It Bun Me |
Respect is going on tonight aspect |
Ward a man in a prison for all the a reason |
Can’t judge a man before you walk a mile inna him shoes |
Shags man say so |
Watch this |
It bun me fi see mi little brother in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
It bun me, another black man in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
Hurt me fi see mi little brother in a jail |
A 25 years to life and 50 million dollar bill |
Many time trying to escape and many times fail |
And eat him bread that is stale and get him lick with gippo |
Now the tracks are in tears, the boy face look pale |
Man them beat him with the baton, read him personal mail |
Him could a graduate Harvard and graduate Yale |
But him muma have rebut it 'cause she know her son fail |
It bun me fi see mi brother in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
It bun me, another black man in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
Before you |
Commit the crime make sure you can do the time |
No bother pair with no idiot 'cause them we drop dime |
Bank book have fi find in case you’re off and bare the find |
'Cause they will lock you in a prison |
Away from mankind |
Everyday you bark your face when you have no gal fi grain |
Inna one big, dotty parlour catch up and you’re behind |
It bun me fi see mi little brethrin in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
It bun me, another black man in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
Jamaica a the land of wood and water |
The wood might a free but you have fi pay fi water |
Everytime light go down they use the wood make fire |
Ressources use up the country |
Hand up and shout |
Another man lick, yell help, we neither see or go |
They here beat, be and bib well none of them no better |
Right a now we want a new brand prime minister |
We want a little ghetto youth with some bright idea |
It bun me fi see mi little brother in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
It bun me, another black man in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
Youths and youths hitch up on the corner |
Better you be a hustler than to be a smuggler |
If you is a smuggler you 'bout go kill all danger |
Better you sell some stockist, cough up all gleaner |
If you is a smuggler you carry a revolver |
You either behind the bar or six foot under |
It bun me fi see mi little brother in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
It bun me, another black man in a jail |
Bun me fi see mi brethrin behind the rail |
Bun me fi see mi little brother in a jail |
A 25 years to life and 50 million dollar bill |
Many time trying to escape and many times fail (ME) |
Eat him bread that is stale and get him lick with gippo |
The tracks are in tears, the boy face look pale |
Them beat him with the baton, read him personal mail |
Him could a graduate Harvard, graduate Yale |
Him muma have rebut it 'cause she know her son fail |
It bun me fi see mi little brother in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
It bun me, another black man in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
Jamaica a the land of wood and water |
Wood might a free but you have fi pay fi water |
Everytime light go down they use the wood make fire |
Resources use up the country |
Hand up and shout |
Another man lick, yell help, we neither see or go |
They here beat, be and bib well none of them no better |
Right a now we want a new brand prime minister |
Want a little ghetto-youth with some bright idea |
Want fi make the ghetto-people them start prosper |
Want fi make the ghetto-people them start live better |
Come take it from Shaggy deh round mike a lecture |
Put your hand inna the air and read the Holy Script |
Chaka |
'Cause it bun me fi see mi brethrin in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
It bun me, another black man in a jail |
Bun me fi see the youth stand up behind the rail |
