What Is Slackness |
Want to know what slackness is? |
I’ll be a witness to that, unu come offa mi back |
A whole heap a things out there waan deal wid and unu nah see that |
Watch me now |
Mi seh |
Society a blame Lady Saw fi di system dem create |
When culture did a clap dem never let me through di gate, now |
As me seh «sex» den waan fi jump pon mi case |
But pick di beam out of your eye before you chat inna mi face |
Slackness is when the road waan fi fix |
Slackness, when government break dem promise |
Slackness, when politician issue out guns |
So di two party a shot dem one another down |
A syndicate of man waan fi flop mi career, saying |
«Lady Saw a lead di people dem astray» |
What happen to the nude beach we have inna Mo' Bay |
And we own Sunday show that is promoting gay? |
Dem a blame Lady Saw fi di system dem create |
When culture did a clap dem never let me through di gate, now |
As mi seh «sex» dem waan fi jump pon mi case |
Pick di beam out of your eye before you chat inna mi… |
When you say «slack» |
Don’t point yuh finger at me |
Government seh «Education, it is always di key», but |
Tell me now, how di hell could it be |
When di poorer class of people cya find di school fee? |
Light bill, dem waan raise it to a hundred percent |
Mi poor grand-mamma, she cya pay har rent |
Know mi a deejay fi help her situation |
But to how dem a flex, dem waan stop mi from nyam |
Dem a blame Lady Saw fi di system dem create |
When culture did a clap dem never let me through di gate, now |
As mi seh «sex» dem waan fi jump pon mi case |
Pick di beam out of your eye before you chat inna mi face |
Ban people? |
Trust me, dem wrong |
Di only ban mi can get must be my wedding ban' |
Remember dis, I’m a born Jamaican |
And no matta how dem try mi nuh lef mi island |
Dem a blame Lady Saw fi di system dem create |
When culture did a clap dem never let me through di gate, now |
As mi seh «sex» dem waan fi jump pon mi case |
Pick di beam out of your eye before you chat inna mi… |
Dem seh mi slack, but it’s a double standard ting |
Slackness mek nuff man gone a farrin |
International, a green dollars dem a bring |
But true mi nah bring enough dem tek set inna mi skin |
Dem a blame Lady Saw fi di system dem create |
When culture did a clap dem never let me through di gate, now |
As mi seh «sex» dem waan fi jump pon mi case |
But pick di beam out of your eye before you chat inna mi face |
Slackness is when the road waan fi fix |
Slackness, when government break dem promise |
Slackness, when politician issue out guns |
So di two party a shot dem one another down |
A syndicate of man waan fi flop mi career, saying |
«Lady Saw a lead di people dem astray» |
What happen to the nude beach dem have inna Mo' Bay |
And we own Sunday show that is promoting di gay? |
Dem a blame Lady Saw fi di system dem create |
When culture did a clap dem never let me through di gate, now |
As mi seh «sex» dem waan fi jump pon mi case |
But pick di beam out of your eye before you chat inna mi face |
Dem seh mi ban, but trust me, dem wrong |
Di only ban mi can get is my wedding ban' |
Remember, I’m a born Jamaican |
And no matter how dem try mi nuh lef mi island |
Dem a blame Lady Saw fi di system dem create |
When culture did a clap dem never let me through di gate, now |
As mi seh «sex» dem waan fi jump pon mi case |
But pick di beam out of your eye before you chat inna mi face |
