Two brandnew songs outta Yard.
check the lyrics, the songs will be soon on myspace.
"Speech to the Nation"
on an old school beat, and it shall remind of those days when Malcolm, the Panthers and others hold their speeches.
Good Evening!
Okay, okay, thank you Brothers and Sisters,
I really apriciate
It’s good to have you here
This evening tonight
But now let me hear
What do we say, when we go to fight?
Chor:
All those in the back, won’t you raise your fist?
And all those on the right, won’t you stomp your feet?
All those on the left, won’t you raise your fist?
And all those, in the front, let me hear you shout!
(repeat)
You heard Marcus Garvey
And You heard Malcolm X
You listened to Bob Marley
and you know all the texts
What will it take more to get you vex?
Another Fred Hampton murdered in the night?
Another Bubby Hutton claimed to take flight?
What takes it more till you fight for your right?
Thank you, thank you very much, yes thank you
But don’t clap your hand, don’t clap yourself
But clap the next Jim Crow you can lay your hand on
And tell him that the time is over to play friend, son
No longer will we bow and grin
Up ye mighty people you can accomplish what you will
Now you pay for your sin!
Chor:
Up ye mighty people let me hear you clap
And all you mighty people let me hear you rap
Rap for the good of the world
Rap to educate both the boys and the girls
Rap to burn down all those evilness
And Rap to lively up yourselves
Rap to live safe in ya own neighbourhood
And Rap for your children to have enuff food
And Rap for all those who haven’t understood
Rap against hard drugs threatening our kids
Rap against norms that just don’t fit
And let us all Rap against politricks
Our Rap burns hotter than candle sticks
We Rap for old women to cross alone the street
In dark side ways whole alone on their feet
Without having fear of some gang to show up
With their brainwashed brain high on hard drugs
They could be lawyers or something, but now they are thugs
The victims of establishment, they beat up all of us
Their own Brothers and Sisters
Thank you, thank you very much, is a great pleasure to talk to you
But now again, let me hear, what do we say when we go to fight?
Chor:
all rights, Yehneh Prod.
the next is a bit ironic one, it is about the reggae scene and the females there trying to get a dread. You know this is one of the reasons I n I nah go deal with the scene... coz the time the spolights switch on and some girls cheer, most dreads sell out. this is for those. teach them
"If you are a Queen"
If you are a Queen you can come to me yeah
If you are a Queen my door will always be open for ya
If you are a Queen I will stand for ya
Each and every stageshow
There are those girls in the front row
Wanna see me grab my … and call them hoe
And you want me to call you bitch
And all those things you think that fit
If you wanna have a cool rapper image
And you wanna repeat dumb phrases
that the conscious lyrics replaces
So you can shake yaself to the beat
And you smile so wild to meet and greet us to come up the stage
Behaving like onna dirty frontpage
And of course then you wanna backstage
So you have a good story to tell next days
End up with the rapper in bed
And even better than a rapper would be a dread
And of course you wanna take a picture
So that all your friends will believe ya
When you boast you were the hoe of a rap-star
Chor:
Where were you when my dollars were very few?
And where are you while I pray and all the things that I do?
No, I didn’t see you
But I see you now
Booty shaking, up making, numbers taking
The boys say wow
Of course they like to see ya cloth nearly explode
So tight that it really expose
things under your shirt and skirt
And I can tell you that it really hurts
I see you and you think ya the sex-pert
Champagne in hand, every boy is your friend
But is this all you can?
Your life’s whole sense?
You are so drunk that you can’t even say a straight sentence
But you are content
Coz every boy wanna steal a glance
But she only look for the Natty Dread
But girl you won’t get a chance
You here what I said?
Chor:
Yeah check this
Now listen to this
I have to get this straight
This was just a debate
Just theoretically talking
Of course I’m not walking alone in this world
But I share my life with only one girl
So I have a Queen and so I can talk bout self-esteem
I’m with her since back in the teens
When we were just something like sixteen
So yes I actually know how hard it is for a girl to go
A way in self confidence and in dignity
And we will share this way to infinity
So the next time girl you inna dance
Behave yaself in self confidence
Culturally dressed up in dignity
And the Dread will come over to ye
Keep yaself clean from mind pollution
Properly attired, no alc, no cigarette
Is the first step on roots evolution
And those hoes will see ya’s a threat
Chor:
all rights, Yehneh Prod.
soon come on myspace.
WORD SOUND POWER
