People Lyrics

The people are feeling down, down, down

So who's gonna help them to climb up

They're feeling down, down

Just look around

The people are feeling down

There's a whole population feeling frustration

Wishing for some paper, medication, sanitation

Insane

Stress killing dem brain

It's a whole generation inna segregation

Looking for some love and patience; more open relation

Indeed

So many in need

The people are feeling down, down

Way down

Di fren weh dem keep kick di ladda to keep dem down, down

Neva turn around

Mhm

The people are feeling down

Open up your eyes and check a history book

You nuh affi skip too far fi get di hook

A shame

Some friends to blame

Wars, czars, lies, tricks an' hypocrites

Dem will sell yuh out fi get a pair a kicks

Graves

Aren't you feeling the pain?

The people still feeling down, down

No sit-down

Nobody to help dem to climb up

They're feeling down, down

There's no doubt

Mhm

That anywhere you go, you can see the truth around

Believe this sound

But people learn to live

So much hope and dreams around

Refuse to drown

The people can't always be down, down

Never stay down

Even if nobody helps them to climb up now

No

Dem turn it around

The people will never, the people will never be down

That anywhere you go, you can see the truth around

Believe this sound

The people, the people, the people will never be down

But people learn to live

So much hope and dreams around

Refuse to drown

My people, your people, the people will never be down

The people won't always be down
