Hunger is frequent, can't find food fi eat Can't pay the rent, some end up on the street Them tax we daily, system indiscreet Responsibilities, ends can hardly meet, hardly meet
We all know that certain things take time But not forever Comfort yourself by singing these lines of mine
Although the mountain is high I know that one day I will get by And although the bridges are low I'll take my chances To touch the troubled waters
Poverty done deya, It's a global thing Crime and violence mek we head start spin, oh, what a thing You see the homeless youths them, trust me, what a thing Exposed to abuses, chances very slim, very slim
We all know that certain things take time But not forever Comfort yourself by singing these lines of mine
Although the mountain is high I know that one day I will get by And although the bridges are low I'll take my chances To touch the troubled waters
Some ghetto youths see no choice but fi tek up the gun Some leave school with diploma Yet work them can't get none, oh, what a thing You think prison and death row system is such a fun, think again Suicide to me my view is fire burn, fire burn
Although the mountain is high I know that one day I will get by And although the bridges are low I'll take my chances To touch the troubled waters
Although the mountain is high I know that one day we will get by And although the bridges are low I'll take my chances To touch the troubled waters
You'll can take a chances To touch the troubled waters I'll take my chances To touch the troubled waters
Hunger is frequent, them tax we daily Can't pay the rent, poverty done deya [Incomprehensible] Responsibilities
