Si ou gin zorey, tande
Si ou gin bouche, pale
Si e pas ca, pays en li va coule
Quand qu'ou yon bateau qui plein refijies
Si nou pas cheche bon djie, encore !
Si ou gin zorey, tande
Si ou gin bouche, pale
Si e pas ca, pays nou libral coule
Quand qu'ou yon bateau qui plein refijies
Izrael cheche bon djie, tande !

Dix milles cercueils, gade toutes c'est ti-mounes
Pe ap crie, mais yo pap resucite
Manman rele, mais cadav, pas ka tande !
Zinglin dou passe, mwen tande (blo ! blo ! blo! blo !)

Si ou gin zorey, tande
Si ou gin bouche, pale
Si e pas ca, pays nou li val coule
Quand qu'ou yon bateau qui plein refijies
Haitiens ! cheche bon djie, encore!
Si ou gin zorey, tande
Si ou gin bouche, pale
Si e pas ca, pays nou libral coule
Quand qu'ou yon bateau qui plein refijies
Izrael cheche bon djie

Mwen con yon haitien
Qui tap vend marijuana

Li dit c'est poutet manman te gin cance ( li pas gin l'agent!)
Counya li nan prison, (pou combien temps?)
Lap palem de revolution (sans solutions!)
Mais police yo te passe
Mwen te tande ( blo! blo! blo! blo! )

Si ou gin zorey, tande
Si ou gin bouche, pale
Si e pas ca, pays nou lipral coule
Quand qu'ou yon bateau qui plein refijies
Mysie! suspend tire! encore
Si ou gin zorey, tande
Si ou gin bouche, pale
Si e pas ca, pays nou libral coule
Quand qu'ou yon bateau qui plein refijies
Haitiens cheche bon djie

Depuis mwen petit mwen te con lit genese
Mwen boxe avec satan quand coum boxe ak djialese
Mais gin de le! l'esprit mwen faible
Mwen dit pouki ca politiciens yo fumin zebes?
Tande, map attake nom ou quand cou yon dette, pouki ca?
Pace ou pas con fait bons ?uvres
Mwen con yon politicien yo rele maleb
Male avec ou si ou teste caleb
Loup-garou yo va mange ou cancou yo mange de leb
Rigoise nan bouda ou cancou cheval kap prend fret
Tande, mem nan l'eglise ou prend fret, pouki ca?
Politiciens pas vle tande prete

Yele, yele, yele
Crie, crie, crie
Peuple la yappe mande
Qui l'heu ca bral change!

Si ou gin zorey, tande
Si ou gin bouche, pale
Si e pas ca, pays nou lipral coule
Quand qu'ou yon bateau qui plein refijies
Si nou pas cheche bon djie, encore
Si ou gin zorey, tande
Si ou gin bouche, pale
Si e pas ca, pays nou libral coule
Quand qu'ou yon bateau qui plein refijies
Izrael, cheche bon djie encore

Yele, yele, yele
Crie, crie, crie
Peuple la yappe mande
Qui l'heu ca bral change !

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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."

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
