Verse
This is a letter from my heart to the shatta them,
the little youths them who quick to pull the trigger them
life worth more than a chain and some dollars
to cramp the belly of another hurting mother.
Wife cry, Uncle cry, friend cry, baby cry
lifeless body on the ground why
all for a little iphone so you get the phone
why you couldnt leave the girl with her life alone
Chorus
why it had to end this way
another good person why you took them away
never hurt you never did you wrong
with tears at the funeral
me a ask you why why it had to end this way
another good person why you took them away
never hurt you never did you wrong
with tears at the funeral me a ask you why
me a ask you me a ask you why me a ask you
why with tears at the funeral me a ask you why
me a ask you me a ask you why me a ask you

please dont let no more blood
run me a beg you dont let no more blood run
