Ghetto Youths Rise lyrics with English Translations
[Intro] You no show the ghetto youth no love An' a wonder why dem shed the blood
[Verse 1] Seems like dem life has been wasted Is only blood, sweat and tears they have tasted And every day, the youths dem face death Inna the garrison dem bo yah, me no see no smiling face yet The youths dem frustrated So dem a show less love and more hatred So now-a-days, the gift of life no sacred A peer mislead juvenile me see a run the place red
[Chorus] Ghetto youths rise And realize keep your eyes 'pon the prize Doh believe none a dem lies Ghetto youths rise And realize when a ghetto youth dies A tear drops (full up me eyes) Ghetto youths rise And realize keep your eyes 'pon the prize Doh believe none a dem lies Ghetto youths rise And realize when a ghetto youth dies A tear drops
[Verse 2] The garrison fi link up like coach dem 'pon train No fire no more gun fi dem political campaign Stop, fight the turf war fi corners and lane And tek heed to life teachings and what it contain Then fi vanity weh smaller than a sand grain Man a cut the baby throat, shot out the old woman brain Me nah sell out, no matter how the journey hot A when five a we a share, one dumpling inna the pot Me stand firm
[Chorus] Ghetto youths rise And realize keep your eyes 'pon the prize Doh believe none a dem lies Ghetto youths rise And realize when a ghetto youth dies A tear drops (full up me eyes) Ghetto youths rise And realize keep your eyes 'pon the prize Doh believe none a dem lies Ghetto youths rise And realize when a ghetto youth dies A tear drops (full up me eyes)
[Verse 3] No love nah spread, me see peer bloodshed And me know that's not the way in which the youth was bread Yesterday me receive a call say Omar dead Him mother bawl, she bawl, she bawl, she hol' her head Hug up the body, her blouse become the colour red Me nah go tek the breath weh God give on to men Me nah go mek because a me him pickney dem no see him again Me nah deweet
[Chorus] Ghetto youths rise And realize keep your eyes 'pon the prize Doh believe none a dem lies Ghetto youths rise And realize when a ghetto youth dies A tear drops (full up me eyes) Ghetto youths rise And realize keep your eyes 'pon the prize Doh believe none a dem lies Ghetto youths rise And realize when a ghetto youth dies A tear drops
[Verse 2] The garrison fi link up like coach dem 'pon train No fire no more gun fi dem political campaign Stop, fight the turf war fi corners and lane And tek heed to life teachings and what it contain Then fi vanity weh smaller than a sand grain Man a cut the baby throat, shot out the old woman brain Me nah sell out, no matter how the journey hot A when five a we a share, one dumpling inna the pot Me stand firm
[Chorus] Ghetto youths rise And realize keep your eyes 'pon the prize Doh believe none a dem lies Ghetto youths rise And realize when a ghetto youth dies A tear drops (full up me eyes) Ghetto youths rise And realize keep your eyes 'pon the prize Doh believe none a dem lies Ghetto youths rise And realize when a ghetto youth dies A tear drops
