Kingston Mines

If all Philosophy
  is a footnote to Plato

Then all Rock & Roll
  —is but a tribute to the Blues

(Chicago Illinois: August, 1994)

Down Town Kingston

The guns are going off in Downtown Kingston 
Police and bad man are at war 
World War three just got started in the streets of Kingston 
We need to clean up the problem... without Dudus downtown is in a predicament      
The sound of guns going off is a constant noise in our ears 
We are in a war zone 
We are in a war we didn't start
How do we bring back peace ...it's started with political parties fighting for votes, tribalism 
Now its ending with innocent lives in a graveyard 
Lifeless bodies
Blood all over 
No one will tell the truth 
We need the army not the police, they can't help us
It's a war zone in downtown Kingston...150 dead more bodies still counting 
How many more will of to die for the peace to come ...We are living in a war zone
