[Verse 1: Elucid]

Waterborn, emergency Caesarean

Poured into the ocean, washed ashore in the Americas

Bent but never broken stolen

Waves rolling, swollen bloated bodies starboard

Captives can't repeat what they eyes saw

Horrorcore, shackled down, willingly drowned

New world bound, seafloor, told the pale face to beat off

I’ll take my crown now, last vision, the sun's risen

I war with mystics, ‘sake my name, indoctrinate religion

My kin gullah, skin indigo, peace beloved

Five-hundred summers embers blowing off of kindled bones

The water's troubled, this is not my home

First born bastard, get stoned, forget that we sold

For profit motives, night patrolers, smoke and fire

Fear and desire, beige babies, family ties

Got illegal bindings, pseudo-science drank the maniac

Clad in rags, contagious axe, learned the ways of wrath

Total eclipse and when it came to pass

I’m dragging bodies in tall grass

Bloody cavalier on the war path

Mandated, stripped her naked, with my hands shaking

Flagrant, stares vacant, master's chambers

Held to the plan faithful, ha-hasten my post, sensation

Stunned faces, I take what I wanted, no papers

Runaway fugitives, zig zag zig

Trying to throw off the scent

They let the dogs out again


[Chorus: Elucid]

Why they call this place [?]

I stand here near these rocks

And hear my hammers rings

Why they call this place [?]

I stand here near these rocks

And hear my hammers rings


[Verse 2: Billy Woods]

Throw the switch, watch ‘em scatter, serve cold dish

Man hunched over plate like he catcher

See slave run, see slave captured

Resistance is futile, you say master

Occam's razor, Jacob's ladder

Who needs new slaves when you got black bastards

Three-sixty ways, Portuguese middle-passage

Bequeath to favela with the gun with the ratchet

Begging and pleading, but your life is the price of my freedom

White man say take it or leave it

Cujdo say we not leaving

Plus them pay double if them still breeding

Cold cash, fire burn, the runaways return, we ride fast

Pig on spit, ganja in breeze, shipwrecked staring at the sea

Trelawny town must call fear, bend the knee to king and queen

What's hell to pay, that's why we out fi do it one away


[Chorus: Elucid]

Why they call this place [?]

I stand here near these rocks

And hear my hammers rings

Why they call this place [?]

I stand here near these rocks

And hear my hammers rings
