Niyorah Concrete Jail Cell
Do you know how many youths in jail, how many black men
This is what an inmate told me....
Let it be the Most High's will to have me where I am
Let them see that they can't kill the inner part of man
Even though the cell is locked and they've thrown away the key
I'm the finest of the father's crop, I deserve to be happy. I'm just saying....
Down, somebody's down in the concrete jail cell
And nobody gives a damn cause most of them are black
Down, somebody's down in the concrete jail cell
NiyoRah gives a damn I'm not forgetting anyone
Love will be deep within always, how can I have faith no more
Judging me on a one-ten scale way over twenty this man soars
Peace and love is the same to him who created all of us
I will show that I am a king, liberation of myself is a must.
I'm just saying...
Down, somebody's down in the concrete jail cell
And nobody gives a damn cause most of them are black
Down, somebody's down in the concrete jail cell
NiyoRah gives a damn I'm not forgetting anyone
Dirty toilet seats, unsanitary hasn't been flushed for weeks
Terrible environment can't even sleep
Police brutality still it a lurk, aye oh Jah
This ain't nothing sweet, A warden have fi tell you what time you must eat
The food look rotten ah can food and meat
And all you thinking 'bout ah how fi splurt, what is going on
And you feel as though the only way to get out is to sell your soul
Nuff become informer and ah play spy role
The system has so many trapped like so
Look how many get life for not doing nothing but putting up a fight
Against a silly game that Babylon call life
That's why the dynamite it have to blow, I’m just saying...
Down, somebody's down in the concrete jungle
And nobody gives a damn 90 percent is black
Down, somebody's down in the concrete jungle
Star Lion gives a damn we aint forgetting anyone
I Grade gives a damn we ain’t forgetting anyone, Jah
African people gives a damn we're not forgetting anyone no
Virgin Islands gives a damn woe ooh Jah, Jah rule and reign
