(Verse 1)
I didn’t grow see no mother
I didn’t see life like those others
Kids, but I was brought up with manner
I didn’t though to used the wrong words
Shi deserve mi money so mi mine her good yes
Mama never ever hide her goodness
All when shi couldn’t buy her good dress
Wi a sleep shi deny her good rest
Shi keep me warm when there’s a storm
From I was a baby bwoy
And now I’ve grown to be a man
So am gonna play my part
(Chorus)
Mama sufferation soon over
Cause my grandmother teach me fi fight life like a soldier
Yes I’ve pray and pray to Jehovah
The best is to come keep your eye open
(Verse 2)
Better days de ahead yaw mama
Think bout you every night mi go a mi bed yaw mama
Hey, sufferation knock mi like sledge hammer
Preserve your life that everyday mi beg Jah, Jah
Not far from the witted papa
Soon cyaa fix the house top meck things proper
Poverty soon stop juck wi like macka
The victory it sweet so every song mi get hotter
(Repeat Chorus 2X)
(Repeat Verse 1)
(Repeat Chorus)
