[Chorus] [2x]
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
[Verse 1]
So the Glock a fyah Judgement inna you ears
And you cannot take it no more
You're visioning a spaceship
That a take you out a hardcore
You full a broken dreams, weh you can't just restore
You think you heart heal, then it broke out inna sore
Would you be a Jedi star, inna this yah star war
Vader nah go make you reach far
Or would you just lose your mind like inna movie shine
Walk away and turn the blind eye
[Chorus]
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day (Kingston 12)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day (Kingston 11)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day (Kingston 19)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
[Verse 2]
Ask yourself how dem a do it
I tell you how dem do it
Kingston 12 a so dem do it
Who a fyah the 'matik
Who keep away from it
Who going drop 'cause a militancy
So would you be a gun bwoy
Or play with Lego toys
Be a spectator or the real McCoy
Or would you try tek the sky on a paper plane flight
Knowing that your visa was denied
[Chorus]
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day (Kingston 12)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day (Kingston 11)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day (Kingston 19)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
[Verse 3]
So the speedometer gone to the limit
And you cannot stop it no more
Babylon a three digits
But them nah go come to you door
Shotta livity never into your pores
So you need a way out this cold
So would you be a Jedi star, inna this yah star war
Vader nah go make you reach far
Or would you just lose your mind like inna movie shine?
Walk away and turn the blind eye?
[Chorus]
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people (Kingston 12)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people (Kingston 11)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people (Kingston 19)
I cry for my people every day
Cry for my people every day
