rosewood Lyrics

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
