I was listening to this song the other day on the way home from class and was reminded how much I love the power of the words and music. I couldn't find a video clip to include so that you could listen to the song. So, if someone out there knows how to embed an audio file please let me know! I highly recommend listening to it and letting it inspire you to become someone who prays for and practices justice and mercy in God's name.
"Dust Under Carpet" by Abdel Wright
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
The justice system no tek it so light
Nuff youth get mash up, nuff lose dem life
It mention fe a time then it put one side
Dat no right
Remember when them tek the street people them go dump
Now them sitting quite easy pon them rump
Them conscience want bury rotten it stink like skunk
Them judgment
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
Sometimes we have to wake up the ants nest
And don't give a damn who want vex
A them mek the law and a them break it
What a foolishness
Fe trouble ghetto youths that a Babylon style
Cold blooded murderers and some alibis
False statements cover up them lies, lies
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
You never know where the wind blows
You never know, you never know
One day and the dust might get exposed
Then you deeds will show
Why you waste time put your finger inna ink?
Politics promises gone as you blink
Yow ghetto youth yu fe know who unu link
Corruption ship must sink
Government and them nice fancy speech
Them don?t really practice what them preach
Them inside dirty though them outside clean
Them disguising
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
Like dust under carpet
Like dust under carpet
Like dust under carpet
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
The justice system no tek it so light
Nuff youth get mash up, nuff lose dem life
It mention fe a time then it put one side
Dat no right
Remember when them tek the street people them go dump
Now them sitting quite easy pon them rump
Them conscience want bury rotten it stink like skunk
Them judgment
Law makers a break it
Poor people the target
Some problems them sweep it
Like dust under carpet
Law makers a break it
