Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why you even telling me?
It's not like I don't know
Repeating all this history
Running in circles like I got no place to go
So how you gonna say to me
The streets are paved with gold
When all the ins and outs
And every opportunity
No never be the richest on the road
[Verse 2]
People, can't you see what's happening people?
Ain't nobody laughing, oh no
But you know, that we don't stand a chance oh, oh
People, can't you see what's happening people?
Ain't nobody laughing, oh no
But you know, that we don't stand a chance oh, oh
[Verse 3]
And we ain't doing nothing wrong
But your finger points to blame
When shadows are your enemies
Tell me how you gonna run away
And oh well, judge me as you please
Oh nothing's ever what it seems
I cant, you care
That we don't stand a chance oh, oh
[Verse 4]
So people, can't you see what's happening people?
Ain't nobody laughing, oh no
But you know, that we don't stand a chance oh, oh
[Verse 5]
What you gonna do when jah kingdom come?
Cannot get away from the burning sun
And the fiyah ah go blaze
Ya better change your ways
But we don't stand a chance at all
[Verse 6]
People
People
Oh no
But we don't stand a chance at all
No
People
People
Oh no
You know, that we don't stand a chance at all
