Two pounds a weed inna van back
It inna your hand bag, your knapsack,
it inna your back pack
The smell a give yah girlfriend contact
Some boy nuh know dis,
them only come around like tourist
On the beach with a few club sodas
Bedtime stories, and pose like them name Chuck Norris
And don't know the real hardcore
Cause Sandals a no 'back-to',
da thugs Dem wi do whe' them got to
And won't think twice to shot you
Don't make them spot you,
unless you carry guns a lot too
A bare tough thing come at you
unless you carry guns a lot too
When Trenchtown man stop laugh and block-off traffic
Then them wheel and pop off and them start clap it
With the pin file dung and it a beat rapid
Police come inna jeep and them cant stop it
Some say them a playboy, a playboy rabbit
Funnyman a get dropped like a bad habit
So nobody pose tough if you don't have it
Rastafari stands alone!

Political violence, can't done!
Pure ghost and phantom, the youth
Dem get blind by stardom
Now the Kings Of Kings a call
Old man to Pickney, so wave unno hand if you with me
To see the sufferation sicken me
Them suit no fit me, to win election them trick we
Den them don't do nuttin at all
DCome Bbon leAt's fGmace iGmt, a GmghettBbo educAationGm's baGmsicGm  
A most a the youths them waste it
And when them waste it,
that's when them take da guns and replace it
Then them don't stand a chance at all
And that's why a nuff little youth have up some fat matic
With the extra magazine inna them back pocket
And a bleach a night time inna some black jacket
All who not lock glocks, them a lock rocket
Then will full you up a current like a short circuit
Dem a run a roadblock which part the cops block it
And from now till a morning not stop clock it
If them run outta rounds a bruck back ratchet

Welcome to Jamrock, camp whe' da' thugs them camp at

Two pounds a weed inna van back

It inna your hand bag, your knapsack,

it inna your back pack

The smell a give yah girlfriend contact

Some boy nuh know dis,

them only come around like tourist

On the beach with a few club sodas

Bedtime stories, and pose like them name Chuck Norris

And don't know the real hardcore

Cause Sandals a no 'back-to',

da thugs Dem wi do whe' them got to

And won't think twice to shot you

Don't make them spot you,

unless you carry guns a lot too

A bare tough thing come at you

unless you carry guns a lot too

When Trenchtown man stop laugh and block-off traffic

Then them wheel and pop off and them start clap it

With the pin file dung and it a beat rapid

Police come inna jeep and them cant stop it

Some say them a playboy, a playboy rabbit

Funnyman a get dropped like a bad habit

So nobody pose tough if you don't have it

Rastafari stands alone!

Welcome to Jamdown, poor people a dead at random

Political violence, can't done!

Pure ghost and phantom, the youth

Dem get blind by stardom

Now the Kings Of Kings a call

Old man to Pickney, so wave unno hand if you with me

To see the sufferation sicken me

Them suit no fit me, to win election them trick we

Den them don't do nuttin at all

Come on let's face it, a ghetto education's basic

A most a the youths them waste it

And when them waste it,

that's when them take da guns and replace it

Then them don't stand a chance at all

And that's why a nuff little youth have up some fat matic

With the extra magazine inna them back pocket

And a bleach a night time inna some black jacket

All who not lock glocks, them a lock rocket

Then will full you up a current like a short circuit

Dem a run a roadblock which part the cops block it

And from now till a morning not stop clock it

If them run outta rounds a bruck back ratchet

[Chorus]
