Intro
Jay Cee Boyyy
Yeah, yeah…
From the dirt, from the drum, from the sea and sun…
Chorus
Came from the dirt where the rhythm don’t sleep,
Barefoot steppin’ where the real ones be,
Heart stay heavy but my soul stay free,
D town in my blood, yeah it flow in me,
Hands to the sky when the bassline drop,
We don’t beg love, we just take our spot,
From the roots to the roof, yeah we won’t stop,
Drum talk loud when the people get lost.
Verse 1
Mama said, “Boy, keep your spirit strong,”
Even when the nights get cold too long,
Friends turn fake when the money come,
But the land still sing me a real-life song,
Broken roads but we still parade,
Paint on my skin, yeah we still not afraid,
They want shine but they don’t want hate,
I want truth in the love they fake.
Pre-Chorus
When the world feel dark, I just feel my chest,
Boom-boom heartbeat, that tribal test,
No gold chain gonna save my stress,
Just my people and the breath I bless.
Chorus
Came from the dirt where the rhythm don’t sleep,
Barefoot steppin’ where the real ones be,
Heart stay heavy but my soul stay free,
D town in my blood, yeah it flow in me,
Hands to the sky when the bassline drop,
We don’t beg love, we just take our spot,
From the roots to the roof, yeah we won’t stop,
Drum talk loud when the people get lost.
Verse 2
City lights try blind my eyes,
But I still see home in the stars at night,
Cousins in the back with a dream so loud,
We just want peace and a piece right now,
No suit tie, just truth in my tone,
Every scar got a story, every scar that I own,
They want to chase clout, I want to chase my zone,
Where the elders smile when the children come back home. Yeah yeahh
Bridge (Half-Sung / Chanty)
Oh-na-na, we rise, we rise,
From the fire, from the tide, from the cries,
Oh-na-na, no lie, no lie,
We survive, yeah we built from our pride.
Final Chorus (Big Energy)
Came from the dirt, now the drum gon’ speak,
Every lost soul gonna find that beat,
Still got pain but I stand on feet,
Still got love for the ones with me,
When the bass hit deep, feel it in your bones,
That’s the voice of the land, that’s the call from home,
We don’t fold, nah we stand as one,
From the roots to the sun, yeah the war not done.
[Violin & guitar Solo]
Outro
From the dirt… to the drum…
Still here… still strong…
