Lyrics
TELL ME WHY (CHANT)
WHY THE GUNS AND KNIVES ARE TAKING OUR YOUNG LIVES (TELL ME WHY)
WHY THIS SYSTEM A GIVE THE YOUTH A FIGHT( TELL ME WHY)
I REALLY CANT TAKE THIS ANYMORE
I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT I’M FIGHTING FOR
TELL ME WHY (CHANT)
KILLING SEEMS TO BE THE ORDER OF THE DAY (TELL ME WHY)
HOW MANY MORE LIVES WILL HAVE TO PAY
IT’S TIME FOR US TO TAKE A STAND
I PRAY THAT GOD WILL HEAL THE LAND
I AM TIRED OF THE LOOTING AND THE SHOOTING
I AM TIRED OF THE LIVES THAT ARE WASTING
I AM TIRED OF THE EMPTY PROMISES
FROM POLITICIANS SEATED IN HIGH PLACES
IT’S TIME TO CHANGE THE WAY THAT WE ARE THINKING
AND START BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A SILVER LINING
IT’S TIME TO CHANGE THIS OPPRESSIVE VICIOUS CYCLE
YOUNG MAN IS TIME YOU START TO SET EXAMPLE
BEG YOU PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPONS AND AMMUNITION
AND ARM YOURSELF WITH A GOOD EDUCATION
MAKE HASTE MI A BEG YOU DON’T DELAY
AND YOU CAN SHOW THE YOUTH THEM THAT THERE IS A BETTER WAY
THIS IS NOT ABOUT THE COLOUR OF YOUR SKIN
THIS IS NOT ABOUT ANOTHER RACIST THING
THIS IS NOT ABOUT WHERE YOU WERE BORN AN’ AND GROWN
IF TRUTH BE TOLD WE ARE REAPING WHAT WE’VE SOWN
LET RESPECT COME BACK INTO OUR COMMUNITY
RESPECT THE FEEBLE, STRONG AND WEAK AND THE ELDERLY
I PRAY THESE POSITIVE CHANGES WILL HOLD FAST
SO GUNS AND KNIVES WILL BE THINGS OF THE PAST
LET US STAMP OUT ALL THIS GET RICH QUICK THINKING
TEACH THE YOUTH THEM THEY CAN EARN A DECENT LIVING
BY WORKING HARD AND TAKE UP SOME STUDYING
SO WE CAN PUT AN END TO ALL THE SENSELESS KILLING
