Kabaka Pyramid
Dreader Than Dread
[Chorus]
I hear the voice of the most high inna my head
Mi tell the youths dem seh fi stop di blood shed
Everyweh mi go mi see di block a run red
So mi know time a get dreader than dread (x2)
[Verse 1]
Cyaa siddung cyaa rest
Dark deh pon di hunt
And yes dem hungry fi yuh flesh
Nah go school but if yuh put dem to di test
Yuh betta run if yuh know what's best yes!
Dem seh dem a this dem seh dem a dat
Bout dem a run the place
Nuh come with nuh lip nuh gi dem nuh chat
Dem have dem gun pon waist
Dem buss up di clip body a drop
Dem haffi run away
But on your judgment day yuh surely haffi pay
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Inna di city dem a fight
Babylon system make it hard fi survive
And when di youths dem see the light
Dem cyaa scape from the pressure
Haffi look a 9 to 5
Dem neva get a education from nuh school
Have inspiration but dem treat us like a fool
Nuh longer dem cyaa use us like a tool
Beca we get the knowledge from
King Selassie I weh a rule
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
After mi sit pan top a di track
I hear dem buss di ra pa pap
Sit pan top a di track
I hear dem buss di ra pa pap
And we nuh like dat
Oh no and we nuh like dat
After mi sit pan top a di track
Mi tell di youths dem fi low the Glock
Mi tell police killing need fi stop
Wi nuh wah nuh hear nuh gunshat
Cuz we nuh like dat Oh No
And we nuh like dat
