Modern Generation Video (MV)

Lord woi
Yo oneness, Jah love the children
A child shall lead the way eno I know
So I n I got to be a part of the bridge that connects them from then til now

I love to watch the youths dem a grow
So much to learn, So much to know
But there's a problem when you can't control the seeds that you sowing

Now everybody get so big a weh di youths gone
Can't separate the elders from the newborn
I a call it modern generation
Me a call it, a modern world
The trees dem say dem overripe can't keep the fruits on
It's like foundation never set, a weh di roots gone
I a call it modern generation
Me bredda call it, a modern world

Hey, when last you see nuh gig a play
When last you see nuh marble
The village don't grow a child again so you affi watch weh you a do
When you a di good youth nowadays people won't see your value
But when you quenga pon di block a general dem call you
Well if di youths don't know dem culture
Social media govern the youngsters and dem cannot live a day without dem tablets
That mean the future get a puncher cause we leaders mind in the dumpsters
Now the cuts a open up without no bandage

Now everybody get so big a weh di youths gone
Can't separate the elders from the newborn
I a call it modern generation
Me a call it, a modern world
The trees dem say dem overripe can't keep the fruits on
It's like foundation never set, a weh di roots gone
I a call it modern generation modern
Me bredda call it, a modern world

If you're the one we set to lead
Never practice what you preach
Why you crucify the youths when dem a act like leggo beast
You send the cops Inna the street
And act like you no see it
Say the fire against the fire,
A Dovecot it benefit
The kids dem a do wrong
The parents dem relax
We know the child shall lead the way but who a go help to bridge the gap
If you never teach dem how to utilize the skills dem got
What's gonna happen when they find an easier way to fill the pot
Woi, dem waan learn new stuff
Internet a use up
You have some pastor weh me nuh too trust and some ductors pon di school bus
Dem tek weh dem innocence
The girls dem get abuse nuff
I nuh ramp with pedophile can't stick around dem affi move up now
It's like the elders turn the kids
And vice versa
I man affi talk it how it is
The morals slip away like running water under bridge
Unnuh tell me if unnuh care cause everybody just a live

Everybody get so big a weh di youths gone
Can't separate the elders from the newborn
I a call it modern generation
Me a call it, a modern world
The trees dem say dem overripe can't keep the fruits on
It's like foundation never set, a weh di roots gone
I a call it modern generation (modern)
Me bredda call it, a modern world

Hey
Remember children live what they learn
Hold on parents, please to be firm
Little kids are more than you know
Getting smarter meanwhile dem a grow

And I pray you'll keep dem in school
And never you take dem for fools
And the sign it shows everyday
That the child shall lead the way
Hold on hey hey laawd
Hold on yea a hey
You know the child shall lead the way woi
Child shall lead the way yea
