Jermaine Blake - Silent Lyrics

Dem silent, still having a good time
While so many in the streets die
Crime rate deh pan a sky high
Dem silent, still having a good time
While so many in the streets die
Crime rate deh pan a sky high

Front page; one killing
Another youth gone fi a shilling
Taxpayer money funding the wrong things
Now yuh nuh see say dat wrong king
Education a the key
So whe di door
Fi win a seat a some dem member the poor
Dem hol a king size, and we hol di floor
Dem nuh have nuh heart and we sure

Dem silent, still having a good time
While so many in the streets die
Crime rate deh pan a sky high
Dem silent, still having a good time
While so many in the streets die
Crime rate deh pan a sky high

Every day it's in the news
People feeling so confused
Cia infiltration
Dem oda ones still a hike up the ration
No rehabilitation, can't heal, can't help up the nation
While dem drive in dem big van
And you still a stretch out yuh hand

Dem silent, still having a good time
While so many in the streets die
Crime rate deh pan a sky high
Dem silent, still having a good time
While so many in the streets die
Crime rate deh pan a sky high

Ghetto youths a struggle
And a long time we a see it
Promises a make, and all now dem can't keep
Mama still a bawl
Pappa him nuh stop weep
Daughter deh a prison and the son a big thief
Everything in a di store dem have on taxes
No love for the poor from these foxes
Open land down a town don't got nuh factories
Can't hear a thing dem say

Pure silence, still having a good time
While so many in the street die
Crime rate deh pan a sky-high- yes now
Dem silent, still having a good time
While so many in the street die
Crime rate deh pan a sky high

Dem silent still having a good time
Still having a, still having a good time
While so many in the street die, yes now
Dem silent, silent now lord
