Sufferah

Huh! Leaders listen to these words I'm utterin
Firmly, I ain't stutterin
Look around can't you see my people sufferin
The future is weak and it's gutterin, well!

Born as a sufferah grew up as a sufferah
Struggle as a sufferah mek it as a sufferah
Fight as a sufferah survive as a sufferah
Yutes inna di ghetto well di most a dem a sufferah
Nuff a mob police to clear dem rights true dem a sufferah
Innocent da one yah deh fi tek care a di sufferah
Eat as a sufferah di pressure really sufferah
Mi a tell yuh mi a prime minister fah di sufferah
Who know we nuh parliament give somethin to da sufferah
Who nuh wait a government provide fah di sufferah
Food fah di sufferah shelter fah di sufferah
Get some better schools intelligence a fah di sufferah
Politicians get gi guns and give it to da sufferah
Sufferah go get di gun and shoot anotha sufferah
Who full up di prison yuh nuh see a pure sufferah
Who full up a dozen hospital a pure sufferah
Mama she a sufferah papa he a sufferah
Caan mek mi children grow up tun sufferaaaah!

Almost sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay someway
So sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay

Elevate di pirate, and di eagle dem a sufferah
Peace to be a Africa but dung yah we a sufferah
Get di silver and di gold antique we as di sufferah
Di rich is gettin richer while di people yah di sufferah
Tek whole heap a religion fah weh we a di sufferah
Who call got di boast yuh nuh see see all di sufferah
Caan stop di sufferah hard workin sufferah
Di system designed to keep di people dat's sufferah
Why di politicians get deprived inna di sufferah?
Strivin sufferah survivin sufferah
Yutes dem a di ghetto some happy just sufferah
Someone will tun inna robbin dem ago dung fah di sufferaaaah!

Almost sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay someway
So sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay

Born as a sufferah grew up as a sufferah
Struggle as a sufferah mek it as a sufferah
Fight as a sufferah survive as a sufferah
Yutes inna di ghetto well di most a dem a sufferah
Nuff a mob police to clear dem rights true dem a sufferah
Innocent da one yah deh fi tek care a di sufferah
Eat as a sufferah di pressure really sufferah
Mi a tell yuh mi a prime minister fah di sufferah
Who know we nuh parliament give somethin to da sufferah
Who nuh wait a government provide fah di sufferah
Food fah di sufferah shelter fah di sufferah
Get some better schools intelligence a fah di sufferah
Politicians get gi guns and give it to da sufferah
Sufferah go get di gun and shoot anotha sufferah

Almost sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay someway
So sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay

Someway, so sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay
Someway, so sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay
Someway, so sorry I'm sad to say, you can't stop me not today
I've been workin to get my pay my pay my pay my pay
