Slew Dem Like David

Selasiah enuh
Blessed is the man that endure temptation
For when he's try he shall
Receive the crown of like
Which the lord has promise to
Dem that love him

He shall cover me with his feathers hand
His truth shall be his thy shield buckle at
Goliath fight mi daily
Mi a go slew dem like David
Tell mi father why dem hate mi
Caw mi no do dem nothing Jah
Trust in the lord wid all yo heart
Lead not in your own understanding
Tell mi father why dem hate mi
Caw mi no do dem nothing Jah

Born in a the Garrison
An mi grow up as a sufferer
From mi come out a mi mother belly
Mi haffi fight fi everything wa mi have
Nobody never give mi nothing
Mi shed nuff blood sweat an tears fall
Who Jah Jah bless no man curse
Thank Jah mi past the worst
Ghetto youth never give up don't give it up
Money fi a meck, mama house fi build up
Babylon a go give wi a fight
But with the help of Jah Jah
There's no stopping yuh no

In a the Garrison 4 pickiny 1 mother
Somebody tell mi weh the father
Prison or the jail or in a the morgue
Dem no waan wi prosper dem waan wi maga
So mi tell the clans fi tell wanada
Tell shower man fi tell the smuggler
The system design fi conker
Trick dem a play paw we
Ghetto youth never give up don't give it up
Money fi a meck, mama house fi build up
Babylon a go give wi a fight
But with the help of Jah Jah
There's no stopping yuh no
