Story behind the song
my first full song
Lyrics
The Athem of Peace
straight thru the dark
we takin' us apart
like u neva saw the gaaame
how u neva gotcha name
children in da streets
now cryin over bread
u know u be sayin' now
I know ull be prayin'
more than we be doing
or more than we be seekin
poor be poor
while the rich gettin' rich
such goes our life
dawg, why it feels so cheap?
man why it feels i can't?
bro why it feels i rant?
how ma gonna make it thru
When we be actin such fools?
Happiness a word that sum neva gonna feel
for sum ppl like us who neva thought it real
who neva thought to give
like who neva thought to smile
Are we da same ppl
that we all desire?
fillin the gap
it aint all about rap
life aint that so short
thatll pass in a snap
Asia, America, Africa, Middle East
Everywhere we see
All I see is huge waste
Is that who da best
That moves without rest?
Not lookin back while the rest
Dies like pests?
Man, How we da best
When we cant even rest
When we cant even talk
Without hving to mock?
We better think twice
Before rushing for that wealth
Have you ever seen that girl
Cryin by her mothers death?
Who begs for a dime while she cant even talk Bruh
Is that a joke that she cant even walk?
Another child dies without anything to drink
When police stops our car for hving too much drink
On a Saturday night when we go to the party
That poor girl looks for sum shelter in slums so dirty
Man is that the dirt
Or is that our mind?
Who knows what we are?
With dollars makin us blind
Can we see with our eyes
Can we feel with our sense
Or do I just sound like spittin
Some nonsense?
Aj ekti bani shunabo tomader
Jeta niye cholo jai shamne egiye
Agate Jodi Paro
Agate Nahi Chao
Ami to thambo na
Bolte parbo na
Kisher shopno niye
Shesh prante aj dariye
Bilashota aj bhule giye
Cholo Jai egiye
Keno ami oshhoy
KI ache ei thikanay
Jekhane chole jai
Bohu dure ojanay.
Shamne Chol shob
Aj shokto hate lorbo
Kisher jontrona
Amay kore bishakto
People in da streets livin in slums
No money to eat so they livin off of crumbs
Tired of hearing gunshots theres nowhere to run
Its up to us to rise up and shine like da sun
Cmon everybody the challenge has just begun
Gotta rebuild from the damage thats been done
Peace—not war or the barrel of a gun
Peace—its up to you make sure the battles won
We aint gonna ask u to donate
Or to cry over those poor souls
All we ask u is just to think for a sec
Think wat u be goin for
Think if u need to make ur plans Broader that urself?
