Lyrics
[intro]
Banana split, childhood grit, had to quit, make a hit
Family pit, toxic bit, couldn't sit, had to flit
Mainland dream, self-esteem, build a team, make a scheme
Leave the scene, vent the spleen, time to glean what life means
[verse 1]
Grew up bruised, confused, abused, values skewed
Peel refused, accused, misused, always blue
Coconut kin, thick skin, deep within, life wore thin
Had to win, begin again, spin new yarn, learn to grin
[pre-chorus]
Day by day, decay, dismay, led astray
No way to stay, obey, replay, that dossier
Getaway, come what may, display, new array
Of choices made, afraid, but stayed on course, okay?
[chorus]
Banana strong, prove 'em wrong, sing new song, move along
Past the throng, lifelong, headstrong, where you belong
Mainland's call, stand tall, give your all, break the wall
Rise from crawl, enthrall, have a ball, time to haul
[verse 2]
Roots were tight, day and night, full of fright, couldn't fight
Had to write new sight, take flight, find the light
Pack light, hold tight, future's bright, out of sight
Of the blight, wrong turned right, win this fight, reach new height
[bridge]
Tropi-cool turned cruel, misrule, ridicule
Banana's no fool, left that school, found new fuel
To refuel, self-rule, no dual, life renewal
Past they'll unspool, future's jewel, that's the tool
[breakdown]
Ba-na-na brave, broke the chain, rode the wave, to be saved
From the cave, they enslaved, misbehaved, path they paved
Coco-nuts crazed, days were hazed, mind was dazed
New life phased, amazed, appraise how they've raised
[chorus 2]
Look back, on track, no slack, leave the pack
Attack the lack, exact the fact, life's off-track
Family's flak can't hack this comeback
Banana's knack to pack and crack the freedom stack
[outro]
Journey done, new life spun, under sun, just begun
Past's outrun, freedom won, weighs a ton
Top of the run, number one, can't be outdone
They've won, overrun, new life's fun, old life shunned
[tag]
From pain to gain, banana's train topped the lane
Sustained through rain, disdain, and strain, broke the chain
Maintain: old plain brought pain, new terrain's domain
Past's wane as banana's reign rises, won't abstain
[final verse]
Now on top, can't be stopped, success popped, fully cropped
Old life dropped, problems mopped, firmly propped, newly topped
Standing tall, gave their all, broke the wall, made the call
Banana ball, enthralls, stands tall, best of all
