[Vybz Kartel - The System lyrics]
Tics gaza mi seh
Jamaica di system (Mi nuh like politics)
Dem ah evil believe mi people
Life coulda easier a just true society
Whoo response fi di ghetto yute dem?
Babylon a execute dem
Di system corrupt mi sons & tek
Mi daughters & prostitute dem
Nuff a mi friend dem send go heaven
From Dovecot back to May Pen
A warfare corrupt di system
Place pegshell pon di pitney playpen
Who response fi set di way fi dem?
Di system block di way fi dem
Di yute dem a Waterhouse
Di politician dem doh really care fi dem
When a one man wise up di scheme dem seh
Him is a don & dem slaughter dem
But when one ghetto yute life gone
Is a hundred more ghetto yute ah born again
Hmmm mi baby wah feeding
Mi haffi try hussle dat by this evening
Mi nex' baby madda leff mi yute a mi yard
She seh time to hard fi she keep him
Jackass tell dah world yah nuh even
5 grand a week dats di life weh mi living
And a oneting society believe in
Whole a we a thief & gunman
Whoo response fi di ghetto yute dem?
Babylon a execute dem
Di system corrupt mi sons & tek
Mi daughters & prostitute dem
Nuff a mi friend dem send go heaven
From Dovecot back to May Pen
A warfare corrupt di system
Place pegshell pon di pitney playpen
(Mi nuh like politics)
Wah go happen to mi daughter?
Tell mi weh di system haffi offer?
Anuh everybody cyan sing or run
Fast like Usain or Asafa
And a nuff smart ghetto
Yute drop outta school
Cah nuff ah dem never have no sponser
Den dem ah wonder why di crime &
Violence tek over society like cancer hmm
You shouldn't see di man a hussle pon di road
& tek out yuh baton & beat him
And police ah poor people pitney too suh
Mi a wonder a wah sweet him
No light bill so deer & a
One light company inna di system
How water rate suh & ah
One company de windi providing o-o-o-ooooo
Whoo response fi di ghetto yute dem?
Babylon a execute dem
Di system corrupt mi sons & tek
Mi daughters & prostitute dem
Nuff a mi friend dem send go heaven
From Dovecot back to May Pen
A warfare corrupt di system
Place pegshell pon di pitney playpen

Whoo response fi di ghetto yute dem?
