Etana - How Long lyrics

How long will the people suffer, how long? How long will the people struggle, how long? How long will the people have to fight, how long? While the leaders carry on Promises don't feed hungry belly Set your traps, you k** ghetto pickney Then you lie, then you steal, from the poor you mistreat But soon will come, your day How long will the children have to cry, how long? Will they be forgiven, what did they do wrong? How long will they have to fight, destroying their lives? While the leaders carry on Promises don't feed hungry belly Set your traps, you k** ghetto pickney Then you lie, then you steal, from the poor you mistreat But soon will come, your day Oooo…eh eh eh ehhh Your children children children How long?
