Intro: Who, Mi nuh like how dem a treat di ghetto youth dem inno Chuh !, Woi woi, woi woi woi woi woi Chuh ! (Ghetto youths dem a bawl, long eyewater a fall) Cho Tell mi if yuh ever walk di streets of the ghetto dem before Fi see who is unsafe from secure The lifestyle of my people they fail to recognise Do you know what it takes for ghetto people to survive Did you ever walk through August Town at all Fi hear the comments of the people whey a bawl Wonder what it takes for you to realise How Riverton city ghetto youths dem survive 1. Dats why we a king from wi dey home inna Africa Once wi a trod through Rome wi a warrior Whey wi fi get all now it nuh deliver Our share unno tek an a dis wi after When yuh money start rise yuh keep yuh secret secure When it start fall yuh mek it known to the poor Soon you'll be coming back for more All when yuh cup full a wi yuh ignore 2. Then yuh commenting all the while about the places we live Degrade wi lifestyle when yuh make it what it is Have reaping violence in many cities Now I dream to stronghold in many village Now who will protect those who truly want peace How can we keep the peace when there is no peace to keep This time I take no defeat Oh Lord, Im inclined to stand on my feet. 3. Well then Mr. Rich, come offa di poor man's feet How is it the strong want to downpress the weak Without those who clean the sanitary and sweep the street Yuh cities would be mucky, yuh nuh see it Who you, promise the city flation below Yet it increase everywhere dat we go Is this the way that yuh love a show Hurting others and yuh hold on so.
