Ky-Mani Marley - Seed Will Grow lyrics

[Verse One: Kymani Marley] Yo oh At first glance it's like cupid hit Mesmorised by her thighs and her hips So, she went ahead and find a man wit' some chips And left school when she cop da whip Caught in the game Locked in the speedin' lane Livin a life for money, d** and fame But true love is what she can't entertain And every chance she get she's given the blame Then she askin' why I told she was livin a lie When I told her she started to cry Don't just sit and let life pa** you by And I slowly wiped the tears from her eyes [Hook] I told her to take it slow Girl give it time to flow And from a seed to a flower you'll grow So many seeds on the street No sunshine but always heat And lives are lost at every heartbeat I told her take it slow Girl give it time to flow And from a seed to a flower you'll grow So many seeds on the street No sunshine but always heat Drownin' in poverty and deceit But black roses grow from concrete [Verse Two: Ms. Dynamite] He got a family to feed So every night he out on the street Shottin poison to young mothers and youths dem Cause he feel it the only way to keep his peeps on they feet Makes ends meet And gets his own up out of poverty Until one night He came home to find his mother cry She pointed to the floor and he saw a trail of his supply She led him to his room to find his brother on his bed Track marks Needle in his arm and stone cold dead And suddenly They all flashed before his eyes The kids that he sold to And they mothers cries Every child is someones child You affa a mind what you do Cos Karma gunna bring the drama back on you Do what you gotta do But n***a when it comes to them youths There is no excuse Our future that We supposed to nurture that Nah lettin nuttin or nobody hurt that Do what you gotta do But n***a when it comes to them youths There is no excuse Our future that We supposed to nurture that Nah lettin nuttin or nobody hurt that [Repeat Hook]
