Nothin'a Change - Gentleman, Large Professor

What a gwaan professor

We must get over — we mass get over

Fi the ghetto youth

I know it

Nothing a change

Everything remain the Same

'Cuz the ghetto youths dem still a suffer

No food fi days

Instead a life get easy it only get tougher and tougher

Mama bawl out and she call out — call out pon jah

Say she pray every day fi the pain go away

All now she can’t get better

Rifle sound- mama tear shed

When she look pon the ground she see peer red

And when she turn around — her son lay dead

Brain shell out in a him body a just peer lead

Nuff things happen through circumstances

While the System designed to hurt your chances

The way of your nine just get you hunted

Hunted — you nuh wanted

Just the under priviliged a get disadvantage

You feel to yourself you’re under bondage

When those who you know nuh speak your language

Language — nuh speak your language

All we want is just freedom

When we a go see the day deh

Me and me people dem still a pray

Cause all we see a false promises

Now Mr. Babylon want take all mi hollow premises

Nothing a change

Everything remain the Same

'Cuz the ghetto youths dem still a suffer

No food fi days

Instead a life get easy it only get tougher and tougher

Mama bawl out and she call out — call out pon jah

Say she pray every day fi the pain go away

All now she can’t get better

Right now mama hungry — and na food can find

Ina me gun me load two carbon

Now me have to touch the street — food have to eat

Mama — you just a one of a kind

So many want to get away — from this way of life

When all dem See around is just guns and knife

A better way — far from pain and strive

Fighting so hard to survive

Nothing a change

Everything remain the Same

'Cuz the ghetto youths dem still a suffer

No food fi days

Instead a life get easy it only get tougher and tougher

Mama bawl out and she call out — call out pon jah

Say she pray every day fi the pain go away

All now she can’t get better

If you pick up your nine it goodly end your shine

Now you find out you living a life of pure crime

You don’t want to but have to pon the frontline

Frontline — again at the frontline

And the mountain over deh so so hard to climb

Looking for solutions we search to find

Be sharp in this time smart in this time

Find a way to unleash your gold mine

Freedom — that’s all in me

Freedom — that’s all in me

Now free up all a the ghetto youth dem

We want freedom — that’s all in me

Gentleman and professor
