Yaadcore Ghetto Youths Lyrics
Intro
Them cyaan say dem never know
A nuh bread but you know the ting hard like dough
Chorus
Ghetto youths no stray then
Cah when mi check ah stock ah listen all the reasoning and see ah Glock a raise them
And me go sight up pon the news how much heckle and kotch deh inna Salem
Watch dem ah step wid the Ak47 bright in ah May Pen (noo)
Selassie I, beg you save them
Verse 1
Cau’ this ah the Land weh me love, Land weh me born
Land weh me ancestors plant corn
Chop cane field from dusk till dawn
When Marcus Garvey a shawn like storm
Tеnor Saw buss when him ring de alarm
Bob Marley shot dе sherrif so him cyaan simmer down
Nuh make nuh politician take unuh fe clown
Ah could a six foot six inna de
Chorus
No waan de ghetto youths fe stray then
But when me check ah stock ah listen all the reasoning me see a Glock ah raise them
And den me sight up pon de news how much heckle and kotch deh inna Salem
Watch dem ah step wid de Ak47 bright in ah May Pen (noo)
Selassie I, beg you save them
Verse 2
Listen me
United we stand up, like when Nanny and Sam Sharpe dem did a plan up
Balance everyting like Mortimer Planno
Wouldn't tek me bredda life fe a dollar
When me see the likkle drop ah sentence pon de white collar
Ah wouldn't be a killer, say I'd rather be a scammer
Truck load a money fe me daddy and me mother
Yes, a so we fe ah love we one and other
Chorus
Nuh waan de ghetto youths fe stray then
Cah when me check ah stock ah listen all the reasoning and see ah Glock ah raise dem
And then me sight up pon the news how much heckle and kotch deh inna Salem (pon TVJ)
Watch them a step wid the Ak47 bright in ah May Pen (no)
Selassie I, beg yuh save them
Verse 3
Say lowe the innocent, lowe the gang war
From school days, you and yuh bredda did a par
Now a likkle flare up gwaan, ah marrow pon tar
Big threat a send, drive by in ah car
Say yuh ah go catch me and me family ah par
One a we a coulda deh a funeral or bar
Hear me no star, (dat yuh say) hear me no star
Tek me off a yuh radar
Chorus
And no bodda stray then
But when me check ah stock ah listen all the reasoning and see ah Glock ah raise them
And den me sight up pon de news how much heckle and kotch deh inna Salem (pon TVJ)
Watch dem ah step wid the Ak47 bright in a May Pen (no)
Selassie I, beg yuh save dem
