Kingdom |
| Facts, from the 'Raq |
| Yuh |
| Port-au-Prince is a kingdom, Kingston is a kingdom |
| New Orleans is a kingdom, South Central is a kingdom |
| Freedom, free men are freedom |
| Black life is a kingdom, why kill yourself for no reason for |
| (Facts from the rack!) Why kill yourself for no reason for |
| (Yuh) Chat to dem with no meaning for |
| Hold the sword like a hand should |
| Write your passions into manhood |
| Heightened malice in the land, look |
| Like the lights of havoc do no damn good |
| Half sleep from being overpreached |
| The other half sleep 'cause the xan good |
| A chief would take his hand like a thief |
| And make him stand like a man would |
| In the face of an ambush |
| To the back and they attack |
| Front of they frontline, out the plane |
| With no parachutes and they backpacks |
| Choppin' weed, and droppin' seeds |
| Them flowers grow where they land at |
| Properties on top of these |
| To make power flow from they handclaps |
| Suicide, it’s suicide |
| You and I wouldn’t do divide |
| Who arrived to see you survive, it means |
| Two would die to make you alive, it means |
| You should write for the two that died, it means |
| You arrived with the youth inside, you’re king |
| You align with the truth inside of things |
| Wise to the lies that the youth provide and bring |
| War |
| Does the king make a kingdom? |
| Or the kingdom make the king? |
| Is it free when it’s freedom? |
| Or being dumb being free? |
| Does the king make a kingdom? |
| Or the kingdom make the king? |
| Is it free when it’s freedom? |
| Or being dumb being free? |
| Port-au-Prince is a kingdom, Kingston is a kingdom |
| New Orleans is a kingdom, South Central is a kingdom, yuh |
| Freedom, free men are freedom |
| Black life is a kingdom, why kill yourself for no reason for |
| (Babylon, ayy) |
| Why kill yourself for no reason, fam |
| (Babylon, ayy) |
| (Yuh) Chat to dem with no meaning, fam |
| Well if man was meant to fly, Jah woulda made us all with wings |
| Well he made us all with crowns, that mean seh every man a king |
| Your mind it is your castle, mind can govern how you think |
| The ghetto is a kingdom, cure not all the gully stink |
| No one can change mi mind, no I am thoroughly convinced |
| My woman is a queen that bring forth more princess and prince |
| And if you add up the equation it must mean I’m royal since |
| Everyone in my surroundings is of royal heritage |
| Not everyone of royal blood dress up in a mink |
| Whole heap of king and queen with dem roof make out of zinc |
| So Jah bless the baby mother washing nappy in a sink |
| And ah raise the generation weh ah take it to the brink |
| Does the king make a kingdom? |
| Or does a kingdom make a king? |
| This hidden empire of kings and queens, that no one’s noticing |
| Does a king make a kingdom? |
| Or does a kingdom make a king? |
| This hidden empire of kings and queens, that no one’s noticing |
| Port-au-Prince is a kingdom, Kingston is a kingdom |
| New Orleans is a kingdom, South Central is a kingdom, yuh |
| Freedom, free men are freedom |
| Black life is a kingdom, why kill yourself for no reason for |
| (Babylon, ain’t no king) |
| Why kill yourself for no reason for |
| (Babylon, ain’t no king) |
| (Yuh) Chat to dem with no meaning for |
| Chat to dem with no meaning for |
| Only fools would run from a dead man |
| My mind is an excellent weapon |
| I will not die for a label, let’s come to the table |
| And put together all our blessings |
| Our blessings religious, our blessings ability |
| Our blessings materially, identify enemy |
| Disconnect from the mentally |
| Put all of our energy into the kingdom |
| Back to the front on my way now |
| God has to show you your way 'round |
| Tired, I watch while you lay down |
| You lie while I sleep and you are |
| Take a part of my piece and inherit the heritage |
| We’re not American dreamin' |
| We’re realizing a kingdom |
| Only fools would run from a dead man |
| My mind is an excellent weapon |
| I will not die for a label, let’s come to the table |
| And put together all our blessings |
| Our blessings religious, our blessings ability |
| Our blessings materially, identify enemy |
| Disconnect from the mentally |
| Put all of our energy into the kingdom |
| Back to the front on my way now |
| God has to show you your way 'round |
| Tired, I watch while you lay down |
| You lie while I sleep and you are |
| Take a part of my piece and inherit the heritage |
| We’re not American dreamin' |
| We’re realizing a kingdom |
