[Verse 1] Pull up to the gates, feel the bass line hummin' Mango tree shade where the real ones comin' Dominoes click on the table, rum in the cup Grandma's stew pot simmerin', we never rush The speakers stack high like a Babylon tower But this yard's got soul, feel the genuine power Neighbors lean over the fence, they know what's good This ain't just a spot, this is brotherhood [Pre-Chorus] You can feel it in the air when the sun drop low Fireflies and laughter, that Caribbean glow Open gate policy, but you gotta bring heart This is more than a party, this is living art [Chorus] Pree pon mi yard, come see what we build Soul in the rhythm, every corner get filled Pree pon mi yard, where the culture run deep From the sunrise grind to the bass in the street Pree pon mi yard, yeah, the vibe never fake This is home, this is love, this is ours to create Pree pon mi yard, pree pon mi yard [Verse 2] Aunty in the corner with the gold tooth smile Telling old stories in that island style Kids on the swing set, dirt on their knees Learning how to dance before they learn ABCs The grill smoke rising like prayers to the sky Jerk chicken seasoned with the tears and the pride We came from the struggle, but we planted these roots Now the whole block shaking in their dancing boots [Pre-Chorus] You can taste it in the food, feel it in the sound Generations of wisdom in this sacred ground No mansion on the hill could ever compete With the richness we got on this concrete street [Chorus] Pree pon mi yard, come see what we build Soul in the rhythm, every corner get filled Pree pon mi yard, where the culture run deep From the sunrise grind to the bass in the street Pree pon mi yard, yeah, the vibe never fake This is home, this is love, this is ours to create Pree pon mi yard, pree pon mi yard [Bridge] We don't need permission to celebrate life Through the hurricane seasons and the sacrifice Every nail we hammered, every seed we sowed Now the whole world asking 'bout this postal code From the island to the city, we carry the flame Different yard, same heart, we all play the game So when you see us shining, don't act surprised We been building kingdoms right before your eyes [Chorus] Pree pon mi yard, come see what we build Soul in the rhythm, every corner get filled Pree pon mi yard, where the culture run deep From the sunrise grind to the bass in the street Pree pon mi yard, yeah, the vibe never fake This is home, this is love, this is ours to create Pree pon mi yard, pree pon mi yard [Outro] The gate's always open if your spirit's right We go till the morning when the stars burn bright Pree pon mi yard, yeah, you know where to find me Where the soul meets the dancehall, that's where we be Pree pon mi yard... pree pon mi yard...
