Lyrics

Da city dema run down
Hittin up da whole a England now
Talk bout (Mark) Duggan dema lie
Cah yuh si dem mek it rain thru da sunshine
Da city dema bun down
Hittin up da whole a England now
Talk bout Duggan dema lie
Cah yuh si dem mek it rain thru da sunshine

It's a tragic incident and I can understand the pain
For you to fight in what you believe you have to use your brain
The people at the top are using intellect and argument
Not throwing bricks at shops for a garment
That you're probably gonna sell on for less than what you started with
You can make a protest
Why is it choosing this
Violence in your methods to create a bigger movement its
Stealing!!
Looting!!
Stop using these excuses
There's no justification for what you'ze lot are doing
Cos these innocent people suffer
So you can get a rush of adrenaline
So many better things that can occupy your time
I see that you're settling when you need to use your mind

Da city dema run down
Hittin up da whole a England now
Talk bout Duggan dema lie
Cah yuh si dem mek it rain thru da sunshine
Da city dema bun down
Hittin up da whole a England now
Talk bout Duggan dema lie
Cah yuh si dem mek it rain thru da sunshine

Electronics stores I can clock on to the marketing
But I don't understand the thought process of an arsonist
Those are people's homes
Forgotten what has started this?
Mark Duggan's family never would have asked for it
To turn into a mindless epidemic riot targeting
Businesses to feed the selfish needs of those regarding them
The reason to justify this apparent fight for justice
Clarify your motives
And see that they're mistrusted
People losing jobs like we aint already struggling
What are you achieving?
Apart from self destruction
Bringing our state of humanity right down to nothing
Got me here losing my sanity over your judgement

Da city dema run down
Hittin up da whole a England now
Talk bout Duggan dema lie
Cah yuh si dem mek it rain thru da sunshine
Da city dema bun down
Hittin up da whole a England now
Talk bout Duggan dema lie
Cah yuh si dem mek it rain thru da sunshine

Mentality guaranteed to inflame not extinguish
You can't disagree with my plain and simple English
Cos you all need to come together and give it a rest
And think about your life while they're cleaning up your mess
X2

Da city dema run down
Hittin up da whole a England now
Talk bout (Mark) Duggan dema lie
Cah yuh si dem mek it rain thru da sunshine
Da city dema bun down
Hittin up da whole a England now
Talk bout Duggan dema lie
Cah yuh si dem mek it rain thru di sunshine

English translation chorus:

The city they have run down
Hitting up the whole of England now
Talk about (Mark) Duggan- they are lying
Because you see them make it rain through the sunshine
The city they have burnt down
Hitting up the whole of England now
Talk about (Mark) Duggan- they are lying
Because you see them make it rain through the sunshine
