REBEL CONFESSION Kountry Kingston ft. Blackwater (Intro — rain falling, distant church bell, low cello, train rumble) Blackwater (spoken): Tell me something… After all this… You still believe? (Bass drops) ⸻ (HOOK — BOTH) Blackwater: We don’t talk about the scars… KK: We just carry them… Blackwater: We don’t talk about the ghosts… KK: We just bury them… Both: This that rebel confession… Different roads… Same scars… ⸻ (VERSE 1 — BLACKWATER) (deep UK pressure cadence) Look… Rain hit hard on the same old block Same church bell and the same dead stops Same old boys in the same dark clothes Trying hide pain that everybody knows I seen money turn brothers strange Seen loyalty disappear for change Seen good hearts turn cold as stone That’s why I move like I’m always alone And everybody wanna talk about wins Nobody wanna talk about sins Nobody wanna talk about nights Looking in the mirror starting fights Cause the city made promises Then buried them quick Now everybody carrying ghosts Trying not to get sick ⸻ (HOOK — BOTH) Blackwater: We don’t talk about the scars… KK: We just carry them… Blackwater: We don’t talk about the ghosts… KK: We just bury them… Both: This that rebel confession… Different roads… Same scars… ⸻ (VERSE 2 — KOUNTRY KINGSTON) (deep outlaw reggae cadence) I hear you… But I still believe in something Maybe that’s my curse Everybody see the fire Nobody see the burn first Everybody see the crowd Nobody see the weight Everybody want a leader Till it’s time to carry fate And I done lost people too Some never came back home Some still walking round alive But somehow still gone And every song ain’t celebration Every smile ain’t real Some nights I sit alone Wondering how I’m supposed to feel But if we stop believing What the hell we got left? Just smoke… And ghosts… And another held breath… ⸻ (HOOK — BOTH) Blackwater: We don’t talk about the scars… KK: We just carry them… Blackwater: We don’t talk about the ghosts… KK: We just bury them… Both: This that rebel confession… Different roads… Same scars… ⸻ (VERSE 3 — BLACKWATER & KK) Blackwater: You ever wonder if they’re right? KK: Every day. Blackwater: You ever think about walking away? KK: Every day. Blackwater: Then why don’t you? KK: Because somebody has to stay. (Beat drops harder) Blackwater: Damn… Maybe that’s the difference. KK: Nah. Maybe that’s the burden. Blackwater: And if the world never changes? KK: Then we still fought for it. Blackwater: And if nobody remembers? KK: Then we still lived it. ⸻ (BRIDGE — DARK BUILD) (rain intensifies, strings rise) Blackwater: No saints in London… KK: No kings in Kingston… Blackwater: No easy roads… KK: No easy victories… Both: Just scars… Just stories… Just survivors… ⸻ (FINAL HOOK — BIGGEST MOMENT) Blackwater: We don’t talk about the scars… KK: We just carry them… Blackwater: We don’t talk about the ghosts… KK: We just bury them… Both: This that rebel confession… Different roads… Same scars… This that rebel confession… Different roads… Same scars… ⸻ (Outro — rain, harmonica, train whistle) Blackwater: London rain… KK: Kingston fire… Blackwater: Still standing… KK: Still fighting… Both: OUTLAWS OUTSIDE. 🌧️⚔️🔥👑
