Afro Child
From there is life then I know I'm able
There are more fruits
in the rich man's shampoo
than there is on the poor man's table
Ease out, Anthem
Nanananananana (Yeah)
Not one day a me life was paradise
Aaha
But I am sure there's Hope
from I'm alive (Once there's life there's Hope)
(Truman) Know me face nuff hungry days
cause me no have a choice
Father, a when me a guh rise
and make me mama smile?
(Kemo) Nuff a we brothers sodomize
for the dollar coin
Aaha
One month daddy gas done
and me no have a dime (No have a dime, me no have a dime)
Applewhaite
Different names, but a one story deh ya
all the while (Same Old Story)
Father, why it so hard fi rise as an Afro Child?
Cash P
Is it nature and nurture?
Tell me is it fate or a obeah?
Father did you made us to suffer?
Beg you no forsake us Jehovah
The cup full and me tears running over
How long we a guh dwell inna hunger?
I man was raised in a culture
where the people won't wake from there slumbaaaaaa
So the truth I'mma spread in these songs
Why should the few rule the many so long?
Me a tell you ghetto youth no depend on no one
This ya road ya no smooth ano fi everyone
Calculate every move every step a the plan
To me hunger no new yow breda me strong
Not even a juice me no get pon me strong
But we never confuse we deh Pon a mission
Not one day a me life was paradise
Aaha
But I am sure there's Hope from
I'm alive (Once there's life there's Hope)
(Truman) Know me face nuff hungry days
cause me no have a choice
Father, a when me a guh rise and make me mama smile?
Kemo
Nuff a we brothers sodomize for the dollar coin
Aaha
One month daddy gas done and
me no have a dime (No have a dime, me no have a dime)
(Applewhaite) Different names, but a one story
deh ya all the while (Same Old Story)
Father, why it so hard fi rise as an Afro Child?
Alright
All when tears inna your eyes breda More Life
Those who know fi apply pressure must shine
A high school me use to hide when a lunch time
Cause me couldn't afford fi buy nutn more while
But after a while me no show pride
Me just smile cause me know say a just time
CSEC come me grab nine what a profile
Mummy teeth show, smile bright gone a cloud nine
Now promotion a mad them
Dawg, learn fi earn from your talent
Pull this up, it's an Anthem
From Waterhouse go to Grants Pen
Not one day a me life was paradise
Aaha
But I am sure there's Hope from
I'm alive (Once there's life there's Hope)
(Truman) Know me face nuff hungry days
cause me no have a choice
Father, a when me a guh rise
and make me mama smile?
Kemo
Nuff a we brothers sodomize for the dollar coin
Aaha
One month daddy gas done and

Father, why it so hard fi rise as an Afro Child?
Yeaaaah
