Kingstown (Feat. The Spaceape)

A temperature rise before we reach the gates
Suggests more than what we bargained for
The slick dark surface with eyes that glint in the night
And curves that swerve with every shifting view
An intense fever bawls and screams
As it burns you up from the inside, outside
A head is a place where pleasure and pain collide
You see murder can happen pon the steps of colonial residence
Without even a moment's hesitance
Fact is not one somebody is even surprised
It's just another day's news
We only have ourselves to lose
The trials and tribulations, what a tribulation
Goes further than a relation between man and man
You see the territory is rough and the fear, what fear?
It is clear what has to be done
No victories, no defeat
Just a burning chalice of deceit
No question of living can be answered by begging
Begin I say with the questions now emerging
Why do you look pon me in this fashion?
Why do you stare without taking any action?
How can you throw a life in such a careless way?
What a whole heap of botheration we're inna today
Voices speak freely about the coming despair
That will lead to the destruction of the careless man
And leave nations impaired
According to the brothers these hours are nearly upon us
Is it true what you say as you lick your tongue pon honey lust?
You accept the rancid dollar without concession, just need
Just because them no live yah
No mean them haffi tek everything for free
As day becomes night so much of our space evaporates from sight
In this yah righteous place, resistance holds tight
No question of living can be answered by begging
Begin I say with the questions now emerging
Why do you look pon me in this fashion?
Why do you stare without taking any action?
How can you throw a life in such a careless way?
What a whole heap of botheration we're inna today
