Jamaican Till I Die!

Worth the Watch These people are armed to the teeth

Growing up in Jamaica, we were brainwashed into believing the USA system of Government, Constitution and laws was superior to any other system on planet earth. The average Jamaican knows more about the US Constitution and Bill of Right than they do about the Jamaican Constitution. It is not uncommon for them in a debate to quote the US constitution as if it was the Jamaican Constitution. The average Jamaica does not know one line of the Jamaican Constitution.  Imagine my shock and awe on finding out it is just as dysfunctional as most and more dysfunctional than some. Americans love to make their system of Government sound mystical and magical. Something unique and above all the rest.

If the British were right then Africans who use to sell other Africans to the British, are now buying Africans and middle easterners from the British. A kind of reverse middle passage. Denmark also has a deal with Rwanda to take refugees. So, Rwanda is trying to make a profit trading in human souls. On top

Lyrics [Verse 1: Stephen Marley] Educate yourselves, of Africa To liberate yourself, Africa Keep your heads up high No more will we cry Eeeeyh Our history that they stole, Africa Is written in our souls, Africa Oldest nation on this earth Know just what you worth Well well Ships that sail to distant places Robbed us of our rights and worth History says that you've betrayed us Talking of the Gods you serve Hear the rambling in the sky Tears that our forefathers cry And today we're still in chains Take the shackle from our minds You're the cornerstone The king upon the throne How beautiful are thou, Africa All nation have to bow, Africa Don't you fall from grace You're that secret place Aye! Aye-ah-aye! [Verse 2: Wale] Power to the people, Motherland representa I'm on trial with the man she my co-defendant And I demand her attention, can you focus women? I'm getting closer to the sky errytime I hit it Haile Selassie I, "Power of the Trinity" Soul mad
