From Mi Born Vybz Kartel

[Intro:]
Jah
Wi a suffer so long (so long)
Don
Weh di system a go do, fi ghetto youth
Oyyy my lord
Jah kno (Jah kno) (Jah kno)

[Chorus:]
From me born we've been sufferin
Weh di system a provide fi di ghetto youth
Prison and di morgue
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg
How dem wicked to wi so
(Mi don't know)
Through mi live inna di ghetto so
Tell mi weh yuh haffi send mi mr. officer
Prison and di morgue
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg
How dem wicked to wi so

[Verse 1:]
From inna slavery this a di situation
Black people a face tribulation
Dem rape our madda pon di plantation
Fi mi four fadda a humiliation
Three hundred years later
Ghetto youths still haffi a fight fi di liberation
Black man powa inna dissipation
Inna this west minister legislation
Judge and di jury deliberation
Wid dutty Babylon inna collaboration
Mek prison full every station
Man a get sentence off of allegation
Di system vex when a ghetto youth rise
But when wi drop out, is a celebration
Uptown pretty like Picture Palma
But dung inna di ghetto inna degradation
