Roots and culture - Forelock & Arawak

Now hear what the man said!
This thing is called speak to the world about you roots
So make me go on and talk about my roots my brother man
Have you ever heard about Atlantis?
Have you ever been into a place called Sardinia island my brother man ...
Now I have something to declare
And it's how I love the place where I came from listen what I tell you...

I really love my roots and culture
Yes I mi really love the place where I came from.

History of my place it comes from long time ago
From when my ancient used to build up stone towers all around

Gaudy giant tombs dig in the ground are some of the reasons why I love my roots

Really love my roots and culture

Warrior blood flowing in my veins
To say I’m a local you don't need no evidences

Women and men come in a circle to dance
with arm in arm they have a tougher stance

Sheepskin they wear
fearsome mask on their face and ringing bell when they jump and prance

Outside look rude but inside they are pure. They will get sure the guests have eaten enough food

Conquering invaders kicked away are some of the topic when you read about our tales

You get interested by the story of my island when i'm talking upon the riddim whit this rub a dub style
