A mi name Swnkah coming live
Kingston vibe, rock roots, youth promotion
Big up RZA, Mathematics, whole Wu-Tang Clan
A we come fi chant down out babylon

If I put my fist through the face of a racist
Smack 'em tasteless
Would I face three cases in court, locked in places
Or shackled to a seat of a bus, a hundred of us
Life in America shouldn't be so tough
We got western civilization got me fighting for my civil rights
After fighting scores of war, we still fight for our civil rights
To be equal citizens with equal opportunity
Equal chance to advance and uplift our communities
But instead we getting shot in the head
Like a black man life ain't worth a loaf of bread
"Stop or I shoot," you stop, they still shoot
Fuck, fuck, fuck
Stomp you out with steel boots

Oh why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Oh why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Oh why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Oh why, why, why, why, why, why, why

They trying to distract us from our practice
And shackle us up, mentally retract us backwards
Attack us like the prophet on the way to Damascus
It's like we huddle up, had control of the ball, let 'em sack us
Now they overtax us as if they want to collapse us
Don't be diluted by this foolishness
30 years old man still want nothing do with this
Try to find career and a beer on the weekend
And a freak he could take to the crib on the weekend
Suv, XM, heat, only plays the Weeknd
Only wanna fuck you 5AM with no tweeting
20-25 should be working but she's twerking
Nobodies tripping she could make money from stripping
And I'm sitting in the back sipping my 'yac
Can't help but thinking that "What does her father think of that?"
Probably because I got a daughter
I heard Money Mayweather, he makes it rain without water
He dropped 50 G's at a strip club near the border
A dozen women crawling on all fours up
Woah hey, you should've saw her
You should've that money to a college campus
But then again I guess momma needed some Pampers haha
But from my view, these wizards need some pampering
Not a mere mix dilutin' and tampering with the essence
Leavin' em with a lack of substance
And she wonders why, why, why she can't keep her husband

Every color, every race
Every shape, every fade
All around the nation
No discrimination
Peace on we say
From generation to generation
Jah, chant down Babylon make dem know seh we nah take it no more
Straight, make them know RZA, Wu-Tang Clan, take it to them

It's getting realer
Streets getting hotter, I could feel it
Who am I to put a gun to another
I'm just trying to show love to my brother
Hands up
I just pray to God I make it out
Stop kill di youth dem
Is my life not enough
Out of luck
If it's America we trust they tryin' to knock me down
And I'm just trying to live it up
Only one life to live and I ain't trying to give it up

Oh why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Oh why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Oh why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Oh why, why, why, why, why, why, why

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
