War

Featuring Nazamba; from the album Fire (2021/414). Lyrics from genius.com, with several lacunae and small mistakes, but much fewer of both than I coulda woulda come up with myself. 🤷 You could listen to it at Bandcamp, if you want.


  [intro]
 Big war erupting
 Start by de corrupt
 And de corrupted
 Yeee

  [chorus]
 And it's a war
 Ideological war
 And it's a global war
 Technological war
 Yeee

  [verse]
 Unless I fly into the sky
 War that's not define my life
 [?] them no tell the truth             (de (poli)'tician?)
 They want some new recruit
 Ten dozen fighter jet
 Eight dozen war ship
 Still can't stop dem from go dung and get the war quick

  [chorus]
 War
 Ideological war
 Yeh
 And it's a chemical war
 And it's a global war
 Yeee

  [verse]
 War
 See they now?
 You want to destroy another man country?
 Well, we can act
 Who will act?
 You have no mercy
 [?]
 Even in the 21st century
 So chow down, [?] just chow down, yeee
 Confirm your victory

  [chorus]

  [verse]
 A long time they piss me                 (the peacemakers
 Cuz I tell them say                     are tell themsel?)
 Them for living in peace and unity
 No, them never pay dem no mind
 They still gwan with dem brutality
 And now dem big on dem bow, dem bawl and dem plea
 Them still can't get the ceasefire, cease fire!
 Throw in a towel, [?]
 Put your hands 'bov your head
 Yeee
 Surrender

  [chorus]
 And now dey say war
 Ideological war, ye
 And it's a chemical war
 And it's a global war
 Yeee

  [verse]
 I tell them, say
 This world is big enough for all of us
 And them still going around fighting
 Fighting and fuss
 I see bomb like [?] guns shot like sangria
 Fire us, living on the general [?]                (dream?)
 Him a house a fallin' in, then get it, seein' they wan'
 nine trillion to buy more war plane

  [chorus]

  [verse]
 One man said him ah, "me well equipped"
 Another man said him ah, "me super fit"
 A next man set him up hypersonic
 To sink warship deeper than Titanic
 Heh heh
 Next man, said ah, [?]
 Make sure some of the plane system a-work    (of defense?)
 Because if I press this red button
 Every city gone under the earth

  [chorus]
 And now dey say war
 A tribulation war
 A every nation war                                    (an)
 Yes, it's a global war

  [chorus]
 (?) war
 It's a mystical war
 Cuz it's a biblical war                       (yiss it's?)
 And it's a global war
 Yeeeee
