LINTON KWESI JOHNSON REALITY POEM LYRICS

dis is di age af reality

but some a wi a deal wid mitalagy

dis is di age af science an' teknalagy

but some a wi check fi antiquity

w'en wi can't face reality

wi leggo wi clarity

some latch aan to vanity

some hol' insanity

some get vision

start preach relijan

but dem can't mek decishan

w'en it come to we fite

dem can't mek decishan

w'en it comes to wi rites

man,

dis is di age af reality

but some a wi deal wid mitalagy

dis is di age af science an' teknalagy

but some a wi check fi antiquity

dem one deh gaan outta line

dem naw live in fi wi time

far dem she dem get sign

an' dem bline dem eye

to di lite a di worl'

an' gaan search widin

di dark a dem doom

an' a shout 'bout sin

instead a fite fi win

man,

dis is di age af reality

but some a wi deal wid mitalagy

dis is di age af science an' teknalagy

but some a wi check fi antiquity

dis is di age af decishan

soh mek wi leggo relijan

dis is di age af decishan

soh mek we leggo divishan

dis is di age af reality

soh mek we leggo mitalagy

dis is di age of science an' teknalagy

soh mek wi hol' di clarity

mek wi hol' di clarity

mek wi hol' di clarity
