Tribal war
 We nuh want no more a dat
 Every man deserve to earn
 And every child deserve to learn, now
 Tribal war
 ♪
 A nuh dat we a defend
 ♪
 Every man deserve a turn
 ♪
 Like a flame deserve to burn
 [Verse 1 -
 Man what happened to us?
 Geographically they moved us
 From africa
 We was once happiness pursuers
 Now we back stabbing, combative and abusive
 The african and arab go at it they most muslim
 Used to be moving in unison
 Disputes would end
 Bounty hunters and grape street get cool again
 Some standard housing
 Got the young running rampant
 Wilding, for a phantom
 He can style in
 Mask on his face
 Grabbing his luger
 Saying, 'gnobody move or I'll shoot ya'
 Man you're expiring
 Catch 25 and he does it like a man
 He sides with black,
 White pride and mexican
 Survive the best he can
 Strap a shank to his thigh
 Why do we all collide?
 Why do the young die?
 Extortion, murder and burglary
 Tattoos his chest
 Says his enemies don't deserve to breathe
 [Chorus 2 - Jr.
 Tribal war
 We nuh want no more a dat
 Everyone deserve to earn
 And every child deserve to learn, lord
 Tribal war
 A nuh dat we a defend
 Each and every man deserve a turn
 Like a flame deserve to burn
 [Verse 2 -
 I drink poison
 Then I vomit diamonds
 I gave you mandela, black dalai lamas
 I gave you music
 You enthused in my kindness
 So how dare you reduce me to donny imus
 Timeless in case we never been acquainted
 Flyness who made it
 It gets duplicated
 Mindless violence
 Well let me try to paint it
 Here's the 5 steps
 In hopes to explain it
 One!
 Its me and my nation against the world
 Two!
 Then me and my clan against the nation
 Three!
 Then me and my fam' against the clan
 Four!
 Then me and my brother we no hesitation
 Uh!
 Go against the fam' until they cave in
 Five!
 Now who's left in this deadly equation?
 That's right, it's me against my brother
 Then we point a kalashnikov
 And kill one another
 [Chorus 3 - Jr.
 Tribal war
 We nuh want no more a dat
 Everyone deserve to earn
 And every child deserve to learn
 Tribal war
 A nuh dat we a defend
 Every man deserve a turn
 Like a flame deserve to burn
 [Verse 3 - Jr.
 Man a war tribal
 Over colors
 Over money, over land, and over oil, and over god
 And over idols, and even lovers
 Over breakfast, over dinner, over suppers
 Over jungle, over rema, over buckers
 Over brooklyn, over queens, and over rutgers
 Over red, and over blue, and over chuckers
 Over red and over blue and under covers
 Tribal trouble
 The drive by s double
 Cause the youth dem nah go war
 And go fight with knuckle
 The two sides scuffle
 Vietnam nah go a war
 With no more kung fu nun chuckle
 Missile and shuttle
 Huh
 And the queen of england and uncle sam
 Dem a flex dem muscle
 The tribal hustle
 Blood diamond poodle
 Survival struggle
 [Chorus 4 - Jr.
 Tribal war
 We nuh want no more a dat
 Everyone deserve to earn
 Every child deserve to learn
 Tribal war
 A nuh dat we a defend
 ♪
 Each and every man deserve a turn
 ♪
 Like a flame deserve to burn
