[Intro: Beleaf]

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey


[Verse 1: Beleaf]

First off, RIP Phife Dawg

You gave me lightbulbs

Ideas, ideally I rhyme with lights off

U-N-I-T-Y-S, we spell unity

Jamaica on my jewellery

Cause I’ll only rep what’s in my community

Matter fact, play this after my eulogy

I need all the people who say they love me

To be looking in the sky

They say it take a village to raise a child

And now I know why

I never could do it without my


[Chorus: Beleaf]

Tribe, tribe, tribe

Tribe, tribe, tribe, tribe

They say it take it a village to raise a child huh

And now I know why

Cause it's all about my

Tribe, tribe, tribe

Tribe, tribe, tribe, tribe

They say it take it a village to raise a child huh

And that ain’t no lie


[Verse 2: Beleaf]

I dance around the fire pit, fire lit

Screaming out my mantra to the stars

As the requirement

Closer to ‘em

But I wear the smile of an optimist

I’m positive

Because coming behind me is the [?]

Uriah following, wobbling [?]

I hit the yellow deli

To get sweets for my bride

It’s like a spider sense

But I could feel it in my Melanin

The trouble’s on the way

I say to God [?]

Only the strong will survive

I meditate to stay alive

I travel to my special place

It’s in my mind behind my face

And take my time, all else can wait

It’s my fire escape

As I escape the fire only to look at the fireplace

A fire-breathing dragon’s what I’ve become

I kiss coals, my swole lips look like Hov's

I can’t speak at my shows

I am Zachariah muted until John came along

I sing a song, a symphony

And let my Soul Rebel off

With my


[Chorus: Beleaf]

Tribe, tribe, tribe

Tribe, tribe, tribe, tribe

They say it take it a village to raise a child huh

And now I know why

Cause it's all about my

Tribe, tribe, tribe

Tribe, tribe, tribe, tribe

They say it take it a village to raise a child huh

And that ain’t no lie


[Verse 3: Chocolate Babies]

It’s lit [?]

And Riah’s got the fire

Chocolate babies [?] rappers attire

Hit me up if you ever need a ghostwriter

I wanna meet my sister

Her name is Anaia

Baby’s got the locks

And now we got the keys

God bless you

Even if you never got to sneeze

I wear a big hat [?]

If you don’t follow the Father

Then you don’t follow me


[Chorus: Beleaf]

Tribe, tribe, tribe

Tribe, tribe, tribe, tribe

They say it take it a village to raise a child huh

And now I know why

Cause it's all about my

Tribe, tribe, tribe

Tribe, tribe, tribe, tribe

They say it take it a village to raise a child huh

And that ain’t no lie


[Verse 4: Beleaf]

One bad apple will spoil the whole bunch

Bad apple sauce will screw up your whole lunch

Warm apple juice will mess up the whole punch

And an apple will keep the doctor away

So watch how you sow your seed

They say the apple don’t fall far from the tree

They say the apple don’t fall far from the tree

They say the apple don’t fall far from the tree


[Outro: Chocolate Babies]

Me and Riah and [?]

And Bob and Mama, my sister, Anaia

Peace out
