Poverty Is Killing The Youth Video (MV)

Ala wala
This thing deh pan mi heart and, mi a go talk dem, mi a fi talk dem
Because of poverty, deh yuh move fi deh
Large large cities, bah when deh move deh

Deh nitty gritty is, deh never get penny
Bah deh youth want money, cos deh get family
Deh have to get dem something so deh can make ends meet
But when deh move deh, deh find dem self in a different corner

Making bad friends,smoking cigarette, and 'marijuana-na
Mi a say poverty, poverty, poverty killing deh youth
Mi a say poverty, poverty, poverty destroy de youth
Mi a say poverty, poverty, poverty killing deh youth
Mi a say poverty ,poverty
Destroy deh youth

If you move to deh cities, from Accra to kinase
You a go see deh youth, running and chasing lorry
Selling, hawking, fi make up, something

Running, chasing, but still get nothing
Some end up in jail, cause they never won't fail
They rather prefer stealing fe, themselves starving
Some become robbers, some live pon deh street, dem stranded

Nuff a dem become pickpockets, deh a kill dem deh dem life ends
Mi a say poverty, poverty, poverty killing deh youth
Mi a say poverty, poverty, poverty destroy deh youth
Mi a say poverty, poverty, poverty killing deh youth

Mi a say poverty, poverty, poverty destroy deh youth

So if you see deh youth, you fi know dem deh future of Africa
Of Ghana, and Jamaica, you fi treat dem, treat dem well beggars
Cause of poverty, deh youth move to deh large large cities

But when deh move deh, deh nitty gritty, is they never get penny
But deh youth want money, cause deh nge family
Deh have to get dem something, so deh can make ends meet
But when deh move deh, deh find dem self in a different corner

Making bad friends, smoking cigarette, and marijuana-na
