the plant - smokeytheghost lyrics
(intro & kannada sample)
(verse 1: smokey the ghost)
living up in bangalore man i thought that everybody walk this way
wake up to pe cos, my mojos peak when i sip this haze
vidhan soudha lion got every cubb-on the park to play
all hail the queen that put empires on a churches way
no fan of gandhi, my punches echo in koshy says
so chinnaswamy let ident-ty teleport away
you probably can start it, i’ll follow wherever ub
cantonment of coolies, enrolled in the gravy to float
as it reverse aks make a area-code
ashoka took golf b-lls, no birdes to hole, they f-cked my city my soul
cause a hideous growth
turn my moody monroe, into a dubious hoe
but
i
got to be patient
thank goodness gracious
hearts full of latent emotions that never made it
incarcerated by self-doubt
you try to fake it
dwell in thoughts that never was, her rebel cause
overthunk reality, she’s walks the peril par
an idle mind stations nothing but the devils shop
control by the chemicals, turned her to an animal, escaping a 9-5, be slave of mechanicals
remember
that you got to be patient
black white or asian
follow no nation
troubles we face em
without standing ovations
welcome to home, post-colonial invasion
(chorus: aerate sound & smokey the ghost)
turn on your vision, our two eyes frown don’t you
see no religion, sing
i’m alright
turn on your vision, our two eyes frown don’t you
see no religion, sing
i’m alright
(verse 2: smokey the ghost)
living up in bangalore, man i thought ill never make it
in a city populated full of silly occupations
we travel so majestic, like tipu’s summer palace
never sold it in an auction, so national’s the market
similar apartments same cinema of solace
as synonyms of people still differ where the heart is
city of the gardens, girls are pretty, boys are honest
every breath is cherry orange, lal bagh is like a forest
i’m nothin but a petal, you all nothing but a flower, bangalore’s a plant, man it’s sunny when it showers
got women weed and weather, and our anthers so developed, but i wish our ways were higher like we vishaveshwar iyer
love scatters like its raman, haters sprouting every autumn, take steps full of caution or be stuck up in the bottom
treasure the distortion, mix a measure of emotion, to make a song about my home, the hole i feel it often
but
i never
leave bangalore broken
my vocals are spoken by the people thats woken
open mind and they focus, unless they croak up in opus, welcome to home…
unless you doubt this is bogus
please remember
that you got to be patient
black white or asian
follow no nation
troubles we face em
without standing ovations
welcome to home, post-colonial invasion
(chorus: aerate sound & smokey the ghost)
turn on your vision, our two eyes frown don’t you
see no religion, sing
i’m alright
turn on your vision, our two eyes frown don’t you
see no religion, sing
i’m alright
