Postcode War Lyrics

Da da day da da day da cry fi di youths


When i was a youth growing up in England we had more unity by far, Black youths from different areas coulda hang around and a spar, Yes we might have some differences but it never really came to war , We knew who and we knew what we were fighting for


Cant overstand dis ya postcode war Can’t get mi head around di postcode war

We did our share of fighting but we fight against di system We fight against injustices and we fight against racism We fighting for our freedom and we knew dat we would win Nowadays dis youth he thinks his enemy looks like him, thinks his enemies identical to him


When i say identical I don’t just mean skin tone alone Same clothes same car same type a girl same gold same mobile phone, If you do not look like him then he might leave you alone If you look like him den you can come into his zone, even though you are from the same town cha


Cant overstand dis ya postcode war Can’t get mi head around di postcode war


The youth dem nowadays have been brainwashed to hate dem selves, Programmed to think that life is just material and wealth, Think they’re in control but are being controlled by someone else, Programmed to only care about themselves, desensitised the feelings that are felt

Instead of things getting better it seems like things are getting worse The youths are getting younger who are afflicted by this curse Me seh, too much little innocent youth dem just a end up being carried inna hearse The youth dem they should not be passing first, seems to me like things gone in reverse


Cant overstand dis ya postcode war Can’t get mi head around di postcode war

i say love to every youth inna every area, Me nuh care if your living in a mansion or if your living in a housing scheme No areas not inferior nor superior, when i say dat I’m talking about thehuman Not the buildings nor the landscapes nor machines. Well i gotta be optimistic so i do hope and i pray, These words can be of assistance to the youths dem of today, If they only knew how great they are they’d go a different way , Unite and stop the fighting’s what i say, no matter where you come from its ok


Cant overstand dis ya postcode war Can’t get mi head around di postcode war

The one you thinks your enemy is just the same as you, He’s not the one who’s stopping you from getting through If you want to know your enemy I’ll tell you what to do, Look in the mirror now that enemy is you, look inna the mirror now that enemy is you
