(Verse 1)
You work like a dog and a slave pon the site
And the salary a fort a fortnight
Chumps fi tek you back a work, and you cyaa pay the light
And the landlord a seh a you last night
You tek a look in a the cob-board a cobweb
Hungry and a search fi the green a stop light
Imagine you try and you fail, and you try again
The enemies a laugh and you friend dem a back bite
(Chorus)
It’s almost time
Behind every dark cloud there’s a silver line
So we could turn
It’s almost time
Suh stay in a you lane
Nuh gamble wid you life, a nuh game
Real man maintain
(Verse 2)
Youths nuh touch the gun
Do nuh touch the gun
Nuh touch the gun
Do nuh touch the gun
And meditate fi go grab her purse
Nuh true mi grow from the slum you naw gi mi the work
You vampire system s**k
And you know mi well qualified and mi still run out a luck
You waan wi stay hungry and broke
But man a breath, inhale, exhale
Please believe
One day your day will come
(Repeat Chorus)
(Verse 3)
Hard fi stay out a trouble when you pot need fi bubbe
It hard fi gwaan like a nothing when you have a bag a
It hard fi hear you daughter seh daddy mi hungry
And you cyaa find the first dine
Is like you losing your mind
But ghetto youth…just breath
inhale, exhale
Please believe
One day your day will come
(Repeat CHorus)
