1491 Lyrics by Navy Blue

Song of Sage: Post Panic!

2020

[Intro]
It's Navy Blue the Truest, it takes a lot to do this
Trust, trust, uh

[Chorus]
I used to kiss my Saint Christopher, fuck Christopher Columbus
1491, it's one and done, this shit is fucked up

[Verse 1]
Sitting in my thoughts and smoking dolo in the spot
So many photos on the wall at most the times I was caught
In a web that I had spun myself, the damage did a lot
Couldn't afford to follow troops, so doot-doot-doot, the block is hot
I got brothers in the ends, though, to whom I miss a lot
They got machetes in their track pants, a swishy in the sock
Just say a prayer for a Black man, I been feeling down
I couldn't wait to help myself cope, I'm overcome with doubt
Stuck in the shit like velcro to those I care about
To delve home, missed it, all thе mischief I have carried around this hеllhole
Structure on the church lid, spire like I'm Melo
My family came from London off a road called Portobello
Parallel to Ladbroke Grove, I know the way it gets
When he stepping through a city well known with no regrets
Shoulders ain't for crying on when feelings intersect
I been feeling baby blue just like my father's cigarettes

[Chorus]
Uh, I used to kiss my Saint Christopher, fuck Christopher Columbus
1491, it's one and done, this shit is fucked up

[Post-Chorus]
Uh, shit is fucked up

[Verse 2]
Song of Sage, racing to find the days
Baby, I know the way, take me to where it rains
The rest of me in the flames, my message isn't in vain
That's all that a nigga saying, bothers me when they can't
Remembering better days, collard greens with the yams
I couldn't let it flow, but nigga conscious built the dam
Mama take my hand, I know she know
When my mama take my hand, I know she know
I know she know

[Outro]
No matter what the weak heart say
And I am knowin' that
I and I is like a tree, plant by the river of water
And not even the dog which piss against the wall of Babylon shall escape this judgment
For I and I know that
I and I know that
All of the youth shall witness the day that Babylon shall fall
