Poor People Land lyrics
[Intro]
Mi caan believe it.
Government waan fi move mi.
Mi tun refugee inna mi owna country.
But a long long time mi live yaso cant go no weh.
Dem really tek poor people fi fool, dem really tek poor people fi fool.
[Chorus]
Oui misa babylon a weh u get da system yah from?
buldosa dung poor people land jah know seh mi nah vote again (no sah)
Cah di MP don't give a damn.
A weh u get da system yah from?
bout seh mi live pon squatta land.
True mi don't rich like Mattalon (no sah).
Mi a born Jamaican
[Verse 1]
Mi nave no weh fi go, mi born and me grown yah so inna di ghetto.
Bigga heads beg u a bligh no mi caan buy a house uppa cherry garden.
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust, the tribulation inna di ghetto is a must.
Mi neva qualify fi no house in trust cah mi loose all a mi money inna cash plus.
But mi know seh mi a born jamaican mi deh yah from slavery as a African.
Sumadey tell me weh Mattalon come from fi own suh much land inna wi island.
Misa Chin go back a Japan cah Jah jah mek yah fi di black man.
From Morrant Point to Negril Point from St Thomas to Westmoreland.
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 2]
A yah so mi pickney born so dem no know nowhere else.
Government care bout dem den nuh cah mi know you no care fi di parents.
Mi beg yuh lease mi da piece a land yah.
Nave no problem fi pay rent.
Runcome give mi your eviction notice cah poor don't have no patience.
Mi know seh mi a born Jamaican mi deh yah from slavery as a African.
Sumadey tell mi weh Mattalon come from fi own suh much land inna wi island.
Misa Chin, go back a Japan cah Jah Jah mek yah fi di black man.
From Morrant Point to Negril Point from St Thomas to Westmoreland.
[Repeat Chorus]
[Intro (Chorus)]
