‘Purify your heart clean

I beg you give it up

Give up your heart to Jah Kingdom

Don’t you know that you are the children of the Negus.

Too many youths simmering in the ghetto

They don’t know which way to turn

As the government puts them on go-slow

Programmed by dumb programmes.

By the age of thirteen

They start selling the grammes.

Nobody to teach them how to be a man

How macho they can be is their only plan.

As I look across the Brixton skyline

Once there were schools

Now expensive flats are designed.
