(Verse 1)
Well right yah now mi step out hard inna the road
Ready fi go lock the stree
Every corner, every crease
Come meck wi go trample the mees
The people dem cyaa live in peace
Murder rate a increase
Every killer, every theft
Baby cuh how you a edge mi teeth
Tell yo family, tell yo friend
Rastafari set the trend
Red, green and gold yea
That’s what yo represent
Delevaga seh to Joys Pen
The youth dem unite again
Break down the prison wall
The innocent free again
(Chorus)
I love to see the rising of the sun
Nuff never live to see the going gone
So when you rome the streets and rome the town
No stray, no stray
Whole heap a ghetto youth life fade away
(Verse 2)
So mi naw join dem conference
Mi mix mi inna dem none sense
Nuff a dem a worm bed
Keep dem at a arms head
The youth dem need a better medz
Sufferation it a pressure dem
Exum read the letter dem
Still dem come a beg wi friend
The system is a hold down
Waan the youths dem slow down
Don’t let dem push you round
Focus on how you grown
No bother line no wall, no fence
THe soldiers naw pitch no tent
Peace inna the residence
Killing no meck no sense
(Repeat Chorus)
(Verse 3)
The youths dem gone, dem gone a stray
They need a better way
Innocent lives have lost along the way
We need some time to pray
Guide us Jah, Protect this blessed land
Save the youths dem from the evil lands
(Repeat Chorus 2X)
(Repeat Verse 1 till fade)
