Vybz Kartel - Money Over War lyrics

Yow Arif dis thing a get out a hand
So u see fi di '08 & beyond
Me waa house and car
Ghetto yute a money ova war

Hey, So who can't hear, dem going to feel
No shoot, nuh kill, nuh rob, nuh steal
Too much yute fall pon battlefield
A badman a talk me just a keep it real

All shower yute all spanglers yute
Addi tired fi buy bere funeral suit
Listen to di Teacha, di truth a di truth
Jamaica nuffi run like Beirut
Wen dem sen fi di military troop
Nuh matter weh yuh vote everybody get shoot
Di system a bawl seh di yute dem a coot
But dem bere di fruit's so a dem is di root
Nuh shame fi di yute dem yuh produce
If Daddy neva idle di son couldn't loose
But every likkle ting dem blame artist
We are di scape goat, di golden egg goose
Sipping Vybz Rum wid sweet orange juice
Me big up Portia and di Honorable Bruce
Big up everybody party
But my party a di one weh a keep in a Laroose
Nuff ghetto yutes waa work fi a
Dues & cya find a job
Hey, a wah do some fools build more factory
Build more schools & give black
Pickney di necessary tools
If nuttin nah gwaan
How u expect seh di man dem
Nah go bruk di rules? Every party come in
We a di victim
Unite and dun wid di system, nuh?

Mother bawling son in a di warring
Wen body falling a we a dead, a we a dead
Copper corn him madden haffi balm him
Cemetery a morning a we dead, a we a dead

Wah day weh me see pon di news
It mek Addi vex, so me done couple Panadol
Couple Comtrex 2008 an bere yute a dead
Addi waa see di 3000 like Soltex
Please ghetto yutes watch how yuh flex
A nuh every likkle thing yuh fi puff up & vex
Send fi guns & hear comes next
A gunshot & a duppy come next
Two yute dead, couple unda
Arrest, when Kingfish come
Kill bird out a nest
Yuh nah nuh lawyer, charges a press
Mummy drop a grung and pop off bloody dress
What next? Nuh visit yuh nuh get
Cause mummy cya even buy 1 cigarette
Every man a dead, yuh nuh see yuh eye shet
Jamaica soon come in like Immaculate
In a 7 years 10, 000 death
But a just bere ghetto yute skin a get wet
Shooting, stabbing and chop with machete
We nuh matter weh di cause
Is stopping of breath
Put down di AK, Macky an Tek
& tek up di money ting, cashing of check
Fi sen u go skool, watch u parents a sweat
Your life, but yuh a dem dearest asset
Yuh dig?

Mother bawling son in a di warring
Wen body falling a we a dead, a we a dead
Copper corning madden haffi balm him
Cemetery a morning a we dead, a we a dead
