basmi - abdullah x lyrics

[intro]

[verse]

lil lion, lil queen, lil violence
for who residing in clear view, speak quiet
the meek fire, and weak tire, seems true
the king prying and reaps ire from the few
who keeps midas in sheer silence, as you
and your peeps dying and piling in the soot
the rich lying, and suits hire for a shoot
and k!ll sires, as they riding for the loot

serenade and set the mood
penetrate the mother’s flesh, glass shattered, fools gather
her star sips blood, greed and war
family fly, flee, basmi ’lone with god
on her knees, she plead for mother’s heaven’s rise
like an angel, queen arrives and kiss a final time
the figure fades, the chapter laid, masked in strain
basmi lies in anguish til it’s time to vanquish

decade and a half pass, decadent conditions
the poor living, basmi walking livid
the snakes acquired eden, the throne sullied
streets ain’t eating, hungry, robbing guards for pennies, lord
the mosque empty, basmi sit with the ghosts and hope
and pray for strength, and do away with fear provoked
lo and behold, the scroll roll from the dust, the ink
pristine entrust the means to bust back

her uncle, brother of the king, and devil to them all
roll up, reptilian grins, basmi’s look is disgust
he frown at kin, he sees her heart and fears
what lies within
he seize her then, face to face with evil
he say, “please let not this fire linger”
she headb*tt his face, spit, say, “you disgrace”
smile as he recoil the taste then shout, “what, n*gga”

prison cells, dim candles yond the bars
dragons in the night sky, fly, with the stars
god, the damp air wafts, a torn page lands
messy ink inscribed, revolution’s at hand
it seems violence sparks dreams, the men dying
they seek trial of devils and rich fiends’ lives
she smiles, sire’s phantom proud
mama tears, basmi stands, resolve in her stance now

a shadow dances, friend or foe, she holds tension
the figure closens for her inspection
her uncle, teary eyed, release her from her prison
he sweating, burn marks on his feet and dressing
she help him, shuddering breath, he breathes relief
and smooths her cheek, the feel of familial peace
he speaks, “rise and conquer, roam and reap, fly
far and shine with fire” ‘fore he slumps in ease

scamper, scamper, lil queen, the guards rush
the chill hush of winds blow through windows
by cells busts, to the streets, chaos, death, and embers
rip skies and shed rich husks
the people through they fury’s lense, gaze basmi pure
rejoice as then, the royal blood ensures
the feeble men and mothers who felt hunger’s roar
will pillage gold and jewel for they own allure

“my lord, forgive as we tear down the churches
blood flows for years of hurting, tears and curses
peer our souls, and reaffirm our worth then”
basmi stand before the serpents, caitiffs in their person
she questions her thirst as she observes the burning
of the urban, she search they eyes, hatred certain
she sighs, drops her blade, “exile,” she calls
then smile, as the dusk would soon quell for dawn

days, months, years, seasons charge and chill
the throne returned to one of rightful will
with crown, and beauty of the night to be
a sight it seems, long live queen basmi
