Lyrics
Yah hear me uncle?
Lord of mercy
See the amount of da investment weh me see a gwaan now
'Geddon deh
White necks and private sectors that a take over
This governmental system only a create
Bare prostitutes, and robbers and thieves Iyah
Wooh-oooh-eeh
The amount of factory Gramercy closed down the other day
A 'Geddon chant
And people [??] always
Wo-ooh-eeh!
A worries and problems
But ghetto youths are working hard to survive
With politician still coming on with bribe
But then the youths are holding on
A worries and problems
Ca' ghetto youths are working hard to survive
But politician still coming on with bribe
But then the youths are holding on
Heey, Woi!
As far as my eyes can see
This island is in devastation
See what I mean
And only thing that they can do
Is try to convince this nation
So them come around time to time take renumeration
Just to call them election
And the debts that them owe to IMF organization
Leave us in desolation
Hey!
And a worries and problems
'Cause ghetto youths are working hard to survive
But then the system is just giving them a fight
But all the youths are holding on
A worries and problem
When di youths are working hard to survive
But then the system is still giving a fight
Ghetto youths are holding on
Oh! Lord!
The city is congested with robbers and thieves
And so many homeless youths got nowhere to sleep
I also see them eating out of rubbish heaps
And cocaine and smugglers keep on roaming the streets
Wo, woi!
And a worries and problems
'Ca' ghetto youths work hard fi survive
But then the system keep on giving them fight
But ghetto youths are holding on
A worries and problem
'Ca ghetto youths nuh get no bly
Give the youths a try!
Give the youths a try
Hey, mi a tell you now Iyah
You see di youths of today
A di man and woman of tomorrow
Trust me
And when Babylon set a system
Where youths cyaan get nuh work
Selassie I know dem a turn to the gun
And prostitution
Selassie I know Iyah
Me see di youths dem a hold on strong
Say di youths!
Me see di youths dem a hold on strong
Say di youths!
Me see di youths dem a hold on
Wo-eeh! Wo-eeh!
'Cause a worries and problems
'Ca' di youths a work hard fi survive
But then di system keep giving a fight
And I see...
Oh! Lord, well..
As far as my eyes can see
This island is in devastation
And only thing that they can do
Is try to convince this nation
So them come around everyday
And take dem renumeration
To call dem next election
And the debts that them owe to IMF organization
Leave us in desolation
And I see..
Worries and problems
'Cause ghetto youths are still holding on strong
Then they stick to the right not the wrong
I love how dem go along
Worries and problems
Ghetto youths are still getting a fight
But them holding strong to the vibes..
