rosewood

I am charcoal beauty
Fire, ash and heat
I am never extinguished
Burned down
But not defeated
My existence be resistance
Every heart beat like darts
You know you not gon' get far, yes
If you come up in my yard. yes

When the enemy be come for me
I'm on my guard
When the enemy be come for me
I'm on my guard, yes

You come like thieves in the night
White sheets in the breeze
By the light of fireflies
Envy in the green of your eyes
Under cover of dark lit skies

You come to pillage my streets of gold
Hate in your veins and a rage in your soul
We not gon' let you push us back
Into the swamp again
Fire, thunder, drums again

When the enemy be come for me
I'm on my guard
When the enemy be come for me
I'm on my guard, yes
