mc mantra - break tradition كلمات الأغنية

verse 1:
he’s from a place where fighting is a way of life
fighting every single minute just to stay alive
his parents called him a waste of time
and when he left in the morning they wouldn’t say goodbye
you could see from the bags under his eyes he was underslept
cos at home he was under threat
so he went to school thinking he could make an escape
but at school he never did get much respect
it’s no wonder the little man was in such distress
when his self-esteem was barely at one percent
no one could guess use how much it meant
those scars go far deeper than the marks the punches left
his one regret was how clear it was
that not much of his love was left
and he knew that was the only thing he needed
and he knew that was the only thing he was never gonna get

(chorus:)
what we do is who we are and what creates the system
what we learn is what we teach it’s how we raise the children
from where we come from to where we go we have to make decisions
but ain’t nothing gonna change unless we break tradition

verse 2:
so the kid grows up with a chip on his shoulder
and the mentality of a soldier
it only gets worse as he gets older
he’s a ticking time bomb, a loaded revolver
somebody told him not to let it get the better of him
so a boy’s gonna do what is expected of him
he’s gonna tight back, but when he strikes hack
the scene’s moving too quick like a time lapse
picks an innocent victim
he’s thinking this is what i was given and now i’m giving it right back
he’s got one thing to make clear
he’s nobody to mess with, somebody to fear
he’s from a place where fighting is a may of life
fighting every single minute just to stay alive
he’s just a kid he was never ready to take a life
now he’s gotta pay the price just to make it right

(chorus)

bridge:
just cos there’s violence in our lives
does that make it a part of us?
something we cannot change?
just cos there’s violence in our streets
does that mean we should settle for
a world where violence reigns?

verse 3:
(break tradition)
we either victorious or we victims
its in us from very beginning, we gotta
(change the pattern)
the pattern that has been happening always
the more we ignore it the more we all pay
(break the cycle)
it’s easier said than done, but either we get it done
or we will forever suffer so
(turn the table)
take the situation by the reigns, break the chains it is something we can change if we break tradition

(chorus)
