[Chorus: Blue Saint and Chatterbox]
They screaming:
Sodom and Gomorrah
This world a decay
But all they can follow
And chase is the way
That they were brought up
And raised in this place
They screaming: Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
[Verse 1: Blue Saint]
A troubled child left bereft, parents neglect
His troubled eyes melts with stress, meaning he wept
Finds no meaning, in life
Feeling like his life a mess
Feels like demons, starting to creep in
Is his life a test?
In nights he wept, his cries would vent
The type of stress
He'd find content, in fighting pests
But they like to jest
They like to jest, line to jest
And ridicule
His life detests, the strife he's set
And these minuscule
Trife unkempt, people
[Chorus: Blue Saint and Chatterbox]
[Verse 2: Blue Saint]
She's a young girl looking for trouble
Though she don't know she's looking, mis-tooken, forsooken by couples
Couples of parents, coupled by parents, who booked when she struggled
To appear normal, normally a parent would look to uncover
The problems, instead of
Throwing her in homes to be fostered
Where she was abused, used
Various brutes, had her muzzled
Maltreated, beaten
Bruised and wounded in scuffles
By ruffians who'd leave her blued in a pool of her blood, so...
[Chorus: Blue Saint and Chatterbox]
[Verse 3: Blue Saint]
A young mother, with nuttin' other, than a dumb lover
Her son, and her son's brothers
Need some crumbs or other
Types of food
But all they gain's bread and circuses
Mother's lover gets younger stunners
More disturbances
Plus her daughter's caught up, in problems, so she services a
Couple brethren, so she can check in, some cheques and
At age eleven a couple men would
Hop in her bed and say:
"It's fine, just chill, it's fine babe"
[Chorus: Blue Saint and Chatterbox]
[Verse 4: Blue Saint]
Ah, this young daughter Michelle
Used to, sexual abuse
At age four she was held
By her, mother's lover
And forced to unveil
Private areas that she keeps
"Or else I'm on tell, a lie to your mother"
Blackmailed and compelled
She went under covers
That's when her life derailed
No money in the house
Struck by poverty, kicked out
Cos she don't act normal, she living in hell, she screaming...
[Chorus: Blue Saint and Chatterbox]
[Verse 5: Blue Saint]
..As she reassess, her living stresses, strenuous settings
That she's stepped on, the recesses
Of her mind, let's up
She's dressed up, in an attire messed up, entire dress cut
Up by death, she was left for dead on the streets, and then puffed
Out some air
Somehow survived, a knife in her
Thigh, she's sighs like "I'm still alive"
But her sides feel teared
She's laying by guttering
Her gut just bleeding, in gutters seeping
She feels gutted by her misfortunes...
[Chorus: Blue Saint and Chatterbox]
[Verse 6: Blue Saint]
Friend of Michelle was Angela
Girlfriend of Raphael
Raphael's gang members, from his favela
Misdirected vendettas, on Eric's familias
Pressured to bully Eric to prove how real he is
So what he do?
He bullies Eric, not knowing
What he's doing is abusing and hurting, an innocent child
Angela's crew, made him feel less important
They were the worst for bullying him
Although Michelle didn't know it
Yet!
Until he stepped in a sweat
Looking distressed, looking a mess
With heart out his chest
Looking to be doing something stupid
He picked the switchblade
Picks it up and bickers with Michelle
Embittered, he sticks it in her ribcage
This the sorrow that they live with
Sinning in the city something like the scriptures
What is sinning?
Please answer please
What is sinning?
What's the question to belief?
What's belief? What's a priest?
What's a preacher? What's a preach?
There's believers, there's deceit
There's the truth, there is greed
What's a beacon of peace?
What's a sinner, what's a winner? What's a stealer? What's a killer?
What is dinner, when you feast? In..
[Chorus]
[Outro: Blue Saint and Chatterbox]
Oh Sodom and Gomorrah...
This place a decay
A place made for our graves
If we continue, through these ways
We'll bring hell and brimstone
To our place
A place where the rapists vacating
Where arrogance, indifference
Is staying
We're overfed, committing these tainted
Acts, but we act like it's okay
Cos this is...
