Burning Spear - Own Security
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
We will understand them
And they will understand us
We will work together
So things will be better
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Ministers and mayors
What you going to do for the people
In this present two thousand
Yes, young people
If you don't know what you want to be in life
Join up
Hold on to a skill or a trade
And get some kind of recognition
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
If something should go wrong
I will take no side regardless
Who is right from who is wrong
Rules and regulation
Became a part of this plan
We want discipline and respect
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
African Americans, African West Indians
Remember what the red, black and green stand for
The red, black and green to remember our pain
If it's minor problem, never see our security
If it's minor problem, never see our security
Ministers and mayors
Ministers and mayors
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
We can do it
We can do it
In our neighbourhood
In our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
We will understand them
And they will understand us
We will work together
So things will be better
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
Give us our own security in our neighbourhood
