Not Going Down
Mek dem know this, Jamaica!
We not going down, and dem huff an
Dem a puff and dem a frown
Can't tek di getto youth dem fi clown
'Cause what goes around, comes all the way around
Too much man a get slue
You betta watch what u say or do
'Cause it just might happen to u
When u work hard but chosen a few
(I)
Got some news today
(I)
How much getto youths dem slay
(I)
Got some things to say
(I)
There must be a britter way
Tell dem fi stop from, bus up di glac
And put down the mac
Some a gawn like dem can't do without it
To how the time a go nah
Thank god for the life for the life weh we have
'Cause we can't live without it
We not going down, and dem huff an
Dem a puff and dem a frown
Can't tek di getto youth dem fi clown
'Cause what goes around, comes all the way around
Too much man a get slue
You betta watch what u say or do
'Cause it just might happen to u
When u work hard but chosen a few
Some can't find food, to how the place a run
Some can't go a school, to how the place a run
Man a broke all the rule, to how the place a run
Tell dem nuh badda pick up the gun, put it down
Palitition trick we, then turn round kick we
Wham to the education me pick'ne
Reality check, when di bills dem lick me
Mi call pan the fada quickly busy (busy)
We not going down, and dem huff an

'Cause what goes around, comes all the way around
Too much man a get slue
