Epiphany (Freestyle)

[00:10.28] We don't inherit the lands, we borrow it from our children
[00:12.94] We can live in peace, when we learn how to understand
[00:15.11] We can only fly, when we learn how to lift each other
[00:17.64] They'll be no more ego, when we learn how to take the truth
[00:20.11] Take away the evil politician, no corruption
[00:22.43] We don't want war but they searching how to make war
[00:24.94] When you put the people in poverty, they be violent
[00:27.15] Of course when you corner the dog, it turn savage
[00:29.75] Bark like the scorpion, buss, another drive-by
[00:32.02] The victim was a trapper, simply tryna feed a family
[00:34.46] Afrikan the Alien, the product of an immigrant
[00:36.78] A victim of the system, but he learned how to play the system
[00:39.26] Taught by the works of Yallah, no one can overpower
[00:41.79] Dragons in the air with fire, they fighting over land
[00:44.07] Bombs from the air disperse, just made another orphan
[00:46.55] Devil in a suit just laugh and watch the people starve
[00:48.98] Then they lie to me and say we're doin' all we can
[00:51.24] How you lie to me and say you're for democracy
[00:53.73] A time where the planet was run by the hypocrites
[00:56.03] You breathe, you deserve to live, that's how it should be
[00:58.39] Everyone deserves to eat, like the communist
[01:00.98] Greed always falls in power, ask Boris
[01:03.15] Puppets always looking confused, fuck Rishi
[01:05.87] I used to vote for Labour, now I don't know what to do
[01:08.06] No hope, fuck Keir Starmer, he's a puppet too
[01:10.45] Comfy motha fuckers they don't care about the hell we live in
[01:12.81] Then they say they're all for peace, go on and save the people
[01:15.27] Then Sell and buy more weapons, look at all the ice caps
[01:17.72] Violating God's world, I can see a flood coming
[01:20.18] Wash away the nuclear, take away the
[01:22.53] Green land, take away the future
[01:23.88] Tell me was the blood worth it
[01:24.92] Afrikan the Alien, the witness and the documenter
[01:27.44] Maybe some time
[01:32.12] Love some time
[01:36.01] Don't let it fall
[01:40.96] Let it fall
[01:46.36] I don't owe anyone, I don't owe nobody nothing
[01:48.85] Apart from my mother, what I owe, can't afford it
[01:51.11] I'm sorry for the pain that she felt when
[01:53.37] They locked me
[01:54.32] I'm sorry for the raids and
[01:55.29] The guns all up in her face
[01:56.13] Cah the police looking for me for a murder case
[01:58.53] Suffering cah that's my best friend
[02:00.07] I'd never kill my homie
[02:01.20] Four years on bail
[02:02.00] Had my life moving slow mo
[02:03.22] I'm a leader
[02:04.33] I can't show that I feel broken
[02:05.82] Weed and the lean
[02:06.70] I thought it helped, I was so wrong
[02:08.30] All it did was drive me away from
[02:09.87] Everything I loved
[02:10.87] Could not recognise any peace
[02:12.35] I was full of grief
[02:13.42] May the lord forgive me for my times of weakness
[02:15.38] Babylon, they could never blind me from my history
[02:17.62] Even when they locked me, they could not take my identity
[02:20.03] When it came to faith as a child, I was a prodigy
[02:22.35] In the streets, wearing no shoes, with my older cousin
[02:24.95] Black market in Serekunda, while the sun beating
[02:27.32] Born with a thick skin, they said to me
[02:29.36] "either sell your spirit or your suffering"
[02:31.09] I replied "me I still forgive you"
[02:32.64] Then I took the whippin'
[02:33.97] That real Mother is a fighter, 'cause I'm filled with courage
[02:36.16] I'm in my cell chillin' and I'm watching porridge
[02:38.69] I be taking laps in the yard, no hurry
[02:41.12] I don't fear pain, cah it give me more knowledge
[02:43.46] Yo, before I turn artist, I was a pop star
[02:46.47] Pop mentos into fizzy, til' a pop spark
[02:48.65] Wrappin' all this money like I been a rapstar
[02:51.26] I used to wrap pebs, we them boy that made the hood hot
[02:53.60] My first zino of each flip, I felt like a mobstar
[02:56.07] Second brick flip, with power of silence
[02:58.33] Catch the visions, give it flight like a helicopter
[03:00.60] Brought my niggas in the money, double faster
[03:03.77] Maybe some time
[03:09.45] Love some time
[03:12.03] Don't let it fall
[03:17.21] Let it fall
[03:21.66]
