Lyrics Hold We Down - VYBZ Kartel

Hold We Down

All when kingfish and every FBI a look fi mi
Rvssian have di coke inna di boiling pot a cook fi mi
Jordan, mi nuh believe seh ghetto youth control dem destiny
Nuff ah wi deh a jail dat mean di judge decide what’s best fi wi
Dat’s why mi hustle hard try fi mek money
Lawyer fee nuh cheap mi nah guh stress mi madda fi get money
Jah know three and a half years di judge bwoy get eddie
Him nuh si him early twenties and dem gone wid it already
Weeee (ghetto youths) nah guh mek dem hold (dem fi let wi go)
Weeee down (we nuh profit it) nah guh mek dem hold (dem caan
Dweet) weeee down, nah guh mek dem hold weeee down (wi nuh profit)
Wi nah guh mek dem hold (dem caan dweet) weeee
Blood nah stop run like runner pon di trackfield
Until wi lifestyle dem understand and
Feel how hungry belly plus nothing inna pot feel
Weh politician owe bramma one
Fi tek care of all di hungry kids dem in maxfield
Fi find a roof and a hot meal
That’s why dem a find out how di uzi and di macs feel
Dem caan stop di youths from stop steal
We (ghetto youths) nah guh mek dem hold (dem fi let wi go)
We down (we nuh profit it) nah guh mek dem hold (dem caan
Dweet) weeee down, nah guh mek dem hold weeee down (wi nuh profit)
Wi nah guh mek dem hold (dem caan dweet) weeee
Dem a hold wi down inna di ghetto so long
From mi born grown inna quarrel
Ah di system make wi nuh trust nuh man
Wi grow like grab inna barrel
Food price a ride wi light jaw just hung
Mi guh bang fi draw but mi draw nil
Mi love thugs music but if you nah sing dat
Song ya nuh sing nuh song
Weeee (ghetto youths) nah guh mek dem hold (dem fi let wi go)
Weeee down (we nuh profit it) nah guh mek dem hold (dem caan
Dweet) weeee down, nah guh mek dem hold weeee down (wi nuh profit)
Wi nah guh mek dem hold (dem caan dweet) weeee
Weee nah guh mek dem hold weee down, yow russian head concussion
Believe mi weeee (ghetto youths) nah guh mek dem hold (dem fi let wi go)
Weeee down (we nuh profit it) nah guh mek dem hold (dem caan
Dweet) weeee down disparity, nah guh mek dem hold weee down
Wi nah guh mek dem hold weee down dem caan dweet
