Carried Away - Akala, Josh Osho

Another hearse roll up slow

Carry one more poor lost soul

Carry them things every single day

Coz it makes him feel safe

Coz he carry on them ways, screw face

Love the game, reppin' his estate

Talk tough look straight in his face

Carrying deep pain, self-hate

Carry fam, so he carry weight

It’s logical daddy got carried away

Not married away, just didn’t stay

This Coward carried his son to this fate

His boys carrying weight in a wooden box

Can’t stand straight

They was getting outta the game

But look fate she don’t wait

Now the woman in the front row, her face

Show no pain

But her brain went insane on the day the

News came

Stare into space, face numb

The boy getting carried, she carried 9

Months

When this world strip me naked, I turn and

I face it

And really believe I have the strength to

Change it

I’m crazy, it’s blatant sometimes I get

Carried away

When this world strip me naked, I turn and

I face it

And really believe I have the strength to

Change it

I’m crazy, it’s blatant sometimes I get

Carried away

One more body bag getting carried back

From the war zone where they carry

Straps

Where little kids is attacking tanks coz

They carry no fear of the man

All they know here is they land

And a hero, gotta make a stand

So they roll cold with it in their hand

Let it bang on the big bad man

But this particular soldier never move

Colder

Never enrolled to blow no homes up

Felt that life had carried him under

Chose to phone the number

The army gives you training

Nothing they say could really explain it

Sign them papers, enslavement

Now you’re a tool to carry their hatred

Rob, steal, strip a nation

All he wanted was qualifications

So he could carry his family places

Better than those that he was raised in

Never really thought, he’d ever have to go

To war

Now who’s gonna tell his kids daddy can’t

Carry them no more
