Kalonji (Life We Choose)

Inna yuh life you fi know yuh grounds
Certain friends wah yuh have woulda hold yuh down
Come like when you have you are the top man
And when yuh not have yuh not see dem nuh
Affi know who ah mix, who ah pour the rum
Nuff ah dem ah parasite dem ah fucking clown
Yea, dem ah fucking clown

And nuttin' if ah never kill, never pop a pill, never kill a man dawg
Never haffi sign down inna di station
Nuff ah mi friendem dey inna di morgue
Free mi dawg inna di penitention
Tired of the modern day slavery days
Man just wah rich like me own di stage
Free all my dawgs ah just wah buss di gate
Put your trust in God, dawg, hold the faith

This ah nuh di life we choose
Badness never nice like Sunday food
'Cause if you make a mistake
Nine nights inna yuh place
Next day yuh make headline pon the news, dawg

This ah nuh di life we choose
Badness never nice like Sunday food
If you make a mistake
Nine nights inna yuh place
Next day yuh make headline pon the news, yeah

Ah nuff time mi see how badmind wicked
Di fucker dem grudge yuh fi yuh own ah tings
And ah nuff time mi see fucking jealousy
Like friend kill dem friend over something petty
Nah beg nuttin' from dem, nah need dem energy
Have some friend inna life, know them ah frienemies
The dirty heart cyaan come close to me
Yeah, yeah

This ah nuh di life we choose
Badness never nice like Sunday food
'Cause if you make a mistake
Nine nights inna yuh place
Next day yuh make headline pon the news, dawg

This ah nuh di life we choose
Badness never nice like Sunday food
If you make a mistake
Nine nights inna yuh place
Next day yuh make headline pon the news, yeah

Ah nuff time mi see how badmind wicked
Di fucker dem grudge yuh fi yuh own ah tings
And ah nuff time mi see fucking jealousy
Like friend kill dem friend over something petty
Nah beg nuttin' from dem, nah need dem energy
Have some friend inna life, know them ah frienemies
The dirty heart cyaan come close to me
Yeah, yeah

This ah nuh di life we choose
Badness never nice like Sunday food
'Cause if you make a mistake
Nine nights inna yuh place
Next day yuh make headline pon the news, dawg

This ah nuh di life we choose
Badness never nice like Sunday food
If you make a mistake
Nine nights inna yuh place
Next day yuh make headline pon the news, yeah
