Echoes of Ceylon

Spitting verses sharp like a monsoon rain (True story) In Ceylon's heart, leaders playing their game (Greed's glory) Mahinda's reign, Gotabaya's fame (Our worry) They spun their webs, but who's really to blame? (History) In the pearl of the Indian, waves crash with might (With might) But the people's struggles are the real fight (Day and night) Corruption's shadow turning day into night (A plight) They promised us a future, oh so bright (No light) Yeah, I'ma speak the truth, no disguise (No lie) Saw the ruin through my people's eyes (Their cries) Economy is fallin', no more highs (No rise) The leaders failed, the system paralyze (Why? Why?) They led the land into greed and deceits (Deceits) Pockets lined, while the public weeps (They weep) Mahinda, Gotabaya had their turn, deep (So deep) Watched paradise fall, it's a stolen dream (A dream)
