Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sun's out, issa siren
Gun violence tiring
Rise up, issa crime scene
Dem ah try clean like hygiene
I wanna go chase my dream
But Babylon vampiring
Have dem eyes pon my brother life
Ah that's why dem stay conspiring
[Verse 2]
Unless at my concert, nuh want see no hands up
Yeah, no red shirt, nuh want see no handcuff
Let's just stay alive, yeah
Youths haffi find a way fi put the 9 away, aye
Peace and love finally
I've got to shine, you've got to shine like

Doop-doop, da, dum
Doop-doop, da, da, da, da
Mmm, mmm yeah
