They Don't Know
Yeh
And you know they say
You can never judge a book by its cover
Yuh know
You can never really see
What's inside a person
You only see what's on the surface
Sometimes you gotta dig a little deeper
See what's inside
Just one look they already judge me
And they don't know how life set
No they don't know how life gets
Fi me
Just one look they already judge me
And they don't know how life set
No they don't know how life gets
Fi me
Pon a real I just know I
Could'a been dead by now
But you see the most high
Kept him close I never let my guard down
Yuh si like how life is a cyclone
Karma go right round
We never hype bout
The fame an the cash cos
Where i'm from we'd survive off 5 pound
No I'd never be the type to borrow
Or lend to friends who disguise tomorrow'
Yuh see a mans face when him smile
I wish you could see his heart through his eyes
Likkle JD white rum save me
Behind cup fulls I stood to hide the sorrows
Behind big spliffs I stand
Because these friends make me kinda parro
I told myself don't need friends
I need cash so I trapped on the weekend
I never pictured moving food
But my needs took me to the deep end
Now I'm 5'10 in the deep end
But the trap wasn't me nah pretend
But I told myself any means necessary
Sometime play wolf for the sheep dem
Because from the wolfs yuh learn alot
Yuh run the race fi earn a spot
Yuh need fi train fi earn a spot
Put in the time yuh learn alot
Protect and watch who turns yuh clock
Time yuh waste is not returning back
Make the most of what you got
Irrespective circumstances
From my lifetime I've learned a lot
Yuh know the main thing I learnt is that
Be the best you can be yea
They will judge you anyway
Be the best you you can be yea
They will judge you anyway
Just one look they already judge me
And they don't know how life set
No they don't know how life gets
Fi me
Just one look they already judge me
And they don't know how life set
No they don't know how life gets
Fi me
So easy to judge
Based on what you see on the surface
But nobody ent perfect
An I believe that the struggle was worth it
An I believe that the pain I face
Is causing me to take the shape
Into a man who stand amongst the great
Into a man who will stand long after he has
Met his faith
'Cos the race ent only for the swift
It's for those who can endure
An after the hype and gor
Success mean so much more
Yuh see the heights of great men rich and kept
Were not obtained by sudden flight
Meanwhile his companions slept
He adhered to this same advice
Strive strive
Be the best you can be yea
They will judge you anyway
Be the best you you can be yea
They will judge you anyway
Just one look they already judge me
And they don't know how life set
No they don't know how life gets
Fi me
Just one look they already judge me
And they don't know how life set
No they don't know how life gets
Fi me
And you know they say
You can never judge a book by its cover
Yuh know
You can never really see
What's inside a person
You only see what's on the surface
Sometimes you gotta dig a little deeper
See what's inside
Just one look they already judge me
And they don't know how life set
No they don't know how life gets

No they don't know how life gets
