Текст песни: Racial Injustice (Spoken Introduction) + перевод

Oh when I wake up in the morning

There is no breakfast on my table

When I reach home in the evening

There is no dinner on my table

How many rivers do we have to cross, / Before we can talk to the boss?

So dem a loot and a shoot and a wailing

Racial war in the city, now it’s burning

So long poor people crying out to you. / You never give a listening ear

So long poor people reaching out to you. / You never seem to really mm

In your land of plenty, so many poor

Homeless and hungry

So many die on the frontline

So long we slaved on the homeline

So them a root with the truth and them saying

Racial war failing tonight

So much promises, so much lies. / Bring more tears to their eyes

So much being said, a little been done

So many crying when there’s so much fun

How long will you reap off their labor?

Keep them so poor in great hunger

How can you sit there and say you care?

When so much pain and sorrows everywhere

Champagne and caviar time

You don’t care if Jah come in the morning

So you treat Jah children like swine

And you don’t take heed to Jah warning

Racial injustice in the city, yeah

And I yah tell you, it’s not pretty now

Poor people in the struggle. / Pressure is rising on the double

Tell you it’s bad, bad, bad. / Tell you it’s mad. The people sad

So we’re trying. Ain’t nothing working

So we’re crying. The children are dying

It’s getting worse. From worse to worse
