Kali Walé - Haven't I The Right

Haven't I the right to be angry
Haven't I the right to be sad
When I see my brothers in the street
Being brutalized so very bad
Always the victims of a heartless system
If the police nah go listen
We have to find the strength to resist them

How long are we to wait
There's no time left now for debate
You see this thorn stuck in we side
Must use another thorn fi pry it
Seen the dark clouds rolling in
Man them, weather tampering
See their lies are wearing thin
The truth no sin

Haven't I the right to be angry
Haven't I the right to express myself
When I see my daughters in the street
Neglecting all their spiritual wealth
Always the victims of this culture destruction
What about our children
They've learned to hate where they come from

How long are we to wait
There's no time left now for debate
You see this thorn stuck in we side
Must use another thorn fi pry it
Seen the dark clouds rolling in
Man them, weather tampering
Their lies are wearing thin
And the truth no sin

Haven't I the right to feel betrayed
When I see that my people've been led astray
Giving up we rights under the sun
Turning our backs on freedom
When will we listen
To any of the words the Prophet said
And what is the reason
Is total destruction the only way

How long are we to wait
There's no time left now for debate
You see this thorn stuck in we side
Must use another thorn fi pry it
Seen the dark clouds rolling in
Man them, weather tampering
See their lies are wearing thin
The truth no sin
