POEMS FROM DEADLY ENDING SEASON
Part I
We all can see
their wrong doings
dutty dutty jobs
and bad housing
ra-cism
and the brain-washing
some gone mental
some gone spiritual
all jus a suffer by
the co-
lo-
nial
all jus a suffer by
the old criminal
they oppress us
everywhere we try to live
swearing to God that it's not mischief
the News Media
jus label us
Daily
Nightly
it insult us
and the dutty court houses
are so unjust
with black youth
black youth
frame for sus
with black youth
black youth
gone
serve time
gone
serve time
it's Brutality!
Police Crime!
we wan amnesty
urgently!
humane cops
assualting must stop!
we ago
fight fe we rights
fight fe we rights
PART II
For right through
his'
twist story
de slave masters have all glory
now we ago
fight fe we rights
fight fe we rights
for once upon a time
we bowed to the whip
once upon a time
on de evil slave ship
once upon a time
we were chained as slaves
once upon a time
it became our graves
this once upon a time
they brought again
once upon a time
with a mental chain
with a whole population
in poverty
with a whole population
begging mercy
I can't contain
can't maintain
can't tolerate this mass murder
dem time is short
time is short
we ago fight fe we rights
fight fe we rights
upon time we rage
upon time we war
arms ina arms?
we all ago fight
for time is short
time is short.
