Endangered species


A slack we slack, it's keeping us back
A slack we slack, no time fe dat, oh wee
Destruction of the black civilization
Let me tell you this

Cause every time I raise my weary hand
I see desolation and I feel despair
Watching my nation going down the drain
Going around as if they just don't care

Still in the streets looking for justice
Losing our life a very heavy price to pay
Lift up your voice and shout for equal rights
They're killing us out, oh yes from day to day

Don't touch the coke nor the crack
That de kind a drug just a keep you back
Watch de gang and de gun
That dey kind a life just a keep we down
Go to school and learn the rule
Let me tell you something, education rule
Got to earn self respect
A good things a come through blood and sweat

Cannot all born fi live a prison
To live by the gun is only suicide
So when wise men speak you better listen
Never too late to take some sound advice
The nation's strength is in the family now
A house that's divided, no can never stand
Brothers take up responsibility
Lead all your children with your precious hand

Destruction of the black civilization
Endangered species don't you know
Destruction of the black civilization
Sho way wa ba da yeah

Don't touch the coke not the crack
That de kind a drug just a keep you back
Watch de gang and de gun
That kind a life just a keep you down
Go to school and learn the rule
Let me tell you something education rule
Got to earn self respect
A good things a come through blood and sweat

Destruction of the black civilization

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Steel Pulse is one of the most successful British reggae bands, both creatively and commercially. Hailing from Handsworth, Birmingham, they began performing in the 1970s, blending authentic reggae roots with jazz and Latin influences. This unique approach earned them an international following, leading to the release of their debut album, "Handsworth Revolution", in 1978. Widely considered a landmark in British reggae, the album marked the beginning of a successful career. Before the end of the 1980s, Steel Pulse won a Grammy Award, cementing their status as prominent crossover reggae artists. In subsequent years, the band returned to roots sounds, incorporating elements of dancehall and hip-hop. Notable tracks include "Ku Klux Klan", "Sound System", "Steppin' Out" and "Jah Jah City".
