Culture - I Tried

O, I pray Jah people to know, good from evil
And turn from their wicked ways and do good

I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried
To make them understand
I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried
But they just can't understand
I tried and I tried and I tried
To make them understand
I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried
But they just can't understand

The more penalization is up on their back
The more foolish they becomes
The more victimization is up on their backs
They satisfy, Lord, for less

But I try, I try
To make them understand
I try.. but they just can't understand

(..)

The more penalization is up on their back
The more foolish they becomes
The more victimization is up on their back
They satisfy, Lord, for less

I tried.. to make them understand
I try, oh Lord know I tried
But they just can't understand

Oh Jah.. poor people

This one turn them fool, the other one turn them fool
What are they looking for?
Fix up yourself and prepare to meet Jah
And that will satisfy for more

Keep on trying to understand what is right
