<br>
<i>[Bashy:]</i><br />
Hey <br />
Look <br />
Yo! <br />
No castaway, no survivor <br />
I ain't lost and this ain't shipwrecked <br />
I feel small in this big wide world <br />
and mommy ain't said 'Honey, I shrunk the kids' yet. <br />
I ain't Jesus, but i'm walkin' on water. <br />
There's no bums here, there's no wall cause: <br />
I can break out of jail with a lighter, <br />
so is there any point in makin' laws blood? <br />
This ain't Atlantis, are you sure? <br />
I nearly suffocated when I touched the shore. <br />
No Rain. Condoms(?) Imported(?) <br />
Up the road, you'll never guess who I saw. <br />
<br />
<i>[Kano:]</i><br />
It's K.A. look, skip on the beat like Ali in the gym. <br />
Honey, I'm home. This is where I wanna live. <br />
Disbanded like leave-oh! <br />
on the d-low. <br />
I don't know if it's greener, but it's green though: <br />
on the other side of the fence. <br />
Bind to the ends. <br />
Look: <br />
No fence, no stress, no rent, no supervision shit, <br />
this real flow. <br />
Where the women look hot, but the beach cold, <br />
and the speech goes like, "Hi little lady." <br />
Sex on the beach, wanna try for a baby. <br />
Word in the village, I'm a little bit crazy. <br />
Swag up on a hundred degrees, not eighty. <br />
Look, if heaven had a VIP <br />
this is it: white sand, blue sea, <br />
but I don't know who they are, <br />
and I'm damn sure they don't know me, <br />
but I come in peace! <br />
<br />
<i>[B:]</i> Cool! White Flag! White Flag! <br />
<i>[K:]</i> No War! <br />
<i>[B:]</i> No Guns! <br />
<i>[K:]</i> No Corps! <br />
<i>[B:]</i> Just life. <br />
<i>[K:]</i> Just Love <br />
<i>[B:]</i> No Hate. <br />
<i>[K:]</i> Just fun. <br />
<i>[B:]</i> No ties. <br />
<i>[K:]</i> Just me and my mind. <br />
<i>[B:]</i> Just me and my wife. <br />
<i>[K:]</i> But tell me if I'm dreamin' <br />
'cause I don't wanna wake up till the evenin' <br />
<i>[B:]</i> and I don't wanna be left sleepin' <br />
from all the diseases <br />
that I breathe in. <br />
<i>[K:]</i> Look, respect the island, no stealin'! <br />
<i>[B:]</i> and don't bring religion here, no three kings. <br />
<i>[K:]</i> It's great and we ain't leavin'! <br />
We come on in peace. Sing! <br />
<i>[B:]</i> White flag? <br />
<i>[K:]</i> White flag!
<br><br><br><br>
