Mi Caan Sleep

(album: Romain Virgo - 2010)

Oh, oh, oh, oh, well
Oh yes

This is a serious time, violence and crime
And a peer gun thing
Di youths dem have 'pon dem mind, oh, oh
Dem buss it when rain a fall
Yuh nuh see seh dem nuh care dem ya youth ya
Buss it all when sun a shine, oh, oh

Yuh no see, you no see a bare juvenile
A lock up di big guns outta street
(And dem a buss it up, buss it up) Oh
Weh dem get it from, nobody know
Dem fadda was a killah
Well a see tun and grow, oh, oh

And now mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
A peer gunshot a beat
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
A peer blood inna di street

Dem nuh youth ya a no play (no)
Every single day
Dem have it 'pon dem ways
And if yuh talk to other
And dem shoot out your face
(Dem buss it up, buss it up)
Tell me what a gwaan
Mi a beg unnu keep it calm
Cah you [?] nuh a real and kick up and a gwaan
It's like a gun stop

Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
A peer gunshot a beat
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
A peer blood inna di street

Bring back Jamaica
Inna di time when everything was fine
(Bring back the love)
'Cause all the tries some a try fi show love
It seems like the rest a dem blind
(Dem outta dem mind)
All rude bwoy to must a gun
Put dung di Glock and di nine
'Cause you no kill mista [?] as grown
And turn the whole place inna ghost town

And now mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
A peer gunshot a beat
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
A peer blood inna di street

Cah this a serious time, violence and crime
And a peer gun thing
Di youths dem have 'pon dem mind
(A dem a buss it up, buss it up) Oh
Dem buss it when rain a fall
Yuh nuh see seh dem nuh care dem ya youth ya
Buss it all when sun a shine
(An' dem a buss it up, buss it up) Oh, oh

And now mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
A peer gunshot a beat
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
A peer blood inna di street

Cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)
No matter how mi try fi dweet
Mi cyaan sleep (cyaan sleep)..
