Disturbance in the family
Mama can't take it
Disturbance in the family
Papa can't stand it
Life in our community
Is not the way it used to be
There is too much tragedy
Our lives are in jeopardy
Oh well
Another roadblock, roadblock
Dem say make we stop
Everyday another youth gets shot
Yes it's a roadblock, roadblock
Dem say make we stop
Why must it be another black a kill off?
We don't need no guns nor drugs
And we don't need to live like thugs
Hanging out at bars and pubs
That's not the life for me
Oh no
Disturbance in the family
Grandma can't take it
Disturbance in the family
Grandpa can't stand it
Children honor your parents
That your days may be long
And don't go dissing your elders
'Cause you know that is wrong
Tired of the roadblock, roadblock
Dem say make we stop
Everyday another youth gets shot
Another roadblock, roadblock
Dem say make we stop
Why must it be another black a kill off?
Oh, life in the community
Is not the way it used to be
'Cause there is too much tragedy
Our youths are in jeopardy
Oh God
Disturbance in the family
Oh, mama can't take it
Disturbance in the family
Papa can't stand it
Too much war and crime out there
People living in fear and despair
Heads of government don't care
Oh Jah, oh Jah
Another roadblock, roadblock
Dem say make we stop
Everyday another youth gets shot
Another roadblock, roadblock
Dem say make we stop
Why must it be another black a kill off?
Another roadblock, roadblock
Dem say make we stop
It couldn't be the youth, him maybe not a child
Another roadblock, roadblock
Dem say make we stop
Why must it be another black a kill off?
Genocide
It's a tragedy
Oh God, God Almighty
