I'm from that place, enuh
The place weh the system condemn
Where you find the less fortunate
Some people say, "slum"
I say, "ghetto"
I'm from that place
That city
Our city no carry light weh pretty
Is a place weh Babylon no show pity
Nuh deal with mi people dem shitty
Mi tell 'bout Jerusalem
A place weh pick the fruits weh no ripe
The 'mount of germs, and the rat, and the flies
Dem no care 'bout the youth weh wipe
The glass weh stand up a the light
Feel the pain a mi voice
Ever hear say flour married to rice?
Dem use us a push aside
But my people take your brain out a park, put inna drive
'Cause dem no care if you live or you die
Our place full of bare borderlines
Everyday you get the crime rate a rise
And dem a blame the outlet when a dem design crime
Promises, no changes
No difference all when you skip pages
So let me say this
Only time dem waan use the people dem, dem become favorite
No changes
Minimum pay a we wages
Mosquito from the trenches
Give malaria to the babies
No love inna heart
No care fi the poor, dem treat us like dogs
What a life, what a role, what a task
Cold like ice weh dem store inna glass
Dem treat the people like a buffoon
Kids inna the slum no get no chance fi go a school
Dem no know a classroom
Unnu must a cartoon
Think say a everyday cow a jump broom
Promises, no changes
No difference all when you skip pages
So let me say this
Only time dem waan use the people dem, dem become favorite
No changes
Minimum pay a we wages
Mosquito from the trenches
Give malaria to the babies
That city
Our city no carry light weh pretty
Is a place weh Babylon no show pity
Nuh deal with mi people dem shitty
Mi tell 'bout Jerusalem
A place weh pick the fruits weh no ripe
