Yo da one yah a from me heart enuh
Tell you the truth me n'even a go talk too long
Just listen to the song you hear me a say
Hmmm- mmmm
The first loved one me lost a me grandmother Lord
And me bredda dead over the same yard
Me likkle niece and me nephew haffi run out a the yard
Fi a face dem dream yah a no easy none at all
Right now me tired fi see the mother dem a bawl
As day goes by me see another youth a fall
Jah know it stress me every time me get a call
Dem no stop put AK over the wall
Me sing oh Lord
Put a likkle better 'pon our side
Things like dem yah mek people paranoid
Me sing paranoid
Oh Lord
Put a likkle better 'pon our side
Things like dem yah mek people paranoid
Me sing paranoid
Mek me tell you how it start sufferation from day one
Politician dem a treat we like some alien
With dem big smile 'pon TV when our life just sad
Sad
Nuff ghetto youths dung a station
Me haffi mek it one day me a write two song
'Cause poverty have me a fight too long
Too long
Real ghetto youth nah move wrong
From Tivoli go straight roun' a Drewsland
Oh Lord
Put a likkle better 'pon our side
Things like dem yah mek people paranoid
Me sing paranoid
Oh Lord
Put a likkle better 'pon our side
Things like dem yah mek people paranoid
