Don't Give Up
Don't give up
(don't give up)
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
(yah fi know the ruggedness ino)
Every ghetto youths, don't give up
(cya give up non t'all ino)
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
Dimitri nuh step deh suh
Badmind sprinkle oil, them a try stop yuh
Watch that building deh, them a program yuh
Them a work with Hunts Bay fi try gun dung yuh
Mi bredda them a enemy hunter
If you make Nash head hurt him, mi full you a gunshot
All me want fi do a live
All mi want fi do a stock the bread and buy the cribs
We afi give thanks fi life
We fight the fight times after times and still survive
Badmind yuh can't stop the shine
You expect fi escape hard life with a lazy mind
How yuh fi badmind Yung Elda
When you a one of the person them who me a dweet for
Them will red eye you over a sneakers
Suh imagine what them woulda do for a visa
The government take we for idiot
Mi nuh see a what we a vote for
Don't put you trust in them
If life was a thing that money could buy
The rich would live and the poor would die
Ghetto youths, don't give up
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
Ghetto youths, don't give up
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
The race is not just for the swift
There's so many rivers to cross, even a cliff yeah
There ain't no giving in
Mi bible and mi matic a mi everything
Them woulda want see mi dead longtime
But mi sure mi afi get what's mine
Cya mek them take mi points
Oh Lord, please show me a sign
Ghetto youths crying for the ghetto youths
Babylon treat we like seh we a fool
Papa never have it fi send him a school
But mama never raised no fool
These streets don't got no love for you
Is a concrete jungle so me go harder
Ghetto youths, don't give up
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
Ghetto youths, don't give up
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
Ghetto youths, don't give up
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
Ghetto youths, don't give up
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
(don't give up)
It's not about the fastest man
It's about who can endure
(yah fi know the ruggedness ino)
Every ghetto youths, don't give up
