''CHORUS: ''

Meh islands touchin’ de blue sea;

All de people on bended knee,

Prayin’ for those who gone,

Dey cyah do notin’ but mourn!

''Verse 1: ''

Trinidad was a paradise

But now tings eh so nice,

All ah now hearing,

Is only ah choppin’ and ah shootin’,

Kidnappin’ and ah robbin’

Right now someday daughter cryin’

''Verse 2: ''

Crime, Crime

<p class="MsoNormal">Why yuh hadda be there all de time?

<p class="MsoNormal">Never feelin’ ill,

<p class="MsoNormal">Only want to kill!

<p class="MsoNormal">Jamaica got no fear

<p class="MsoNormal">For de man up there,

<p class="MsoNormal">De gangs only getting’ bigger

<p class="MsoNormal">Dem young boys searchin’ for de wrong fadda.

<p class="MsoNormal">''Verse 3: ''

<p class="MsoNormal">De youths hadda learn in school

<p class="MsoNormal">Playin’ with ah gun ent dat cool

<p class="MsoNormal">Den yuh gone when yuh flip de coin

<p class="MsoNormal">Crime is ah torture in dis place

<p class="MsoNormal">We must not do it in de human race

<p class="MsoNormal">Stop de crime

<p class="MsoNormal">Now is time!

<p class="MsoNormal"> '''The reason why I wrote this song was to show the youths of today that education is the key, and to not stray and go into crime. This song means a lot to me, because Trinidadians are becoming so violent and they need a wake up call. '''
