| I know nuff a them woulda want we gone
|
| (I know them woulda want me gone)
|
| Sit down everyday and a wish we harm
|
| (Too much time pon them hands, you nuh?)
|
| But why would a king ever fear a pawn?
|
| (A king would never hear them)
|
| So what them a go do when they hear this one?
|
| Bang bang
|
| (Yeh)
|
| No take tellings, want me no fi say this
|
| Man will see you farm and gone inna you lettuce
|
| People mean you harm, you can’t tell what a friend is
|
| Grudge you for your paper, scorn you for your pennies
|
| When you nuh see me, me gone fi get replenish
|
| Back up in the morning, can’t forget the message, no
|
| Avocado she feel for it, me send it
|
| Them yam and banana, it sweet to she belly, jeez
|
| A what make life sweet so like a jelly
|
| Climb fi it, it hard, can’t easy so fi get it
|
| Song deh pon the radio, video pon the telly
|
| Love inna me heart, me a spread it, catch the medi
|
| People got expectaions (expectations)
|
| Will they love you? |
| No guarantee (no guarantee)
|
| People all need salvation (need salvation)
|
| Will they save you? |
| No guarantee (no guarantee)
|
| Some no like how you live, want fi carry you go court
|
| Some will burn every bridge and still a look fi support
|
| Jealousy is a cloud, check the weather report
|
| That’s why me tighten the ship and then me arm up the fort
|
| Now the biggest of foes, once the closest of friends
|
| But you know how it goes, oh the fake will pretend
|
| Some will shake off your hand and break bread in your house
|
| Soon as you turn your back them waa run up on your spouse
|
| Some will say you no ras 'cause you jump in a benz
|
| Like me never see Selassie in a couple of them
|
| Some a watch what you earn and a count what you spend
|
| Always want it fi borrow, never have it fi lend
|
| But you see…
|
| People got expectaions (expectations)
|
| Will they love you? |
| No guarantee (no guarantee)
|
| People all need salvation (need salvation)
|
| Will they save you? |
| No guarantee (no guarantee)
|
| (Ayy)
|
| No matter what them a go say, me haffi live me life
|
| No worries pon me head when me a go a bed a night
|
| Mummy, daddy, sister, yara, everybody nice
|
| Cousin, aunty, bredrin, yeah them haffi get a slice
|
| Man them used to pack a thing and put it pon a bike
|
| Send it go a town and them hitch it pon a flight
|
| When it reach a foreign them a go triple the price
|
| Benz inna community and bimma like a…
|
| Rice!
|
| Get 'way with it once and so them haffi do it twice
|
| One deh underground, the other one a jail fi life
|
| A valuable lesson: Nothing happen over night
