Cold Murder (Caribbean Poem 1)
Lord have mercy
On poor Persey
What him go'in do now
To see his wife and children
body with bullet hole and stabs

This is all his fault you know
He should have just listened
when the police tell him to move with his family
But him so selfish
Want everything to himself
Now him got nothing

If him did just stay away from the gang
And stop using the slang
his head wouldn't have to bang

He was living in proverty
Plus he was a drugs addict
So nobody never want to hire him
Now him depress
But him didn't have to steal
from the gangleader

When you poor you do anything to survive
And he was deprived
of his own land by the Government
He could've used it for agriculture
or even lease it

Now look the gangleader looking for him
They should just leave him alone
What more them want?
His life too?

Lord have mercy
On poor Persy
what him go'in do now
He can't run forever
Hope he's in good hands
