mortimer - in my time كلمات الأغنية

now i pray thee, i pray thee
give thanks for the giving of thanks
you know
and such forth

yeah
yeah
yeah
yeah
being black has been a crime
to the people with no love inside
some could never tell you why
they hate you like a poison
they shoot us in the street
no apology
nuff inequality fi monopoly
it’s okay to disagree with my argument
lost many nights of sleep
it’s been troubling

in my time i’ve heard so many lies
seen so many rise
seen so many fall down
we’ve been witnessing the televised
version of a side
seen us let ourselves down
looking evеn at my yard
since a yah mi learn fi dance
i see fеllow africans
hugging up the propaganda
lord, i see discrimination i see violence
persecution if they cannot buy your silence
yuh nuh see seh even freedom have a price
mind sharp you haffi pay that with your life

in my time i’ve heard so many lies
seen so many rise
seen so many fall down
we’ve been witnessing the televised
version of a side
seen us let ourselves down

those with knowledge spread it
don’t cut, paste and edit
dem seh half the story’s never been told
i wonder who is going to tell it?
will they package it and sell it?
can we purchase it with credit?
and will they break it down in a way
that we can get it?
if you cannot read nor spell it
you cannot feel nor touch it
you cannot see nor smell it
such a thin line when you tread it
some televise the side of life
that really is a lie
if you know the truth, you’d be surprised
so don’t believe the hype
meanwhile the majority a scroll and dem a swipe
dem a program weh yuh view
although you think you have a choice
dem a tell you what to do
where to go and who to like
the algorithm start to spike
whappen if dem do it fi spite
and dem ketch we by surprise
mek the world change overnight
now the planet you call home is
one you cannot recognize
all the wars
all the lies
all the oppression
every cry
every shed of your brother’s blood
every plot you devise for some power
every child that you took from a mother

in my time i’ve heard so many lies
seen so many rise
seen so many fall down
we’ve been witnessing the televised
version of a side
seen us let ourselves down

yeah. me. oh, me. oh

i pray thee
i pray thee
i pray thee

- mortimer
