Masicka, Shane Skull & Wirebrain – Promise lyrics
Wages of sin is death and we nuh finish yet
Cah man a hunt fi greatness long before Guinness mek
Goodness in the wage of sin is death and we nuh finish yet
Ayy, tell mi family, mi promise
Mi swear seh we affi live lavish till di day I vanish
Tek a boy go a foreign if it slow up ina di fourteen parish
A who dem a bloodclaat trick like slavery abolished
Wild and mi dark and mi hoggish, buss yuh head wid ‘e forty
It smooth like polish
Brain food ina chalice
Have it and mi nuh move like novice
Gyal loose ina palace
Wonder if ah sue or Alice
Mummy come through, yah goddess
Have it from school, me a di baddest
Put mi hand ina di sky, next hand pon mi heart
G-Syde cah mi nuh miss when mi a buss it, no
Run ina dem house and every mikkle mek a mukkle
Every big man get a shot and every pickney get a buckle
Queen inna di deck, nuh gimi nuh b**ch when me a shuffle
Watchya
Finger strength, quick fi flick di muscle
Hard ball, full di clip and mi nuh tussle
B**ch, me got a couple
Couple bricks ina di duffle
Eye-water, listen mi daughter, mi tell yuh supm
Tell mi family, mi promise
Mi swear seh we affi live lavish till di day I vanish
Tek a boy go a foreign if it slow up ina di fourteen parish
A who dem a bloodclaat trick like slavery abolished
Wild and mi dark and mi hoggish, buss yuh head wid ‘e forty
It smooth
Grung dem
Killas to di left and to di right
Mi never shake
Tell ‘e man weh want a ruffle, dat a duffle as mi wake
Mama, me promise, ah guh drop yuh heavy weight
Firm and solid, suh trod ina every date
Till we vanish
Bwoy doh f**k wid ‘e cabbage
Higher level college, ghetto yutes get knowledge
Never sell mi soul fi di lavish
Yea, wi’ wild and wi’ hoggish
Tell mi family, mi promise
Mi swear seh we affi live lavish till di day I vanish
Tek a boy go a foreign if it slow up ina di fourteen parish
A who dem a bloodclaat trick like slavery abolished
Wild and mi dark and mi hoggish, buss yuh head wid ‘e forty
It smooth like polish
Brain food ina chalice
Have it and mi nuh move like novice
Gyal loose ina palace
Wonder if ah sue or Alice
Mummy come through, yah goddess
Have it from school, me a di baddest
Put mi hand ina di sky, next hand pon mi heart
Nuh matter how di time get hard man a guh flip di paper
Like Covid couldn’t slow we down, we stock di bricks fi later
Fire di Devil ’cause di real lion nuh reason maker
Big up di maker ’cause a this we pray for, things fi greater
Instigator, right in dem forehead, .. fling di laser
‘Cause dem doh wah wi’ fi ball like we have links fi Laker
Ah millions ah implicate and we nuh simple scraper
Mi n**ga dead ah rob a brings, wi’ just wah things fi safer
A try fi infiltrate di paper, yuh fi build di acre
Kill di hater, win di b**сhes, swing di riches in mi favour
Just poverty alone, eh not a thing mi ‘fraid ah
Ina di name ah di King, di Savior
Tell dem seh
Mi promise
Mi swear seh we affi live lavish till di day I vanish
Tek a boy go a foreign if it slow up ina di fourteen parish
A who dem a bloodclaat trick like slavery abolished
Wild and mi dark and mi hoggish, buss yuh head wid ‘e forty
It smooth like polish
