Bridge Is Burning

Lyrics

[Intro] (Pantha) [Chorus: Wretch 32] Not one penny short of earnings, yeah Not two smart fi learning, yeah Not free till we earn it, yeah Hold on, the bridge is burning, yeah [Verse 1: Wretch 32] Confusion only starts when we're looking at who we are Standing in a crowd of people and walking a lonely path Confusion only lasts when we're bickering with each other Am I my brother's keeper or keeping my brother stuck? 'Cause I'm shutting my mother up and selling my brother grub If I had a part to play, it was only a part for us The rent was never paid, I told you, "In God we trust" That's why we've got a prayer for evеrything in the slums Every nibble or crumbs, hеavy pick up a— My bredrin shot his shot, now he's fretting to see the judge And if the lion is the king then you better Simba your cubs And use every ounce of pride when holding Simba above The grass is never greener, they told us we're in the mud But every time they plant a seed, we turn the flower to bud [Pre-Chorus: Wretch 32] I help you just fi get on And then you get on and then forget about us You left me in the barrel, it doesn't matter Mussy too heavy for ya Mussy too heavy for ya [Chorus: Wretch 32] Not one penny short of earnings, yeah Not two smart fi learning, yeah Not free till we earn it, yeah Hold on, the bridge is burning, yeah [Verse 2: Protoje] Bridges burn, lesson learn, you see me hurt Friends lurk behind curtains wishing worst Favours don't get returned in this universe Gratitude is a burden what you disperse Quick and fast, you forget the past It was good yesterday, yesterday never last Here comes tomorrow, bring you likkle joy Coulda bring you likkle sorrow, which mindset you ah follow, huh? [Pre-Chorus: Wretch 32 & Protoje] I help you just fi get on And then you get on and then forget about us (Forget) You left me in the barrel, it doesn't matter Mussy too heavy for ya Mussy too heavy for ya [Chorus: Wretch 32] Not one penny short of earnings, yeah Not two smart fi learning, yeah Not free till we earn it, yeah Hold on, the bridge is burning, yeah [Outro: Wretch 32] I help you just fi get on And then you get on and then forget about us
