Tarrus Riley Beware Lyrics

[INTRO:]
Beware for the Shottas dem strap
rastaman ah tell di youths dem fill low di block
Beware who di cops start heart attach and dem nuh care(no ooo)

Its ashame to see brothers killing themselves
Wasting energy, should be uplifting themselves
Whos di enemy putting shots on the shelf
What we need is brain, food and belly full for our health

So dont get caught up in a fety passion
Be careful of dem guns and ammunition
And let us make a change in meditation
Cause we could use the strength for cultivation(my lord!)

[Chorus:]
Beware for the Shottas dem strap
rastaman ah tell di youths dem nuh rat-ta-ta-tat
Beware now di cops start heart attach and dem nuh care and then we shot yuh inna yuh poop-poop-poop
Beware now the whole place hot rastaman ah tell di youths dem fill low di block
beware now di cops start heart attach and dem nuh care(no noooo)

So much blood crime man ah shot man ah night time
Read yuh head line lord it really blows my mind
School children targeted in the broad day light
Dem ah dead fi cell phones, all so inna drive by
Police ah dead to, one ah day
Dem ah shot di sheriff and ah come fi di deputy (Gezzz!) All di woman dem nuh partial
Wah mek deh kill di old lady and di old man

Beware for the Shottas dem strap
rastaman ah tell di youths dem fill out di plack nuh rat-ta-ta-tat
Beware now di cops start heart attach and dem nuh care and then we shot untro poop-poop
Beware now the whole place hot rasta man ah tell di youths dem fill low di block ra-ta-tat
beware now di cops start heart attach and dem nuh care(no noooo)and di shot out yuh poop-poop-poop

Blood flooding the streets
Rude bwais and police ah compete
Because dem turn to RAS-Tafari
Then all and all wouldda alright
Now here we go again
nother man drop flat again
Go ahead and tell yuh friend, di streets nuh safe again
While dem searching for terrorist
Youths dem die for foolishness

[CHORUS]

Its ashame to see brothers killing themselves
Wasting energy, should be uplifting themselves
Whos di enemy putting shots on the shelf
What we need is brain, food and belly fully for our health

So dont get caught up in a fety passion
Be careful of dem guns and ammunition
And let us make a change in meditation
Cause we could use the strength for cultivation
