(Verse 1)
Ghetto youth believe in yo self
Lace up yo Clark’s and buckle up yo belt
tek on di road fi di wealth
Watch when pagan a melt
Mama, mi a go meck yo proud don’t worry yo self
Daddy a go proud don’t worry yo self
suffaration soon done Spidel
High speed don’t worry yo self
Jah clear every trap weh dem set up
Dem waan hear seh mi dead or get lock up
Forward Poppy seh, full man cup
Everyday more money stock up
(Chorus)
Dem waan mi fi sad, but mi a go smile again
Yeh mi a go smile again
Dem waan mi fi dead, but mi a go smile again
I will smile again
Dem waan mi fi dead, wi a go smile again
Ghetto youth a go smile again
Dem waan mi fi run weh, anyweh mi deh mi run deh
From sunday, to sunday
(Verse 2)
Dem waan mi mother head hurt are
Waan hear mi crash out inna fast car
A inna di father mi trust
Every ghetto youth fi buss weh an tun star
Money fi run like champagne
Mommy house pon di hill mi a campaign
ghetto youths seh hotel wi fi have plane
Happy not sad pain
Dem a sing don’t try Octane
(Repeat Chorus)
(Verse 3)
The struggle meck wi strong wen wi a grow up
whole heap a friend gone squady just roll up
Give thanks when yo live till yo get old up
Real tugs never get cold up
A no anybwoy can live the life weh mi live
Justus call dem mind negative
Forever take care a mi relative
Happiness fi my enemies
(Repeat Chorus 2X)
