Community from Bare Trap by Dole Boi

For the mental health of you and me Community is key



What you know about community?
What do you know?



From the bottom up, we build our own way
No funding or grants, just people, every day
Got each other's backs, through struggles and strife
That's the power of community,
We won't be divided, we won't be fooled
Community is future, and it's time to take the rule
We'll make our own decisions, we'll take our own path
Our community's the power, thats simple maths

Listen up, Community's the key
The government, dem aint got a clue, G
Look out for each other, the way it's gotta be
No politician's gonna save you fam, it's you and me
The ones on the ground, make it real
Buildin' bridges, that's how we feel
We're the ones in control
Community's the future, and it's time to take hold

We're the change we want to see, we're the ones we've been waitin' for
We won't be held back, we're breakin' down the door

What you know about community?
What do you know?

(Verse 3)
Government's system, designed to control
But we the people, we're the ones with the soul
We come together, united we stand
Community's the answer, it's the master plan
We won't be divided, we won't be fooled
Community is future, and it's time to take the rule
We'll make our own decisions, we'll take our own path
Our community's the power, thats simple maths

It's a matter of fact;
I find it curious that;
We went from buddy, to pal, to mate, to bro...
Whilst friendliness went straight out of the window...

In social media halls, we gather round,
But connection's lost, in a sea of sound.
We crave the real; the authentic touch;
But it's hard to find, in a world of so much.

We went from buddy, to pal, to mate, to bro
But somewhere along the line, love and kindness went low.
We traded depth for banter and shallow greets


So let's revive the art of being kind;
Of looking deep, and leaving the superficial behind.
Let's cherish love, and nurture every soul
