Pressure |
| Now this one is specially dedicated to all people living in poverty |
| And directed at all those people in high society |
| 'Cause when it comes to feeling pressure |
| None of them don’t feel it like we |
| Now dem no know 'bout pressure |
| In high society |
| Dem no know 'bout pressure |
| Dem no feel it like we |
| Well now is I man Pato Banton |
| And I man Daddy Tippa |
| We a chat pon microphone |
| Well as two blood brother |
| 'Cause we born in a the ghetto |
| As two sufferer |
| With we mother and we father |
| We sister and brother |
| Well I live in Birmingham |
| And I’m a Londoner |
| But is how we get together |
| Some of them a wonder |
| By coach by train |
| Or even by car |
| Rich man a catch plane |
| And them taking helicopter |
| 'Cause… |
| Well this lyric ain’t no joke |
| And it’s not funny |
| 'Cause what we’re gonna chat |
| Well is reality |
| 'Cause a whole heap of people |
| Dem inna poverty |
| And a whole lot of families |
| Dem inna agony |
| Inna Ethiopia |
| Well dem a dead fe hungry |
| And inna South Africa |
| Dem a fight to be free! |
| Free like the birds |
| Up inna the tree |
| And free like the fishes |
| Down inna the sea |
| We are British citizens |
| But this is not our country |
| 'Cause we’re a part of the ethnic minority |
| Now we’re gonna send this lyric to the Iron Lady |
| And the whole of the conservative party |
| 'Cause… |
| About 4 million unemployed in our country |
| Man a get redundant through machinery |
| Now living in the ghettos it don’t easy |
| We have to try a little hustling to make some money |
| That’s why we don’t blame a man fe sell sensi |
| And we can see why certain man dem a commit robbery |
| 'Cause the dole and (social) security just don’t ready |
| That’s why we feel it for the old and we feel it for the young |
| And we feel it for each and every family |
| Because dem nar spend no money on the community |
| Dem just a spend dem money on nuclear energy |
| From my point of view they must be getting ready |
| Getting ready for what? |
| World War Three |
| The rich will be safe and also Maggie |
| The Queen and the whole of de Royal Family |
| Dem a go catch a space ship and leave de country |
| Dem a go live on the moon and have space babies |
| But what about Pato and Tippa Irie |
| And the other 60 million people in the country |
| Dem no know 'bout pressure |
