metallic.words (t'afari steede) - nanny grigg lyrics
you can try to catch us
we return to our ancestors
when we run
weightless as de sky
catching bullets in our minds (x2)
i’m just
a brown girl in de ring
caught in a tight circle
wid a king
tryna hold
me
down
wid every law he
brings
so i mek a big knot
and i draw
and i pull my strings:
i could see through white lies
he print
reading fine lines
so my ship won’t sink
when i tell wunna stand guard
don’t dare pause and think :
cause i ain’t got time
to straighten weak links
dis is de last straw
in de rum they drink
been draining our blood
so all we’ve done
is fuel de same chains
they fool us wid
got scars on my spine
from de songs
he rip from our throats :
imitating the flow of that same slave boat
redemption time, we either swim or float
1816, nanny grigg revolt
you can try to catch us
but we return to our ancestors
when we run
weightless as de sky
catching bullets in our minds
