Ghetto Youth

by Anthony B

Lyrics
All bad mind people, we a sprinkle dem island dem powder
Anthony B sing
Woii, my Lord

See a ghetto youth a try, just give him the bly
No bother fight him, no way, no high
See a ghetto youth a move, give a helping hand to the groove
No bother try fi get him out of him shoes
See a ghetto youth a try, just give him the bly
No bother fight him, no way, no high
See a ghetto youth a move, give a helping hand to the groove
No bother try fi get him - Oh Lord, it never nice

No ghetto man no born in paradise
Anuh every Sunday chicken, peas, and rice
Gamble, racehorse, car park, and boom vice
Fight the true life, just try to live right
Hypocrite, bad mind, old parasite
Gone a Obeah man, dem gone burn bad light
Lord, dem things deh no right

See a ghetto youth a try, just give him the bly
No bother fight him, no way, no high
See a ghetto youth a move, give a helping hand to the groove
No bother try fi get him out of him shoes
See a ghetto youth a try, just give him the bly
No bother fight him, no way, no high
See a ghetto youth a move, give a helping hand to the groove
No bother try fi get him - Oh Lord

Ghetto youth sell clean and starve
Bush and car now fall, wash down car
Some elevate themselves and become superstars
Some cart up in truck, some in politics war
Begging fi Tivoli and Jungle fi park
Begging fi Southside and Baktu fi park
Begging fi Riverton, Waterhouse fi park
Portmore man stay far from dem war
Lord

See a ghetto youth a try, just give him the bly
No bother fight him, no way, no high
See a ghetto youth a move, give a helping hand to the groove
No bother try fi get him out of him shoes
See a ghetto youth a try, just give him the bly
No bother fight him, no way, no high
See a ghetto youth a move, give a helping hand to the groove
No bother try fi get him out of him shoes

Anthony B come fi teach
Look pon the heights weh all Capleton reach
Got Ten Commandment me want unuh fi keep
Babylon system turn nuff youth inna freak
Man a kill man fi all something to eat
Talking to North, South, West, and East
Please don't catch by the claw of the beast
Woii

See a ghetto youth a try, just give him the bly
No bother fight him, no way, no high
See a ghetto youth a move, give a helping hand to the groove
No bother try fi get him out of him shoes
See a ghetto youth a try, just give him the bly
No bother fight him, no way, no high
See a ghetto youth a move, give a helping hand to the groove
No bother try fi get him - Oh Lord, it never nice
