Concrete Root

[Verse 1]
Council flat window got a breadfruit tree
Potted, but it still remember the sea
It watch the 4-5 bus shudder and go
And drink the grey light when the sun hang low

[Chorus]
I'm a concrete root, pushin' through stone
'Pon Brixton pavement, I man grow mi own

[Verse 2]
This riddim a water the cracks in the street
Till even the brickwork can feel the heartbeat
That one-drop a sunlight through the morning mist
Is enough for a stubborn hibiscus to exist

[Chorus]
I'm a concrete root, pushin' through stone
'Pon Brixton pavement, I man grow mi own

[Bridge]
Them say cut your ties, forget where you from
But a tree without anchor cyan't weather the storm

[Outro]
From Trenchtown soil... to Brixton stone.
