Youts of Babylon ft Wise Intelligent(PRT), Kendal, and Israyl is a call to end gun violence in the cities across the country and the world for that matter and to shut down the gun stores, gun clubs and gun culture. It was sparked by an increase in shootings in Newark, NJ. Produced by Juggla in a "Yard-Hop" style. Hip-Hop + Reggae= Yard-Hop.
lyrics
Youts of Babylon
(Chorus-Kendal)
The Youts of Babylon have to know what's goin on
The Youts of Jerusalem must put down their magnum pistol
Pistol, Pistol
(Jugg Verse)
Some of dem shoot, me a cry fi di yout, da youts of New Jerusalem
Army, Navy , and Marines, Blood and Crip recruitin' them
Young mind it's gun time nuff Mach-ele(mach-11) fi shoot fi dem
America is crumbling down- take di yout and keep reducing them
C.I.A. is swoopin in - Babylon start the abuse again
Confiscate the ganja and give them coke and crack and hallucinogen
Control the education take the facts and they dilutin' them
Wise Intelligent and Juggla - consciousness for the youth and them
Coming upon the spot we have to teach all the yout dem culture
Tell them what a gwaan as we avoid all them vulture
Brick City hot you know - mi nuh like what happen bout ya
Yout dem carry glock a dem too young fi gwaan like soldier
A hundred and fifty gun dem have a hundred and fifty gun and
X-amount a clip fi fire thousands of rounds and
Walk around the town you hear the distinctive sound
The same thing gonna happen 'til the gun store get shut down
(Chorus)
(Wise Intelligent Verse)
(Chorus)
(Israyl Verse)
(Bridge- Kendal)
(Chorus)
