"Self Interest" lyrics

"Self Interest"

Unity is strength and with strength you can gain through power don't go sell out for flour

Kindness is gone it seems like no love nuh deh again
Not even trust nuh deh again
I don't think no more us nuh deh again
All we hear is people problem
When me look around is like no respect nuh deh again
Yuh can't even trust nuh friend again
People rights nah get defend again
Is only self interest that is the trend

How them fi tell we clean we house
And them naah clean fi them own
Is pure corruption deh up inna the zone
All kind of things a spring up from the unknown
When yuh live inna glass house yuh shouldn't throw stone
Some seh integrity but them deh days missin'
If yuh nuh careful them use yuh like tissue
Try refresh them memory and nobody naah listen
Them rather when yuh turn up missin'

Kindness is gone it seems like no love nuh deh again
Not even trust nuh deh again
I don't think no more us nuh deh again
All we hear is people problem
When me look around is like no respect nuh deh again
Yuh can't even trust nuh friend again
People rights nah get defend again
Is only self interest that is the trend

Wah yuh right hand know yuh know it cant tell yuh lefthand
Man we turn around and use it as a weapon
Never mek them know yuh mind deh pon
Yuh surroundings yuh hafi check it every second
Some a them a sell out fi personal gain
A bend pon the knee fi fortune and fame
A laugh and giggle and think is a game
But me naah bow a me name wah me name

Kindness is gone it seems like no love nuh deh again
Not even trust nuh deh again
I don't think no more us nuh deh again
All we hear is people problem
When me look around is like no respect nuh deh again
Yuh can't even trust nuh friend again
People rights nah get defend again
Is only self interest that is the trend

Anyone weh sellout fi personal gain
To me it seems like them lick up them brain
It look like them stupid or gone insane
Them greed just cant contain
Most a them we smile infront yuh face and them a sellout
Caah stay roun yahso them hafi head out
Them caah even stan straight because them ben out
Them nuh have nuh moral standards brain shell out

Kindness is gone it seems like no love nuh deh again
Not even trust nuh deh again
I don't think no more us nuh deh again
All we hear is people problem
When me look around is like no respect nuh deh again
Yuh can't even trust nuh friend again
People rights nah get defend again
Is only self interest that is the trend
