Gangstagrass - Working On That Chain

 
0
Copied!
You can build yourself a prison
A chain of your own design
With cold steel and iron
Or gold and silver fine
Every day you make your choices
Money, fame or power
And the chain gets ever longer
With every misspent hour

And I'm still out here working, working, working…
Working on that chain

You can try to bring the world together
Build a bridge across the sea
And though it takes a lifetime
If you believe it, it can be
Every selfless act of kindness
When you give more than you gain
That's a hammer on the anvil
And a link upon the chain

And I'm still out here working, working, working…
Working on that chain

(Dolio The Sleuth)
Every inch is essential
Work hard, study up to cultivate the mental
Pushing ever forward up against the opposition
Steadily building, moving forward on my mission
Sharpening my vision
The chain motivates me
Every swing strengthening my arms till I break these
Searching through the links for the cracks they’re creating
Destiny presents an opportunity for taking my own destination
Waking up the latent abilities within me
Sacred sounds I create channel all the energy
Moving incrementally, achieving it eventually
The roadmap to the goal committed it to memory
Visions sent to me, let me know the time’s right
Ancestors showing me the errors in the hindsight
Spirits in the distance screaming at me “Get your mind right
Keep pushing and prepare for the divine right.”


When you fall in darkest waters
When disaster strikes you down
Tell me what will be your fate then
Will you swim or will you drown
Will they drag you to the bottom
Or pull you up and set you free
Look at the chains you're building
And tell me what you see

And I'm still out here working, working, working…
Working on that chain
Yard by yard, and link by link
Working on that chain
Ain't as hard as you think
Working on that chain
Working on that chain

Gangstagrass

The meaning of the song

Biography

Gangstagrass emerged from the creative cauldron of Brooklyn, New York City, a testament to the vision of its founding producer, Rench. This band of sonically adventurous musicians carved a new path in the music world by fusing the grit of hip-hop with the rural twang of bluegrass, crafting a genre all their own. Guiding this rhythmic convergence with a masterful hand is Rench himself, who stands as both leader and creative nucleus.

Rising to the limelight under an auspicious commission, Gangstagrass's foray into mainstream recognition came through the crafting of “Long Hard Times To Come,” an audacious theme song penned for the acclaimed television series “Justified” on FX Network. This song not only captured the essence of the show's narrative but also earned Gangstagrass an Emmy nod for “Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music,” marking a defining moment in their blossoming career.

The synergy within the group is palpable, with current ensemble members bringing their diverse talents to the mix. Dan Whitener infuses his stirring banjo melodies, R-Son the Voice of Reason adds the lyrical prowess of a seasoned emcee, Dolio the Sleuth weaves intricate stories with his rhymes, and Brian Farrow layers depth with his dexterous fiddle play. Together, these artists form a collective that bridges musical divides, resonating with fans across genre lines for a truly original sound.
