Sizzla - Bad Company lyrics

rate me

[Intro:]

Listen up words up,

be not so ignorant

blacker reverence

time fi di youth dem hail Haile Selassie

[Chorus:]

Too much sufferation mi cyaan bear no more

Brutalization them don't love the poor so me

Play the music every night and day because

Bad company will lead you astray [x2]

[Verse 1:]

Yow mi cook mi food

Poor people get some out of it

dem shot the innocent

still nothing come out of it hmm…

Speak the truth ah that me promote ah it

yuh cut the people flesh

yes blood run out of it, now

your duty is wuk fi everyone

police and dey gun yes they get out of hand

judge, you should take it out their hand

yuh hurt black people and yuh don't care a damn

[Chorus x2]

[Verse 2:]

black people royal

and dem regal all the guns in the world are illegal

even a knife or a pen it is lethal

they use it to kill for what they can achieve and

selectah' play the music boost up di place

why should police come shoot up di place?

Prove dem ah prove dem nah hold no faith

corruption cyaan guh through Mount Zion gate

[Chorus x2]

[Verse 3:]

And still slavery ah gwaan

[Chorus x2]

[Verse 4:]

Plant di food poor people get some out of it

I got to speak the truth what me promote ah it

your duty is wuk fi everyone
