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

Bridge 

So why you kill innocent people everyday 

why you cant get up and work for you pay 

by the sweat of you brow man must eat 

but you rather to kill, kill and steal 

remember you live by the gun you die by the gun 

you hurt somebody you must feel some 

please me a beg you put love in you heart 

do dont let no more blood run 

please dont let no more blood 

run me a beg you dont let no more blood run 

have mercy father x2
