Letra da Música Play Fool (To Catch Wise) de Alborosie

Play fool to catch wise
Ghetto youth, time to rise up!
You must play fool to catch wise
Yow, time to rise and shine!
Play fool to catch wise
Ghetto youth elemental surprise

Play fool to catch wise
Ever shine! Yow!
Kaa' when di system pressure youth wat a thing?
Jobless, empty pocket and nuh formal sekklement
And so di youth take up badness, start hustling
I'm fire the black iron and nuh zion
Cyaan nuh save I'm from judgement
Time to follow righteousness, get some meditation
Some youth just left behind, last seen a smelt some medication

Good ova evil is the final confrontation
Look forward for a global emancipation, yow!
Play fool to catch wise
Ghetto youth elemental surprise
Play fool to catch wise
Ever shine, ever bright, ever rise!
Play fool to catch wise
Ghetto youth elemental surprise
Play fool to catch wise

Ever shine, yow!
And when one door is closed many more a open
Bob marley said it, yes, and we neva eva doubt it
The situation tuff, bad, make we face it
Opportunities, roast dinner, and few cyaan really make it
No job a no justice, and youth a move drastic
'Nuff a dem a end up in a plyboard casket
Running from police, dat a dem gymnastic
That's why jamaican youth
Dem dem a send it like elastic
Play fool to catch wise
Ghetto youth elemental surprise

Play fool to catch wise
Ever shine, ever bright, ever rise!
Politician set it
Di youth dem a regret it
Poor people don't drink wata
Minister eat spagetti
Ghetto youth dem sceptic
Di plan most effective
Situation ruff
So, who's goin' correct it?

Time to follow righteousness, get some meditation
Some youth just left behind, last seen a smelt some medication
Good ova evil is the final confrontation
Look forward for a global emancipation, yow!
Play fool to catch wise
Ghetto youth elemental surprise
Play fool to catch wise
Ever shine, ever bright, ever rise!
Play fool to catch wise
Ghetto youth elemental surprise
Play fool to catch wise
Ever shine, yow!
