RUE THE DAY
The last word of the blog—and the charge the commentaries build toward: participate, or live to rue the day.
Dem a go live fi rue di day dem neva participate
Wah mi seh?
Dem a go live fi rue di day dem neva participate
Dem holla dem bawlbout this, bout thatcrime and injusticewhen it is time fi act,they backtrack
Dem a go live fi rue di day dem neva participate
Wah mi seh?
Dem a go live fi rue di day dem neva participate
Dem holla dem bawlfi changenow that changes areabound, they act notA wah dis sah?Nothing caan go?Apathy and Ignorance
