Ghetto Youth
Now when ya dedicated
To all a who seh
Mi nuh come out to nuttin'
Fi all a who
We nuh waan ghetto youth fi have nuttin'
Ooh, in de war wi nuh get in nuh line, no
In de war, seh de ghetto youth survive
Ghetto youth haffi make it one day
We nuh go de wrong way
No, no-no, no, no
Please believe me
Ghetto youth haffi make it one day
We nuh go de wrong way
No, no-no, no, no
Tell society, seh
Selassie nuh asleep
Ghetto youth a suffer in de streets and we leave, fi leave
Too much juvenile missy bleed
In our world, innocent killed by police in da freedom world
Society nuh believe all dem ting cah we do
A boss run an' smoke weed, give mi youth a chance
Fi go school and go read
Society a harvest a crime dem nuh need
Farmin' on de seventies, politican plant de seed
Selassie ay, your philosophy I lead
Christianity a tell mi sumtin' when mi nuh believe
What them seh fi rich, if a dey hurt mi haffi leave
Better them cah a fuss
Mi never writ against dem, ere fi escape us
Dem cyaan trick di ghetto youth
We haffi rise up
Ghetto youth haffi make it one day
We nuh go de wrong way
No, no-no, no, no
Please believe me
Ghetto youth haffi make it one day
We nuh go de wrong way
No, no-no, no, no
Tell society, seh
Politican fi gwaan, win election, dunno when dem run gaan
But ooh ghetto youth, ah but Sisi stretch our palm
Gaza, Syria, yuh not elite, it's a sham
Our artists giddie people wer dem gwaan?
But dey sed society a fight wid but dem cyaan
I sey wi buy ammunition an' fire raw
Ghetto youth if ya smart don't stray from di norm
College or for college you better stay pon de dam
Cos I wonder wha fi help us
Get way from dem
Ghetto youth, wi need mi one doctor, wi lion
Wid politician, den
Wi waan money in a wi pocket
Ghetto youth dem cyaan stop it
Unlike Isiah de prophet
An' my prophecy
Seh wi all gon' rise above de sky
Ghetto youth haffi make it one day
We nuh go de wrong way
No, no-no, no, no
Please believe me
Ghetto youth haffi make it one day
We nuh go de wrong way
No, no-no, no, no
