Lyrics Beenie Man – RIP Friends
Text:
Hear we cry
We have lost a lot of friends in the system
Dem do a lot a tings fi turn you inna victim
You, pick up a gun caah a quick ting
Mi nuh pants so nuh boy couldn’t press me
Dem do a lotta tings fi try impress me
Nah go stray so dem couldn’t mederess me
R.I.P fi mi frens dem weh pass and gone
From yuh knw say yuh fren shoulda deh yah inna di night ya
From yuh miss dem unu put up unu lighter
Although dem gone weh di suit dem whiter
Rest in peace anyway
From yuh knw say yuh fren shoulda deh yah inna di night ya
From yuh miss dem unu put up unu lighter
Although dem gone weh di suit dem whiter
All a who gone rest in peace
(Rest in peace)
