Banks of the Hope
Hey, watch yah now
Hey, see yah now
Hey, cool yah now
Huh, huh, huh
Huh-huh, huh-huh
Huh, huh, huh
Huh, huh-huh-huh, huh
Huh, huh-huh-huh, huh
Huh, huh-huh-huh, huh
Huh, huh
Yeah, we put Jah first and second and third
Watch we blessings come forth
Blessings come forth
Yow, it is a miracle
Fi make your thing shot
And nuh end up at Gun Court
End up at Gun Court
Aah, huh
Growing up on the banks of the Hope
Never give up and we never lose hope
And we never sell out and never sell dope
Now, ironically everything weh we say
They say it's dope (listen)
It never break we spirit growing up broke
Roll out smelling like carbolic soap
Yes, a regular, we run boat just fi stay afloat
And we run joke just fi cope
Hear what now, social mobility, limited scope
But mama make we know seh time longer than rope
We nuh frighten fi nothing 'cause we used to go without
From food stamps but now stamp full up we passport
Hear what, juvenile nuh put no gun inna your Jansport
Fi collect no banknote, no that a the wrong sport
Hey, everybody want a bus like public transport
But hold the fort, everything curry like goat
Put Jah first and second and third
Watch we blessings come forth
Blessings come forth
Yow, it is a miracle
Fi make your thing shot
And nuh end up at Gun Court
End up at Gun Court
Aah, huh
Growing up on the banks of the Hope
Never give up and we never lose hope
And we never sell out and never sell dope
Now, ironically everything weh we say
They say it's dope (listen)
Marl Road, Top Road to Back Road
Affi make a mark like the chalk pon the blackboard
Hey, affi do a thing fi mama pot load
Swear we nuh affi make the Glock load
Hear what now, the whole a Tavern
Hope Flat back to Common
Tin mackerel affi kill we 'cause we nuh go bow fi salmon
And we nuh go a no station, answer to no summons
Putting up resistance just like Beres Hammond
Put Jah first and second and third
Watch we blessings come forth
Blessings come forth
Yow, it is a miracle
Fi make your thing shot
And nuh end up at Gun Court
End up at Gun Court
Aah, huh
Growing up on the banks of the Hope
Never give up and we never lose hope
And we never sell out and never sell dope
Now, ironically everything weh we say
They say it's dope (listen)
Huh, huh-huh-huh, huh
Huh, hey, cool yah now
Huh, huh-huh-huh, huh

Growing up on the banks of the Hope
Never give up and we never lose hope
And we never sell out and never sell dope
