From Me Born (me Don't Know) Lyrics

[Intro:]
Jah

Weh di system a go do, fi ghetto youth
Oyyy my lord

[Chorus:]
From me born
We've been sufferin
Weh di system a provide fi di ghetto youth
Prison and di morgue
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg

Through mi live inna di ghetto so
Tell mi weh yuh haffi send mi mr. officer
Prison and demand
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg

[Verse 1:]
From inna slavery
This a di situation
Black people a face tribulation
Dem rape our madda pon di plantation
Fi mi four fadda a humiliation
Three hundred years later
Ghetto youths still haffi a fight fi di liberation
Black man powa inna dissipation
Inna this west minister legislation
Judge and di jury deliberation
Wid dutty Babylon inna collaboration
Mek prison full every station
Man a get sentence off of allegation
Di system vex when a ghetto youth rise
But when wi drop out, is a celebration
Uptown pretty like Picture Palma
But dung inna di ghetto inna degradation

[Chorus:]
From me born
We've been sufferin
Weh di system a provide fi di ghetto youth
Prison and morgue
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg
How dem wicked to wi so
(Mi don't know)

Through mi live inna di ghetto so
Tell mi weh yuh haffi send mi mr. officer
Prison and demand How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg
How dem wicked to wi so

[Verse 2:]
Ghetto youth inna class
Fi tek examination
But dem cyan hold a meditation
Tell mi now boss,
How youth a go learn pon hungry belly fi get a education
Daddy gone, separation
Mummy haffi hustle fi yuh elevation
Some a sell body fi pay di school fees,
School fi she a look, not repetition
Granny sick, waan medication
She nuh see nuh payment preparation
Plain board box fi she bury and dead
Not even nuh flowers, fi decoration
Slavery, dat cause sufferation
So mi aks di Queen, fi mi reparation
Tell di Pope seh, nuh apology
Mi a aks Europe fi mi reparation

[Chorus:]
From me born
We've been sufferin
Weh di system a provide fi ghetto youth
Prison and di morgue
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg
How dem wicked to wi so
(Mi don't know)

Through mi live inna di ghetto so
Tell mi weh yuh haffi send mi mr. officer
Prison and demand
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg
How dem wicked to wi so

From me born
We've been sufferin
Weh di system a provide fi ghetto youth
Prison and di morgue
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg
How dem wicked to wi so
(Mi don't know)

Through mi live inna di ghetto so
Tell mi weh yuh haffi send mi mr. officer
Prison and demand
How dem wicked to wi so
Dem waan wi dead like dawg
How dem wicked to wi so
