The Remain of The Drum

Lyrics

This is Burg City Records in poetic collaboration with The JB Studios Presents: -THE REMAIN OF THE DRUM OPENING DOMAIN — We acknowledge GOD of Juju—Main Domain, Rhythm untamed, before every rebel get labeled, before every flame get framed. Na Juju protect the lane from New Benin traffic to global geographic, every pressure becomes strategic, every pleasure makes you static, every treasure brings you close to allergic, every great structure remains ancestral in relic. From New Benin traffic to global geographic, pressure turn strategic, pleasure turn static, treasure turn automatic, structure turn ancestral relicmatic. No gimmick, no limit, no mimic in it—this rhythm legit in spirit. READ ALOUD MEMORY SEAL — Dele Giwa vision cut through political collision, precision journalism incision, we revise every lie in the night with ancestral decision. We research the wrong to recover the right, rewrite the dark till it learn to turn light. No silence can bury the voice in the night—truth still fight, truth still bite. THE HAMMER CODE Hammer the grammar. Scatter the chatter. Shatter the pattern. Master the matter. Build every ladder. Carry am farther. Harder and harder. Smarter and smarter. Brick after brick. Bar after bar. Scar after scar. Star after star. From remembrance grew responsibility. From responsibility grew vision. From vision grew Juju. From Juju grew Burg City Records. From Burg City Records grew the Amalgamation. From the Amalgamation grew Afro-Juju Culture. From Afro-Juju Culture grew Black Rhythm & Xoulful Blues. From Black Rhythm & Xoulful Blues grew the Blueprint of Juju Xound. From the Blueprint rose the Afro-Juju Continuum. From the Continuum rose the Galactic JiNG & BiNG Studios. From the Studios rose Juju's Magnum Poetrium. From Poetrium grew Research. Record. Report. CORE PRINCIPLE — Precision. Decision. Vision with incision. No prison fit break ancestral transmission. We no blame pain—we frame strain, rain turn grain, loss turn gain, chain turn reign again. Mrs. Olololo hold the terrain, broken chain turn living refrain. No erase memory lane, culture remain through every campaign of pain. We no fold, we no sold, we remold what was told in gold. CHAIN-LINK— Dem no fit blur our memory lane. Dem fit carry body— dem no fit carry spirit. Dem fit scatter village— dem no fit scatter rhythm. Dem fit burn library— dem no fit burn language. Dem fit rename nation— dem no fit rename foundation. Colonial smoke leave iron stain. Brick to brick—no trick, just fix, cadence click in multisyllabic mix. Pressure compress but never suppress, stress transgress into progress express. Dem no fit blur ancestral grain, colonial stain remain in vain, we cultivate sound inside the pain. Juju reclaim what time no tame, Afro flame inside name frame game. Again again—bend then blend, break then mend, rise then send. FREQUENCY IGNITION — TRANSMISSION CORE Now listen— Black Rhythm & Xoulful Blues in motion, Juju Xound code—ancestral devotion. No illusion—pure evolution, pain cross Atlantic ocean, return as motion, return as notion, return as restoration. Heartbeat street beat log drum repeat, bare feet concrete where memory meet. Root deep truth speak future meet, Afro-Juju frequency no know defeat. STREET MONITOR — Street no dey lie—character dey testify, when pressure high and survival dry eye. Area boys wrestle tomorrow’s fire, hunger design blueprint through desire. System heavy—people steady, spirit ready—mind already. From remembrance grew responsibility, from responsibility grew vision clarity, from vision grew Juju identity. CIVILIZATION STACK — From Juju grew Burg City Records flame, from Burg City grew Afro-Juju name. From Amalgamation sound became system, from system became wisdom rhythm. From Black Rhythm & Xoulful Blues ignition, to Juju Xound blueprint transmission, to Afro-Juju Continuum position. From JiNG & BiNG Studios vision, to Magnum Poetrium precision mission. Research. Record. Report. Truth no distort. AXIS BREAK — From Lasgidi bridge to New Benin ridge, we protect lineage like sacred privilege. No politic-rogue fit bend our brogue, no shadow log fit block our monologue. We master hammer, correct grammar, exit glamour, drop false drama. Street no dey lie—character testify, even when system try to modify truth supply. DOUBLE TIME CORE— Block one road—another open, mute one drum—another woken. Pressure heavy—spirit heavier, water rise—root rise deeper. GOD still root sound in infinite ground, Juju chain spin round, never lost, never drowned. Waffi break chain, Lasgidi hold domain, JiNG & BiNG maintain full terrain. FINAL AXIS SEAL Afro-Juju no trend—no end, no bend, no pretend, no suspend. Na living frequency. Na ancestral memory. Na eternal continuity. We no break. We no fake. We no shake. We awake.
