Just Aint The Same Wanted by Damian Marley Lyrics
[INTRO]
Ow wee
Zilah
[VERSE 1]
Aye, check it
Things just ain't the same for gangsters
Most of di don dem deh inna handcuffs
And most of di youth dem a all turn dancers
Policemen weh shoot you, and leave you unconscious
Garrison been losing sponsors
Cah most politicians flake out like dandruff
Now court indictment a spread like cancers
And even the baby a tun inna monster
Road hot, Kingfish do want answers
Rollin up in unmarked kingfish and lancers
A patrol increase due to circumstances
[HOOK]
Things just ain't the same for gangsters
Don't trust even your close companions
Mi heard of Armageddon deep like canyons
[Chorus]
So all the criminals at large
Or criminal weh large
Ah rob di country blind and di corruption camouflage
And if the streets could ever talk
What's really goin' on
Whole heaps of people would be wanted
[Verse 2]
Check it
Things just ain't the same for hustlers
Informers and busters living amongst us
Now every man face deh pon posters
Cyan trust people who are the closest
Hey squaddy you've been losing focus
To protect and serve cah you more provoke us
You lock off the dance when you should support us
Reggae entrepreneur dancehall promoters
Things happen for the strangest reasons
Most of the srtist cyan get Visas
And now time tuffa dan Tamarind season
Dem nah reap nuh corna and di fowl waan feeding
[Hook]
Things just ain't the same for gangstas
Don't trust even your close companions
Mi heard of Armageddon deep like canyons
[Chorus]
So all the criminals at large
Or criminal weh large
Ah rob di country blind and di corruption camouflage
And if the streets could eva talk
What's really going on
Whole heap a people would be wanted
So all the criminals at large
Or criminal weh large
Ah rob di country blind and di corruption camouflage
And if the streets could eva talk
What's really going on
Whole heap a people would be wanted
[Verse 3]
Check it hey
The whole country a strap you blame us
Now that the violence get outrageous
For minimum wages some young teenagers
Cyar 12 guagese and waan be famous
Don't do a politician favours
They come in all size, colour, shapes, and flavours
And dem introduce to violent behaviours
And push come to shove not even dem can save us
Watch di outcome how all these capers
Dem sell more pages in more newspapers
You read dem and burn dem dem turn to vipers
Meanwhile di youths dem locked in cages
[Hook]
Things just ain't the same for gangsters
Don't trust even your close companions
Mi heard of Armageddon deep like canyons
[Chorus:]
So all the criminals at large
Or criminal weh large
Ah rob di country blind and di corruption camouflage
And if the streets could eva talk
What's really going on
Whole heap a people would be wanted
So all the criminals at large
Or criminal weh large
Ah rob di country blind and di corruption camouflage
And if the streets could eva talk
What's really going on
Whole heap a people would be wanted
Ow wee
