Intro
Mi caan believe it.Government waan fi move mi

But a long long time mi live yaso cant go no weh
Dem really tek poor people fi fool,dem really tek poor people fi fool

Oui misa babylon a weh u get da system from?
buldosa dung poor people land jah know seh mi nah vote again
Cah di MP dont give a damn
A weh u get da system from?

True mi dont rich like Mattalon .Mi a born Jamaican
Verse1
Mi nave no weh fi go,mi born and me grown so inna
di ghetto.Bigga heads beg u a bligh no mi caan buy

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust

Mi neva qualify fi no house in trust cah mi loose all

But mi know seh mi a born jamaican mi deh from
slavery as a African. Sumadey tell me weh Mattalon
come from fi own suh much land inna wi island

parents.Mi beg yuh lease mi da piece a land
Nave no problem fi pay rent
Runcome give mi your eviction notice cah poor dont
have no patience.Mi know seh mi a born Jamaican mi
deh from slavery as a African
Sumadey tell mi weh Mattalon come from fi own suh much
land inna wi island.Misa Chin
go back a Japan cah Jah Jah mek fi di black man
From Morrant Point to Negril Point from St Thomas to
Westmoreland
