Promises - Bugle

When di youths dem cyaa find no money fi buy dem dinner

Cyaa replace di clothe weh dem inna

Wa yuh a go tell dem seh?

Yeh, when a yuh did meck dem a bag a promises

When di youths dem cyaa find no money fi feed dem son

Yuh did give dem a gun, tell mi wa yuh a go tell dem seh?

When a yuh did promise dem things

A must a true wi have a whole heap a patient like an hospital

Why dem treating us like an hospital

Yea dem just a deal wid wi wicked so

Because dem well waan wi dead quick so

Mi know dem waan fi put wi under di earth fi rest

Confinement prison or house arrest

But Jah, Jah, send a mercy for di merciless

Waan this to be ma last sight

Dem a plan and God a wipe

That’s why mi pray to Jah wi no get another yuh

Cause yuh a pree like yuh no have mother to

Youth dem did alright and a live dem life

Yuh use dem now and a seh dem a bother yuh

Promise dem di world just to get to the top

Gi dem illegal gun, then yo get to di cop

But member yuh have son and yuh a meck blood run

A just hope yuh watch your back

Times gonna catch up on yuh

And I know Jah is watch up on yuh

So one day di doors gonna lock up on yuh

Yeh fi all di evil deeds weh yuh a do

Yes I know times gonna catch up on yuh

And I know Jah is watch up on yuh

So one day di doors gonna lock up on yuh

Yeh fi all di evil deeds weh yuh a do
