Oh God!
Yeah
It's like you're moving in the wrong line
Everyday another ghetto youth life deh pon border line
Beenie Man 'longside Tristan Palmer, 'longside Dennis Brown
Me anuh no clown
Watch!
Everyday is a gunshot
And another one get shot
I don't like that
Every year is the same ting
God knows!
Tired of the killing and the shooting
Yeah
Another victim of the gun war
Slain in the street, man, it crucial
Eh, eh
When are we gonna stop the fighting?
Yeah
Under the suppression of crime act
Lord have mercy
Look how much gunman come
And how much gunman gone
All of you a rail up, all of you a kick up
All of you a move up and a gwan
Remember say, after a storm it is a calm
What we tired fi hear all shot up inna here
Everyday you nuh see another ghetto youth scare
We tired fi hear gunshot all inna here
Everytime you nuh see another ghetto youth scare
Cool badman, stop it
Put down the big zig-zag and all the 'matic
Leave the police dem alone, a time waan fi buss it
Hear Beenie Man deh pon the mic a chat lyrics
Try think conscious and listen to this
Wha' me say?!
No more blood no haffi run
Oh God!
No more skull no haffi burn

Man a man can reason

Man a man can reason

Look how much gunman come
And how much gunman gone
All of you a kick up, all of you a rail
And all of you a move up and a gwan
'Memba say, after a storm it is a calm
Youth man unuh fi think positive
Nuh get up everyday and think it so negative
And get up everyday and gwan like you wicked
Moving up and moving bad in your village
You always live good in the neighborhood you live
And hear Beenie Man, I am talking positive
Wha' me say?!
Tribal war, we've got to hold it down
Overcome, we must
Lord have mercy
'Cause everyday is a gunshot
Bare shot, bare shot
Yes, another brother, yes, him get drop
It hurts
And everyday is a gunshot
From the bottom of mi heart
And another sister get drop
Cool off and hold your 'matic and your 16 guage
Yes, every year it's the same thing
Beenie Man's here
Tired of the killing and the shooting
You know why?
I man say gun no have sense
A just the man weh deh behind it, 'hind it
Hahaha
No zig-zag no have sense
A just the man go a fire it, fire it
Hear why?
'Cause when the shot leave the nozzle, youth, it ago come straight
It nuh have no eye, nuh have no sense, while it don't got no break
To fight 'gainst the law you haffi have what it takes
Have a sound heart fi shot people inna face
Cool off and the gun no 'tall hand and waist
Beenie Man deh pon the riddim, don't make no mistake
So a all dem a kick up and a rail up and a gwan
