lirik lagu barzey beats & natty flamez - psalms fi di streets
mi seh… babylon full a colour, but no light
di street corner holier dan di church altar
psalm 23 cyaan save yuh if yuh nuh live it…
mmmhmm… yow…
barzey pon di riddim
[verse 1]
mi grow inna time weh granny used to pray
now mi step outside, an’ mi haffi hold a k
youth dem gone wild, morals gone stray
dem rather buss shot than kneel an’ pray
hustle fi bread, not fi pride nor post
while di pastor deh a preach inna tailored coat
tell mi how di yute dem lost hope
an’ every 16 deh pon a murder quote…
[hook]
this a psalms fi di streets, not just sunday word
where blood talk louder than any sermon heard
babylon smiling, but di truth still hurt
whole world change since mi rise from dirt
psalm fi di ghetto, hymn fi di poor
dem knock but cyaan open no door
justice a game, but mi nah play more
mi lyrics a prayer, mi tongue a war sword
psalm fi di ghetto, hymn fi di poor
dem knock but cyaan open no door
justice a game, but mi nah play more
mi lyrics a prayer, mi tongue a war sword
[verse 2]
mi nah forget when man did respect code
now a man sell soul just fi likkle road
clout run tings, nuh heart, just load
gyal a cry out, but dem voice get ignore
every garrison full, but no guide
politician smile, but mi see wah dem hide
every likkle youth feel dem cyaan confide
so dem strap up and ride… blood collide
[bridge]
“psalm 91, but who really safe?”
“dem seh dem holy, but gwaan like wraith.”
“mi seh… prayer inna dancehall, still sacred…”
[final hook]
this a psalms fi di streets, not just sunday word
where blood talk louder than any sermon heard
babylon smiling, but di truth still hurt
whole world change since mi rise from dirt
psalm fi di ghetto, hymn fi di poor
dem knock but cyaan open no door
justice a game, but mi nah play more
mi lyrics a prayer, mi tongue a war sword
whole world change since mi rise from dirt
psalm fi di ghetto, hymn fi di poor
dem knock but cyaan open no door
justice a game, but mi nah play more
mi lyrics a prayer, mi tongue a war sword
[outro – thunder fx, low whisper]
so mi bun vanity, chant clarity
mi nah bow fi di salary
“jah watch every move inna babylon gallery…”
barzey we did it again
