What are the lyrics that have you thinking like:ohhh: Because they speak to your soul. The type of lyrics that will have you reminiscing on life, or even thinking on the future. :ahh:


For me it's a line from Damian Marley........... All of his verses on this are :banderas: But lets focus on this one line


When he says " Boom, the youngest betta ragga going murda dem slow"

To me this lyric signified the struggle that the world puts us through,especially the struggle that we go through as black people. Though life is hard, and the system is set to work against us, our children are going to receive the greatest burden of the pain. :sadcam:While we have made it through so much, our children are going to be born and enter this unjust system as well; and they will have to endure it even after we are gone. From a young age our youth are targeted, the media tries to distort their self image, the judiciary system tries to taint them as criminals, police shooting unarmed blacks, etc......:mjcry:

All of this wears them down mentally, which like the lyric said, is like a slow death.

But when I came to make this thread, I found out I misinterpreted the lyric.:manny: So anyway, what are your most nostalgic/hearfelt lyrics? :feedme:

My next song is There for you by Damian Marley

The chorus will always have me :banderas:


Vexation of spirit is a waste of time :ufdup:
Negative thinking, don't you waste your thoughts
Verbal conflict is a waste of word
Physical conflict is a waste of flesh :lawd:
People will always be who they want
And that's what really makes the world go round :ohlawd:
Unconditional love is scarce :wow:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You've always been good to me
Even when i'm not good to myself :sadcam:
You've always been fair to me
Even when i'm not fair to myself :sadcam:
You've always done right by me...........

..........You've always been there for me, mama
So i'll be there for you, papa :to:
You've always been fair to me, brother
And so i'll be fair to you, sister :mjcry:
You've always had faith in me
And so i'll have faith in you...Youuu..:damn:

When you come around the block brothas clown a lot
But please don't cry, dry your eyes, never let up
Forgive but don't forget, girl keep your head up
And when he tells you you ain't nothin' don't believe him
And if he can't learn to love you you should leave him
Cause sista you don't need him
And I ain't tryin to gash up, I just call em how I see em
You know it makes me unhappy
When brothas make babies, and leave a young mother to be a pappy
And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women, do we hate our women?
I think it's time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women, be real to our women
And if we don't we'll have a race of babies
That will hate the ladies, that make the babies
And since a man can't make one
He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one

Somewhere in Chicago
I was a nikka in my younger days
I even went through the phase as an angry ass black man

I played the pan-african for a week
Until I rocked up in Seattle when that "racist shyt" ceased

I met some sisters out in Mozambique, who asked me
What part of africa was my fam tree
It would have to be Réunion
An Island on the coast that was conquered by the French a long time ago

:wow: Blu
