G#m F# E
(You remember) When we used to write letters and we never used to send text messages

The future is so great we can't forget the past, no
[Verse 1]
G#m F#
I'm passionate about this memory, I got this feeling
E
Question to the leaders and me ask them what them dealin'
G#m F#
They say that the world need a spiritual healin'
E
What about the youth that we leavin'?

The elders get bitter so them stop from teachin'
B Bsus4
Miles from the youth than how you ever reach them
B F#/A#
Tell me how you ever reach them

We remembering the past but if there wasn't the past just remember that there wouldn't be no future
G#m F#/A# E
So I say it with all costs on your behalf just like how Christ died for the youths, ya'
G#m F# E

If your objective is crime you keep being unkind then your own weapon will shoot ya'

Certain good things happen in the past
E
Now everything change, everybody move fast

(Move fast) And the youths, me see them act like them lost
E
Everybody wanna' be a rebel without a cause

F# E
And a roll down south everybody coulda' roll all about
B
Now the tension so high like it want touch the sky

'Dem a plan now, fi try get you out
G#m F# E
Mannerism is depleted, the past is deleted
'Dem fi know life's more than a flaas
G#m F#/A#
And the children used to listen to the teacher
E
Now the children 'dem a gwaan like 'dem a the teacher of the class
G#m F#
'Dem used to say thank you and good morning
E
Now not even question a ask
B
But you can't blame the youth cause they don't know the truth

There is no one to help 'dem stick to the task
