Man! The situation in the ghetto's getting from bad to worse
Seems like my people are under some kind of curse
Time to rearrange, gotta be a change
There's gotta be a change!
(In the gettho got a be a change)
Gotta be a change!
(In the gettho got a be a change)
We got to rearrange!
(In the gettho got to rearrange)
There's got to be a change!
(In the gettho)
Well down inna the ghetto man something gone wrong
A lot of youth man start walk with gun
Shoot you fe money woulda k** you fe fun
Seem like nuff of them no hear 'bout Jah plan
Down inna the ghetto where me born and grow
This is something I want me want you to know
So listen to my good and me say listen keenly
Ghetto people do you hear me?
We nar get no help from the heads of state
The churches just a come with them collection plate
No time to wait we better get things straight
Yes before it gets to late
Ghetto people tell me why can't you see
The whole of we are just one family
Time fe we get down upon we hands and knees
And pray to The Almighty
Yes time a progress but things a get worse
Seems like ghetto people are under a curse
I wonder who next a go ride in the hearse
For peace and love I hunger and thirst
Unemployment gone on the increase
Drug related crime gone on the increase
Gang warfare gone on the increase
So is the brutality we get from police
Well everyday an innocent youth get decease
Too late for the doctor so call in the priest
Innocent bloodshed one day must cease
Me a barl out for peace! Do you hear me?
There's gotta be a change!
