Busy Signal - Not Going Down lyrics

Mek dem know this, Jamaica!

We not going down, and dem huff an
Dem a puff and dem a frown
Can't tek di getto youth dem fi
Clown cause what goes around
Comes all the way around

Too much man a get slue
You betta watch what u say or do
Cause it just might happen to u
When u work hard but chosen a few (I)
Got some news today (I)
How much getto youths dem slay (I)
Got some things to say (I)
There must be a britter way

Tell dem fi stop from
Bus up di glac and put down the mac
Some a gawn like dem can't do
Without it to how the time a go nah
Thank god
For the life for the life weh we have
Cause we can't live without it

We not going down, and dem huff an
Dem a puff and dem a frown can't tek di
Getto youth dem fi clown
Cause what goes around
Comes all the way around

Too much man a get slue
You betta watch what u say or
Do cause it just might
Happen to u when u work hard but chosen a few

Some can't find food, to how the place a run
Some can't go a school
To how the place a run
Man a broke all the rule
To how the place a run
Tell dem nuh badda pick up the gun
Put it down

Palitition trick we
Then turn round kick we wham
To the education me pick'ne
Reality check, when di bills dem lick me
Mi call pan the fada quickly busy (busy)

We not going down, and dem huff an
Dem a puff and dem a frown can't tek di
Getto youth dem fi clown
Cause what goes around
Comes all the way around

Too much man a get slue
You betta watch what u say or
Do cause it just might
Happen to u when u work hard but chosen a few
(beat goin) let dem know this
We not going down, and dem huff an
Dem a puff and dem a frown can't tek di
Getto youth dem fi clown
Cause what goes around
Comes all the way around

Too much man a get slue
You betta watch what u say or
Do cause it just might
Happen to u when u work hard but chosen a few

Too much man a get slue
You betta watch what u say or do
Cause it just might happen to u
When u work hard but chosen a few (I)
Got some news today (I)
How much getto youths dem slay (I)
Got some things to say
(I) there must be a britter way

Tell dem fi stop from
Bus up di glac and put down the mac
Some a gawn like dem can't do
Without it to how the time a go nah
Thank god
For the life for the life weh we have
Cause we can't live without it

We not going down, and dem huff an
Dem a puff and dem a frown can't tek di
Getto youth dem fi clown
Cause what goes around
Comes all the way around

Too much man a get slue
You betta watch what u say or do
Cause it just might happen to u
When u work hard but chosen a few
