TRANSFORMING
REF
Transforming dem souls
In weapons and arms
Transforming dem souls
Today children you got to live with “ tears ‘n’ crimes”

Some live with poverty everyday
Fighting fi youth who running away
Live with the hunger every night ‘n’ day
But with the police oppression everynight some will be dead
We building foundation it’s no what they say
But we build something and dem run away
Dem a run a run a run
Dem a run and make it burn’

REFRAIN

Some say they help the poor but they never try
Don’t wanna come to see children who always cry
Don’t wanna see de slums and they don’t know why
Da blood makes dem scared they can not deny
Slavery chains have been cut
Our children gonna fuss
Mental slavery pains
In our blood , heart and veins

REFRAIN

Mais encore aujourd’hui
Toujours les mêmes qui trinquent
C’est toujours le ghetto youth
Le rasta qu’on pointe du doigt

Jis pas’nou trop’ rudeboy nou dreadlocks pa pou yé
Jis’ pas ‘ nou gen pliss fos yé pa lé bay nou la tè
Jis’ pas’ nou gen pliss difé an nou lespri a pou sa yé pè
Jis pas nou ka djoubaté nou militan nou guerrier
Wa gwaan boy ?wa gwann ?
Wa gwaan boy? Wa gwaan?

REFRAIN

DEM A RUN A RUN A RUN DEM A RUN A RUN A RUN IN DA GHETTO
Slavery chains have been cut
Our children gonna fuss
Mental slavery pains…
