Poor People

Dem for the people really?
Huh, huh, huh, yo
Have on to yuh unfortunate self
Lead to insanity poor people killin themselves fi vanity
It's Rodney dem gettin angry

It's all about humanity

Poor people tell me how yuh a go gain
If everyday yuh get up politicians yuh a blame
Run to di media an go launch yuh complain
A lick on di leaders when tings still are di same

Poor people tell me how yuh a go gain
If everyday yuh get up politicians yuh a blame
Run to di media an go launch yuh complain
A lick on di leaders when tings still are di same

It's just out a di bag whole heap a secrets bursting
If yuh stay a back deh how di hell yuh fi verse him
Everyday yuh get up politician yuh cursing
Politician yuh cursing situation worsen
But a nuh lie, if yuh nuh try, well yuh nah go get nuh bligh
All a look like yuh waan see bread drop from di sky
Everyday dem get up an see di same hollow point
Mi hear seh Shane get freed him go gone test di fry
Well it nuh funny it's mine to sink some orange an pine
An mek yuh own money an a nuh try tek away mine
Yuh got to mek pay, while di sun shine
Nuh stretch out yuh hand like yuh blind

Else mi waan know how yuh a go gain
If everyday yuh get up politicians yuh a blame
Run to di media an go launch yuh complain
A lick on di leaders when tings still are di same

Poor people tell me how yuh a go gain
If everyday yuh get up politicians yuh a blame
Run to di media an go launch yuh complain
A lick on di leaders when tings still are di same

Warlord di role model footstep oonu fi follow
Show di yute dem di light when di path get narrow
An tell dem nuh chew more den weh dem can swallow
Nuh go outta deep if yuh see mi in di shallow
Wedda di eagle or di hawk show wi a better tommorrow
Mi nuh waan fi trust mi nuh waan fi borrow mi nuh
Waan nuh man fi blow mi marrow
Yuh nuh see seh gosling limpin it a fly like a sparrow
Afta success mi shoot like an arrow

Mi waan know how yuh a go gain
If everyday yuh get up politicians yuh a blame
Run to di media an go launch yuh complain
A lick on di leaders when tings still are di same

Poor people tell me how yuh a go gain
If everyday yuh get up politicians yuh a blame
Run to di media an go launch yuh complain
A lick on di leaders when tings still are di same

It's just out a di bag whole heap a secrets bursting
If yuh stay a back deh how di hell yuh fi verse him
Everyday yuh get up politician yuh cursing
Politician yuh cursing situation worsen
But a nuh lie, if yuh nuh try, well yuh nah go get nuh bligh
All a look like yuh waan see bread drop from di sky
Everyday dem get up an see di same hollow point
Mi hear seh Shane get freed him go gone test di fry
Well it nuh funny it's mine to sink some orange an pine
An mek yuh own money an a nuh try tek away mine

Else mi waan know how yuh a go gain
If everyday yuh get up politicians yuh a blame
Run to di media an go launch yuh complain

Poor people tell me how yuh a go gain
If everyday yuh get up politicians yuh a blame
Run to di media an go launch yuh complain
A lick on di leaders when tings still are di same
