iotosh - where i grow lyrics
[intro]
you employ four workers
how much a week do you pay the workers?
how much do you gain per day out of the workers?
so all what you gain has been going away
and nothing’s been staying in the country
so the country been getting poorer and poorer
and the people been getting more frustrated more and more+er
[verse 1]
i’m from a place where suffering is really real for the masses
history of cane fields but it nuh sweet like molasses
remnants of slavery are still seen
need no glasses
for descendants of those who proceed through the passage
dem say that we free but really what that is?
every day of the week you weeping in office
poverty have we weak
we really feel damage
generational grief we carry
[chorus]
in this place i grow
everyone i know
their heart has turned so cold
if they cry you would see snow
in the place where i grow up
no one really know love
their heart has turned so cold
if they cry you would see snow
[verse 2]
i’m from a place where love will get you k!lled
you learn emotions are a weakness
better prep you will
and you better make sure have you defense
crab inna barrel will cause you blood fi spill
all because them see you cup a fill
so many sleeping on the road and we don’t bat an eye
some will say they can’t afford enough to help the plight
but i wonder where they call home when it rains at night?
or how did they even up in that stage of life?
it doesn’t seem they have a family or friend who’s willing to help
but then again many can barely can help themselves
that’s why we’re always so alone
lost souls distressed
surviving but we’re so depressed
[chorus]
in this place i grow
everyone i know
their heart has turned so cold
if they cry you would see snow
in the place where i grow up
no one really know love
their heart has turned so cold
if they cry you would see snow
[refrain]
in the place i grow
place i grow
people been getting more frustrated more and more+er
[verse 3]
survival mentality might be a fallacy
we fight to stay alive
but what is life without humanity?
compassion is the key because we all feel the gravity
the church saying “be meek”
but who is heeding morality?
companies alike, profits high but low salaries
governments align, prefer rising economies
the dark comes to light when you highlight majority
the ones left behind ‘cause dem life not priority
choose to be blind, they won’t abide by apologies
that’s why rifle rise, nah’ve no time for +n+logies
they turn to crime then we cry to authorities
who then burst the nine, murder ripe in the parishes
fruits of the seeds that were sown by the colonists
the cruelty received now condoned in our families
hearts been deceived, turned so cold by societies
that rather degree from their college
[chorus]
in this place i grow
everyone i know
their heart has turned so cold
and if they cry you would see snow, oh
in the place where i grow up
no one really know love
their heart has turned so cold
and if they cry you would see snow
oh, this place i grow
[outro]
heart has turned so cold
if they cry you would see snow, oh
heart has turned so cold
if they cry you would see snow, oh
