Teach The Youth
Went away to a far far land, spend some time in new york
Most of my time inna England
No welcome back to my bornland. Yeah
Come from england to make some vibes, just to keep ma - fans alive
But the vibes they're teaching, me that dont right in my book, no
Yes the vibes they're teaching me that dont right in my book. Like
No put i dey nah put dem no weh hey,No put i dey lawd a wey dem a seh
Sex an guns jus keep dem to de ground horse tonic a mek di girl dem panick
Teach di youths dem how to live, Teach di youths dem how to survive
Hold your corner and save your life and thats no jive
Seh di youthes dem mek a living by selling some stars, gots to make a living wiping down cars, can't you see the times your living in, the people are suffering
No teach me nothing just teach me something
No teach me nothing just teach me something
Hold your corner save your life and thats no jive
My heart, my poor little heart, my heart cries to see the youth
No put i dey nah put dem no weh hey,No put i dey lawd a wey dem a seh
Sex an guns jus keep dem to de ground horse tonic a mek di girl dem panick
Teach di youths dem how to live, Teach di youths dem how to survive
Hold your corner and save your life and thats no jive
