Real talk
Nuff a dem no know bout struggle
Nuff a dem no know how life hard
Hey

Tired fi hear mi people bawl
Tired fi see di youths dem fall
Politicians dem trick wi and after all
Dem no do nothing fi fix it wi all become di victims
Tired fi hear di mothers cry
Tired fi see di youths dem die
Police killing di youths without a reason why
Affi look up to di sky and ask di father why

System frig up it set a way
Everyday seh mi pray fi a better way
Stay true to di ting mi will never stray
Work get harder every day but dem no raise no pay hey
Mi aim fi win I'm not a failure
An mi no trust inna no man mi trust di savior
But if you dis mi you ago see mi bad behavior
Mama seh no worry son you blessed and highly favored

Tired fi hear mi people bawl
Tired fi see di youths dem fall
Politicians dem trick wi and after all
Dem no do nothing fi fix it wi all become di victims
Tired fi hear di mothers cry
Tired fi see di youths dem die
Police killing di youths without a reason why
Affi look up to di sky and ask di father why

Wi living good so nuff think seh it easy
No know mi life but some bwoy wanna be mi
Know mi a come from far
Mi memba when a hand cart was my first car
Mi used to hustle callaloo inna di market
Nyam so so dumplin no have no ackee or no saltfish
Walk barefoot inna di street
But now mi plate full got adidas on ma feet
Yeah tho I walk through di valley of death
Mi a god bless so me nah fret
Me nah go worry
Me nah go stress
Take a look at my life see that I'm blessed
Dem waan mi loose ma mind
But mi naw pay dem mind
Haters waan fi stop mi shine
Too red eye dem too bad mind
Block dem like a call declined
They're just a waste of time
And everyday mi rise an pray mi thank God for my life

Thank you
Yeah mon
Yow just inspite a anything enuh
Just make sure seh you give thanks if you live fi see another day

Tired fi hear mi people bawl
Tired fi see di youths dem fall
Politicians dem trick wi and after all
Dem no do nothing fi fix it wi all become di victims
Tired fi hear di mothers cry
Tired fi see di youths dem die
Police killing di youths without a reason why
Affi look up to the di and ask di father why
