Shots in the Dark - Smif-N-Wessun, Jah Dan

Say dem a program war

Livin' like beasts 'pon di streets

Some a dem weh dem steal for di least

Political conspiracy, bad bwoys and police

See dem know another one deceased

Have you ever faced sufferation?

Unemployment and discrimination?

Yuh can’t blame di yout' of dis nation

Show dem a better way than creating more killers

Everybody thuggin', everybody iller

Everybody talk like dem a di biggest killer

Every man go walk through the fire for the skrilla

High price to feed the family when you can’t look in the mirror

Figure it’s just the reality of this cold life

(Face the barrel of the chrome) Cause you the one they don’t like

(I see niggas in the streets

Pajamas and slippers like its sweet)

Y’all ain’t ready for beef

(Let alone a war, like its Zone 4

Should be living more, what you dying for?

Mindless murder, life taker, heart breaker

Bastard maker, forsaker, UFO, you culture raper)

Dem a program war

Livin' like beasts 'pon di streets

Some a dem weh dem steal for di least

Political conspiracy, bad bwoys and police

See dem know another one deceased

Have you ever faced sufferation?

Unemployment and discrimination?

Yuh can’t blame di yout' of dis nation

Show dem a better way than creating more killers

A baby cries (when a mother smokes)

A father lies (in a cell for selling dope)

Losing all hope but he try’na cope (Try'na cope)

25 to click, he at the end of his rope

And that’s the trilogy, him, you, and me

Cause we all killers, P-O-E

Dem a murderer!

Kill in cold blood, even his own blood

He grew up 'mongst them thugs in the jungle

No trust, no love

(Adapted to the hustle, learned to bust those guns)

Still we struggle, knowing trouble

Save our sons from the slums

While the mothers pray that slugs never touch innocent ones

Say dem a program war

Livin' like beasts 'pon di streets

Some a dem weh dem steal for di least

Political conspiracy, bad bwoys and police

See dem know another one deceased

Have you ever faced sufferation?

Unemployment and discrimination?

Yuh can’t blame di yout' of dis nation

Show dem a better way than creating more killers
