lyrics

I’m looking for justice/The people dem a ball dem ah ball dem a ball/ dem nuh get none/The people dem a ball them a ball dem a ball/dem nuh get none.Dem sail dem ships upon the land/And took the kids of Africans/ and gave them whips And chain dem hands/ them schemes and tricks And master plans/use bible scripts/fi slave a man/then burn mi village kill mi fam/and cage mi like an animal/We pray for justice father God/400 years of blood and sweat and yes we still a slave/Take the shackles off we feet and put it on we brains/Dem tek we history press delete and wipe we heritage/A truth and rights until we step off of this pilgrimage/I’m looking for justice/The people dem a ball dem ah ball dem a ball/ dem nuh get none/The people dem a ball them a ball dem a ball/dem nuh get none.First it was slave ships now it’s the matrix/Where we mind locked up in dem cages/And caught up in dem technological spaces/Time wasting taking selfies of our faces/While we sell we life like craigslist/It might hurt when I say this/but the truthWe haffi face it /so upload this to your playlist/Cah the radios nah guh play this/And the pope him ah guh ban this/Uncle Sam him nah guh like this/Rasta sink ku klux klan like Atlantis/And all political bandits/With false Promise lies and antics/listen Keenly to my synopsis/Corruption flood the streets/Like when Japan and tsunamis/And these presidents behaving like Dem is Hitler’s and the Nazis/These times are getting drastic/From Kingston straight to Addis /From London to Los Angeles I’m looking for Justice/The people dem ah ball them ah ball dem ah ball dem nuh get none/The people dem ah ball them ah ball dem ah ball dem nuh get none/ Run to the police man and him nuh get none/with the lawyer man and him nuh get none/ with the politician and him nah get none/ Hmm huh hmm huh hmm huh/Sailing away sailing off shore/Been brutalized and caged behind doors/Stole my dignity we have that no more/John F. Kennedy end up speechless/When he told all of your secrets /And the justice weh we want /dem nuh get none/Marcus Garvey our shepherd/And ya can’t expunge him record And the justice weh we want/dem nuh get none/Paul Bogle our hero and you hang him down to zero/and the Justice weh we want/dem nuh get none/Can’t believe Malcolm X get couple shots inna him chest/And the justice weh we want/ dem nuh get none

about

Keznamdi Kingston, Jamaica

Sunny acoustic guitar and samples of sirens and smoking underscore his bouncy delivery as he welcomes listeners to his old stomping grounds. Elsewhere, “City Lock” [feat. Tory Lanez] tempers his rapid cadence with a robust beat. It climaxes on a hypnotic and harmonic cameo from multi-platinum recording artist Tory, adding another dimension to this buoyant banger.
