How Long - Etana

How long will the people suffer how long

How long will the people struggle how long

How long will the people have to fight how long

While the leaders carry on

Promises don't feed hungry belly

Set your traps you kill ghetto pickney

Then you lie then you steal from the poor you mistreat

But soon will come your day

How long will the children have to cry how long

Will they be forgiven what did they do wrong

How long will they have to fight destroying their lives

While the leaders carry on

Promises don't feed hungry belly

Set your traps you kill ghetto pickney

Then you lie then you steal from the poor you mistreat

But soon will come your day
