Born And Raised |
| Rasta |
| Wooy |
| No, no one |
| No one feel our pain |
| It driving the poor insane, insane |
| 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 want fi see d ghetto youth dem richer |
| So dem plan fi kill we out and tek we out a the pitcher |
| Ghetto youths, don’t be no snitcher |
| Ghetto girls jus' be wise and don’t be no bitcher |
| Keep your eyes on the prize and on the star that glitter |
| Keep your head and get a job I don’t you sitta |
| 'Cause I’m not from this place, you know I’m just a visitor |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| They ask where I’ve been |
| I said I’ve never been shopping |
| All I see is a coffin |
| Don’t ask 'bout 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 |
| 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 |
| 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, if only God reveals it) |
| It’s getting to my brain |
| (It's getting to my brain) |
| ('Cause no else can feel the pain) |
| And the bigger heads dem talk we things, just the same |
| (Only talk about the change) |
| (Everything remains the same) |
| 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 |
