Lyrics Jahmiel – Different Eyes
Text:
Mi we do di intro last, you see me
Poverty, still nuff
Life road, still rough
When the bills, dem build up
Yeah, ’cause it’s a jungle out there
Nothing like chill out
Nuff people get kill but
I wish there was a way
That was better than this
Hungry man ah angry man
And him no get a sandwich
So weh you feel a go happen
When him can write and read but forgotten
Am I, seeing from some different eyes
I could never have a piece of mind
How does the people in the street survive
When we can hardly get a piece a pie
Wah ’bout the youth dem living prison life
Follow wrong and never listen right
Before you use your mouth and criticize
Tek a look over ‘pon fi we side
Is like you prepare fi things get worse, you know
So you bring more police ‘pon your turf, you know
You can run, but where to go
Jah nah sleep, seh Jah see it, yeah
How long you think you plan a go work
When as the righteous we honour no dirt
You, feel like you on top of the world
But the time a come fi ghetto youth did properly earn
Seeing from some different eyes
I could never have a piece of mind
How does the people in the street survive
When we can hardly get a piece a pie
Wah ’bout the youth dem living prison life
Follow wrong and never listen right
Before you use your mouth and criticize
Tek a look over ‘pon fi we side
Can do di intro now
So weh mi did a try fi say is that
The youth dem a get wiser
Fi identify dem lies yah
You see weh me a seh
Dem wish me never have dem eyes yah, ah ha
Jah mek me see deep within
Spread the message ‘pon a sweet rididm
Before you use your mouth and criticize
Tek a look over ‘pon fi we side
Oh, oh — oh, oh, oh, oh — yeah
Tek a look over ‘pon fi we side
Am I seeing from some different eyes
I could never have a piece of mind
How does the people in the street survive
When we can hardly get a piece a pie
Wah ’bout the youth dem living prison life
Follow wrong and never listen right
Before you use your mouth and criticize
Tek a look over ‘pon fi we side
