wid mitalagy |
Dis is di age af science an' teknalagy |
But some a wi check fi antiquity |
Dem one deh gaan outta line |
Dem naw live in fi wi time |
Far dem she dem get sign |
An' dem bline dem eye |
To di lite a di worl' |
An' gaan search widin |
Di dark a dem doom |
An' a shout 'bout sin |
Instead a fite fi win |
Man |
Dis is di age af reality |
But some a wi deal wid mitalagy |
Dis is di age af science an' teknalagy |
But some a wi check fi antiquity |
Dis is di age af decishan |
Soh mek wi leggo relijan |
Dis is di age af decishan |
Soh mek we leggo divishan |
Dis is di age af reality |
Soh mek we leggo mitalagy |
Dis is di age of science an' teknalagy |
Soh mek wi hol' di clarity |
Mek wi hol' di clarity |
Mek wi hol' di clarity |
