I Know Why lyrics with English Translations
No one should be blamed but dem
Hey, ghetto youths
They a treat the poor below average
Tell dem what we need now, talk up, speak up
Shall perish, and throw away like garbage
No hold back, nah nah now
A the Professor a me talking fi the people
Me nah go mek dem drive around like no vehicle
Words dem nah deal with the rights
We no go give up without put up a fight
God know...

Oh, it's so easy a fi, dem harder fi we The world need education, so I can be free Me waan see elevation for the nation Stop confuse the youth dem mind with your tel-lie-vision And technically speaking Me beg you unno put this inna unno mind and draw off a meeting Corruption stop, members dem get deleting Dem biggest plan is to get rich Dem gaining interest while dem in dead sleeping A devil dem...
