THINK, TAG, TOUGH (Does the life’s clock of our yut)

http://www.eyestorm.com/works/detail/Reggie_Pedro/14253.html


Never listened

Never thought

Never looked at it

Never thought

Tic, tac, toc…


Think, tag, tough…

Goes the clock of our yut

Think rebellion indeed

Think of free spirit

Think immortality

None of those are reality


No stake-in

No good past,

No good present,

Tic, tac, toc…

Marks the time of our yut

Tic, tac, toc…

Ambition to get rich quick

Perdition of our community indeed


Think, tag, tough…

Always agile

Always hustle

Always fragile

And never think

How our yut, end up in?

Think they fight the system

But they fight their own soul

Thinking it is what it is

But they don’t have a clue at all

Tic, tag, tough…

They want liberty

And they end up locked


Think, tag, tough…

Tag attached to your ankle

Dictating ur time to get home

You’d not listen to elders always rumble

Now you understood

Think, tag, tough…

Does the clock of our yut

Now they track you

Like a rat lab

Now you end up

At the end of their trap

What you gonna do?

Everywhere with that mark

At a sweet and tender age

That you should enjoy

Now that you’re locked

She will be gone

With another boy

Think, tag, tough…

To many of our yut,

By this system caught

We discuss and complain

We complain and discuss

But no one acts

We’re accomplices

Of their path


Think, tag, tough…

We hold the lives of our youth

We’re the ones who their live

Direct and guide

It is our duty

To rebuild our community with pride

Think, tag, tough..

When will we wake up

And realise that enough is enough

Children caught in a system

That they don’t understand

If we know how it stands

What are we doing to protect them

Tic, tac, toc…

Passes the time of our yut

Think or time’ll be tough…

Never thought

Will be that tough

Never thought

Will end up locked

Think, tag, tough

Is the rhythm of our yut’s clock


Now in crown court

Everything is revealed

The enemy tries to disguise

With gentle legal appeal

Behind a language unclear

That you try to unveil

Tic, tac, toc…

The system didn’t change

Although the time passed on ur clock

Their wig is the same

As when they openly treated u inhumane

Think, tag, tough…

Now that u’re here

They’re having a laugh

U completed the circle

And the system is full

You didn’t need to be wise or oracle

U just needed not to be a fool


Tic, tac, toc…

Goes the clock of our youth

Think, tag, tough…

It’s my advice to all of you
