Born & Raised lyrics with English Translations
[Intro] Daseca Rasta Woii No No one No one feel our pain It's driving the poor insane, insane
[Verse 1] Me a talk 'bout the poor, the poverty and the pressure Can't tek it no more, too much youth 'pon stretcher Dem no really waan fi see the ghetto youth dem richer So dem plan fi kill we out and tek we out a the picture Ghetto youths, don't be no snitcher Ghetto girls jus' be wise and don't be no b*tcher Keep your eyes on the prize, be the star that glitter Keep your head up, get a job, I don't waan you sit yah And to how me see the race a run, it's gon' be bitter For the strongest a the strongest and the fit a the fitter I was born and raised to be no quitter
[Chorus] I was born and raised enuh In the ghetto for years and years enuh My people cry tears and tears enuh No food for days and days enuh I was born and raised enuh In the ghetto for years and years enuh No food for days and days enuh My people cry tears and tears enuh
[Verse 2] They ask me where I've been I said I've never been shopping All I see is a coffin Don't ask about Mark, police shot him It's just the way of the system They eradicate every victim Just keep the faith, I'm insisting All my beautiful people, are you listening?
[Chorus] I was born and raised enuh In the ghetto for years and years enuh My people cry tears and tears enuh No food for days and days enuh I was born and raised enuh In the ghetto for years and years enuh No food for days and days enuh My people cry tears and tears enuh
[Bridge] No one feels our pain No one feels our pain that we're feeling Pain, that we're feeling It driving the poor insane, insane, yeah You can never know, only if God reveals it It's getting to my brain Now it's getting to my brain And the bigger heads dem talk dem things, it just the same Only talk about the change Everything remains the same
[Chorus] I was born and raised enuh In the ghetto for years and years enuh My people cry tears and tears enuh No food for days and days enuh I was born and raised enuh In the ghetto for years and years enuh No food for days and days enuh My people cry tears and tears enuh
[Outro] Born and raised I was born and raised Cry tears for days Cry tears, to the years... Born and raised Cry tears for days
