Lyrics The People's Cry - Konshens , Dorreo

Yow
Wah gwan?
See it happen everyday enuh
People dem stress out

Hungry, depressed
Cyah tek no more
Conscience
Dario Danger

Why do we alone have to feel the pain?
Why the ghetto people nuh feel the strain?
Who is there to answer when we complain?
The system only give us migraine
Just poor people nuh feel the stress
Why my mother haffi feel depressed?
The likkle man a juggle him herbs and a him dem arrest
The people cry
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
The people cry
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)

People a cry, a say dem cyah tek the pressure
Every minister we vote in promise fi make it better
Yet still nuh see no changes a come
It's like our name engrave inna slum
Fi real, life shouldn't be like this
Why we have to cope with this crisis?
Food, shelter and high prices
My people dem really a face it
That's why we cry

Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
The people cry
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)

Why do we alone have to feel the pain?
Why the ghetto people nuh feel the strain?
Who is there to answer when we complain?
The system only give us migraine
Just poor people nuh feel the stress
Why my mother haffi feel depressed?
The likkle man a juggle him herbs and a him dem arrest
The people cry
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
The people cry
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)

People a cry, a say dem cyah tek the pressure
Every minister we vote in promise fi make it better
Yet still nuh see no changes a come
It's like our name engrave inna slum
Fi real, life shouldn't be like this
Why we have to cope with this crisis?
Food, shelter and high prices
My people dem really a face it
That's why we cry

Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
Dem cry (Mmmm)
The people cry
Dem cry (Mmmm)
