lirik lagu muslim belal – gunz n’ roses 2
[intro: muslim belal]
down, guns and roses
[chorus: abdullah rolle]
i see roses and guns on the soil laying down
so many have lived, and now underground
oh my days, i would cry
never think that i would find the answers, deep inside
i turned my life around
[verse 1: muslim belal]
imma end up the same place, my granddad went the same place
my cousin went the same place, my auntie went
i just pray that this time that i spend when i’m down here
i do enough to make my grave like a garden of paradise
when i’m down there i know, difference from wrong and right
it’s all clear, it’s black and white
why do i end up in a grey area, we are
some real victims of our ignorance
i hope i do enough now to really make a difference
for a difference in my heart, for a difference in my mind
i was glamorised in crime, now i’m -n-lysing time
and realising that i’m, walking a thin line
although the lifestyle seems fine, the smile is just a lie
i can’t afford to show my weakness, so we all end up defeated
i was the one they turned to for hope, when hope was mostly needed
they put me on the stage, my name was filled with praise
they praised me so much until i wanted to walk away
and even though i was getting paid
the truth is i would’ve done this either way
just to see the smile on mummy’s face
just to know sumaya’s mind ended up in the right place
cuz daddy started off selling apes, mcing on tapes
now there’s thousands buying tickets just to see your daddy’s face
or hear your daddy’s voice, cuz daddy speaks wisdom
a ghetto child converted to religion, a maniac was risen
[chorus: abdullah rolle and muslim belal]
i see roses and guns on the soil laying down, down
so many have lived, guns and roses, and now underground, there today, gone tomorrow
oh my days, i would cry just like that
never think that i would find the answers, deep inside, yo
i turned my life around
[verse 2: muslim belal]
a maniac was risen, and as the same year bob marley died
tomorrow from trenchtown, the same place bob marley rised
to my surprise, i got the same effect as him
representing the same struggle, we got the same shade of skin
now sister, are we bring the ghetto uptown
and there’s nothing but rich people on the streets, when i walk around
but the rest of us are eating, casually on the weekends
surrounded by celebrities, watching the money we spend
the only difference is i need money to live but don’t live for money
so i’m making and easily give back
and backbiters always on the attacks
speaking without thinking and gossiping without facts
the truth is they spend half of the time thinking about me
that’s probably why they only achieve, half of what i achieved
i please, sleep and i breathe, sweat after i run
i’m just a human like you, but look what i’ve become
i learnt to balance my fun as i balance my work rate
they were sleeping early, while i was always up late
and i was up early, while they were sleeping late
that’s why there’s lobster and caviar and black cod on my plate
came from an estate, but i didn’t wait for no handouts
i was getting my hustle on, they was playing runouts
that’s why today i’ve come out, feeling untouchable
allah’s destiny is unstoppable
[chorus: abdullah rolle]
i see roses and guns on the soil laying down
so many have lived, and now underground
oh my days, i would cry
never think that i would find the answers, deep inside
i turned my life around x3
