It was huge!!! I remember it played every morning as I was getting ready for school! Especially that our political atmosphere was tumultuous at the time!-(
In 2024,this song bring back gut wrenching memories for many Guyanese 🇬🇾. My fondest memory was that of the Phantom Death Squad. People,youths just vanishes. Still missing unto today. Robo cop kicking a pregnant woman on the pave. Bro,those days were some dark days. Hope we never have to see those days again.😔
+calvin alleyne I am Guyanese also, I currently live in Antigua and have been living here for the past 13 years but I agree with you, I used to hear this song, every morning when I was a child
I do not care where I am, when ever I hear this song I gotta cry! This song was highly played during Guyana's crime wave, especially during the days of the Fanthom Squad. This song deserves more views and an award! But, good music are not acknowledged 🇬🇾
After the brutal murders of Isaiah and Joel yesterday, this song came to mind when I saw a video of Joel's mother screaming her heart out, God please don't let Guyana go back to the way it was 🥺🙏🏽
I think this should have never happen again my belief and strongly believe politicians played a major role in this case of racism my view not necessarily might be yours the Indians went and did the dirty work of killings these boys and then in retaliation the blacks did what the done to Haresh Singh I could be wrong but we should lived as one and this should not repeat again one love
St.Lucians this one is dedicated to you'll today and this moment on. Please stop these senseless killings. Praying for a better nation 🙏 and a better world for the coming future
@@ghettosuperstar2able *he is speaking about someone who died in Guyana and many Guyanese play this song due to the oppression the country went through at that time.
dam when this first came i too young to understand it but I'm older and wiser now and this songs is so powerful spitting fact the truth every bit is true
Imagine this song doesn't even have a million views and it's been around from the 90s but a song about sex, guns and drugs reaches a million in a matter of days... Too many lost souls in this world, we forward the same things that are destroying our world, community, society.. C' mon world y'all can do better!!
Tune hard. So so much the reality we living here in 2024. Crazy thing this song should be played every day and every hour. But it's good and speaks volumes so it's hidden and does not get highlighted. That's the sad reality
They say we're humans.. mistakes happen .. but how many times will we say that without accepting what was really done, Without learning and teaching our brothers and sisters? August 2023 and I searched for this song and have it on repeat... Many senseless killing and use of our road ways, we're losing so many young lives, so much pain and suffering.... how many more?... #Guyana 🙏
I remember when the phantom squad was in existence, that was such a horrible time for us as a country, we still have a long way to go, JUSTICE for the Henry boys, JUSTICE for Shonelle Smith. To God be the glory.
Omg ..i absolutely LOVEEE this song. So glad its on UA-cam, John King's lyrics were just so on point.. powerful words. I get goosebumps everytime i hear it. Another really good song too is 'Why Me' by Adrian Clarke from the mid-90s as well..Not sure if it's on youtube tho
Its 2023 and each time a youth is gunned down in the streets of my sweet Trinidad & Tobago and another mother hold her belly and bawl, this song come to mind. How many more must die, when would this senseless killing stop, we on bending knees , begging and pleading, youth man put down the guns, too much blood flowing on the streets like water. 😥😥😥😥
2024 anyone is here?
Many years later, and this song is still relevant 👍🏼
Very this should always be number hit
This should always be number one his every time
Being from Barbados. I had no clue this tune was so large in Guyana. One love to the Guyanese brethren ✌🏾
Respect

This song hit we guyanese hard ... close to home per say ... due to what governance was doing guyanese of other race ....
The same to you my fellow brethren lots of love from and my family in Guyana
It was huge!!! I remember it played every morning as I was getting ready for school! Especially that our political atmosphere was tumultuous at the time!-(

Too many lost souls in this world, we forward the same things that are destroying our world, community, society.. C' mon world y'all can do better!!
It’s getting so bad in Toronto. May God rest the souls of our sons and daughters lost to gun violence 🙏🏾
This song should be the anthem to stop violence that is crippling the carribbean Islands.
This song lives on... Will always remember the tribute made to Gillian Bayne with this at Frank Collymore Hall. Words can never explain.

Forever a classic..... brings back so many memories
I grew up listening to this song and many more songs. My Dad had a lot of inspirational albums!. Just rediscovered it after about 38 yrs later!!!
Big tune this it's 2020 and it's still a big hit...
This popped into my head when i was meditating on life.
Same here.
Tune hard. So so much the reality we living here in 2024. Crazy thing this song should be played every day and every hour. But it's good and speaks volumes so it's hidden and does not get highlighted. That's the sad reality
This now took me down memory lane in Barbados back in the day
🇬🇾..throwback in Guyana
They say we're humans.. mistakes happen .. but how many times will we say that without accepting what was really done, Without learning and teaching our brothers and sisters? August 2023 and I searched for this song and have it on repeat... Many senseless killing and use of our road ways, we're losing so many young lives, so much pain and suffering.... how many more?... #Guyana 🙏
I really love this song, this song continues to be relevant each day.... Anyone listen??
God bless GUYANA 🇬🇾
