lyrics

CHORUS (Isis)
I wanna go to a place where sand is soft as the breeze
I wanna blow into the air, the sweetest smelling trees
And when the plane lands on the island
I wanna see everybody smiling
Cause they all been waiting just to see me.

(Verse 1 Masia One)
Back in the day
In the day, a teenager
Bold. Off the coast where the sunshine grows
They stuck on escalades
How about my people live, still get paid, Yo!
So far, turn a page
Public Enemy tape – bootleg breaks.
Watching Ricki Lake on the school vacate
Private in the art, stead’ of give and take
Young girls, prissy hoes
Shook it to the left, I did my thing you know.
Doing what I can to refine the prose
Do it with a tan, and some painted toes
Yardie in Japan, So Def? Who knows.
Rockin’ for a grand? Got that Hustle and flow.
Kick it with my man, back in yard
In close, country and some land, chill in Cocomo
Just coast.

CHORUS

(Verse 2 Masia One)
New day, great escapes
Rock it like I’m Janet on an escapade
Yo, front line, Straits in time
No matter what it takes, Lion City coastlines.
Fiddy for a ditty, just battle boast lines
Missy, what a pity, TV and toast time.
Don’t break no broke dimes.
They pinch the pockets, poke mine
I think the phone line,
All things glitter ain’t gold, the Po, the bovine
Farming with a see, a ghost in gold mines.
I miss my bor, but most times, always on the go, it’s coast to coast time.
Peter in the tweeters, 12” speakers,
More fiah! Talk of the town, a born leader.
Trench town heaters, beaters
Sunday dressing for church, 
I search that zoo keeper.
Leader of the South East stand up, let me see your hands up
Land ho! Butter soft flow like leather
Wanna change the times like the weather
I dream Mohammad Ali, I rock better, B
Beh bak gau ne laki
Back home I’m chili padi cause I’m money!
Bounce.


CHORUS

Verse 3 (Masia One)
Oceana, Carribbana,
Puapa New Guinea, Osaka men are fine
Soloman Island wine,
St Lucia, Guam, Pulau, Maldives
North Mariana, Guyana shine
Hatian breaks, Aristide in time.
Micronesia, Indonesia, Tioman Isle and my Polynesians
Yes Samoa, yes St Vincent
Mountserrat & Belize just listen (Oh!)
Trini and Tobago know, gun peppa sauce and a double to go
Two’s for the money when One’s on the flow
I’m out of T.O. when it’s 40 below
Fiji, Grenedian
Montreal Canadian
Thailand, Cambodian
All my soul aquarians
Rock a door knock like Dominica
Give a shout out to my Phillipinas
I’m a wyle out in Ipanema
Love Jamrock, cause their walk is meaner
Scenester, keener, microphone fiener
Singapore girl and still that born leader.

LADY E
Pulau yang biru indahnya suasana (Ay ay ay)
Ku lihat air mengalir dengan tenangnya (Ay ay ay)

Walau di mana ku berada
kan ku simpan kenangan ini
takkan ku lupakan  pemandangan di pulau bani
kan ku sematkan di dalam hati
Masia dan Lady E di sini kita menanti

BRIDGE 1
I’ve been down, too long
I gotta get away, I gotta get away
And I’m hoping in the writing of this song,
I find someway, to escape

CHORUS

BRIDGE 2
Welcome to your peace of mind
Sorry that it took so long to find
But now that you’re here, I hope all that your cares
You’ll leave behind
