[00:00:03] And nobody nah listen all along

[00:00:09] So this is to all of you from all of us

[00:00:12] Providing no jobs and

[00:00:13] Telling us stop the crime

[00:00:15] Is like beating a child

[00:00:16] And telling him not to cry

[00:00:18] With all the highways you a build

[00:00:20] And go through
