wisdom lyrics
verse
always been
allergic to the
fake company
anti social
isolated
from them in
quarantine
them get money
now act more funnier
than bill bellamy
i keep laughing
at the constantly
what comic reliefs
said i’d never make it
now they tired to see
i be on their
screen cctv
talent plus g.c.t
music inimitably
don’t need exposing underneath
is monotony
the standard just to make it mainstream
they tell me dumb it down a little
you’ll increase your ratings
revolutionaries never get
no nomination
appease gatekeepers
they hold the keys
to the dream you’re chasing
if you want to be a star
these are the simple stages
i can take you places
be the new sensation
do you want the cheese
come get your piece
join in the rats racing
no thanks
not craven for fortune nor fame
celebrity statuses the world screaming
my name
if it means that my peoples mind
are locked in a cage
who will break them free
chorus
for what will it profit a man
if he gains the world to lose
his soul
like they don’t you know
wisdom is better than silver
silver and gold!
for what will it profit a man
if he’ll lose his soul
like they don’t know wisdom is
better than silver and gold
verse
gold plated gramophones
could a get owned thru
quid pro quo
hype of success
if it lead to press
they wouldn’t
be so proud
then i reflect back to the era
when it wasn’t for clout
when reggae music had a message
now it’s bragging and boasting
one ‘gainst another
tear their brother down
extend the ladder to the vulture
abandoning our roots
proclaim the new wave
as the culture
for exposure
quickly some take
their clothes off
young girls are looking up
to these role models
with no moral compass
lost, with no direction
men influencing boys either to be
scammers or gangstas
that the gun is the answer
who’ll take responsibility
for all the actions
the question ii keep asking
aren’t you tired of seeing
babies turn orphans
all these k!llings
happening often
rip are plastered on the walls of
ghettos plaque by tragedy
see artists aligning
brand promoting
for the beast
and keeping the masses always
vibrating on the lowest frequency
who will break them free
chorus
for what will it profit a man
if he gains the world to lose
his soul
like they don’t you know
wisdom is better than silver
silver and gold!
for what will it profit a man
if he’ll lose his soul
like they don’t know wisdom is
better than silver and gold
bridge
gold, gold
gold, wisdom is better than gold
gold, gold, gold, gold
for what will it profit a man if he gains the world lose his soul
like they don’t know wisdom is better than than silver and gold
