One man pull his iron,
So the other man, retaliate
While the youths dem in the streets ah playing
Someone’s life gets destructed
“Innocent victim” is what the newsman will say
But I beg to differentiate, you see
The gunman was once a youth
And the community let his life go to waste
Simmer down youth man, life can be so great
Simmer down youth man,
Hold on
One man pull he Glock, so the next man
So the next man pull he Glock,
And the next man fire shot, gunshot
Lord, Mac-10, Gatt, Nah!
Now these clown ah got
Grena— a— ades!
Look what smoke dem ah toke
Gunsmoke, Gunsmoke
Walking ‘round strap with their holster bout
Gunsmoke, Gunsmoke
Look what smoke dem aH toke
Gunsmoke, Gunsmoke
Walking ‘round strap with their holster bout
Gunsmoke, Gunsmoke
Gangsta is what dem want to be
Might as well, wear white sheets
Like deH Klan, all U do is, shooting people down
Like deH Klan, like deH Klan
Lord, all U doing is, shooting our heroes down
Like deH Klan, like deH Klan
Catch dem alone and dem man aH “cow” (coward)
Satan’s Cap-pi-tans!
Satan’s Cap-pi-tans!
Man adopt, bussing shot in, Babylon ways
Bloodshed on our little islands
Too many Mommies crying over graves
But the gangsta, wouldn’t last a day in Vietnam
Where were they when, Grenada got invade
Dem don’t try to improve the schools for the youths dem
Don’t fight the bigotry of the ku Klux Klan
Don’t fight deH economic genocide
Lord, that is rampant in our lands
