Sometimes I cry at night, 'cause I feel like no one cares
For the child in the streets getting beat by police
In this twisted atmosphere.

I'm bringing truth to the forefront
Tell me who got access to more guns
More ammo, more drugs, pull more stunts
Abusing putting pain on people for more months
I'm bringing light to the darkness
Chaotic problems that officers started
Like assassinations of nuff artists
And the terrorization of markets
Using force as their means
Of solving what they want with their AK machines
Bragging on how many head tops dem shot clean
I'm showing you the side of the streets you don't see
Fight for your rights and what do you get
A baton, a gun butt, and couple death threats
I thought it was the people that they serve and protect
If not it must be someone else

Sometimes I cry at night, 'cause I feel like no one cares
For the child in the streets getting beat by police
In this twisted atmosphere.

Bam! bullets coming out the barrel
Dem slap you off and kick you up and tell you not to quarrel
Incarcerated men they go through the worse
I hope that every black nation recognize their hurt and their pain
It's happening again and again, so open up your eyes to the game
It's been a struggle for youths behind bars
Being scarred by the infamous coup, oh Jah
I know one day the table will turn and cops who are evil will burn
It's the law of life that no one doing wrong
Shall continue the blight, no no no
The time has arrived for the child, to look deep within, reconcile
With the glory of Jah that shall rise,
To defend you against wicked vibes
Drama drama, drama drama, drama drama, drama drama

Sometimes I cry at night, 'cause I feel like no one cares
For the child in the streets getting beat by police
In this twisted atmosphere.

Drama drama, ow yeah, drama drama, ow,
Drama drama, ow yeah, ee yeah.
All over the world it's just evil going on,
But yet still I know that the goodness is within man, so reveal it.
Stop the abusing of young children just for energy, just for energy.

Sometimes I cry at night, 'cause I feel like no one cares
For the child in the streets getting beat by police
In this twisted atmosphere.
