Make Things Work
Aaah woah ooh
Yeah, yeah, aah
Kabaka here
Somehow, some way
Got to make things work
Long life, more pay
That's what I deserve
No time, no day
Hand to mouth cyaa work
I got to rule my destiny
I know what my life is worth
From you a hustle fi see better days
Mi know da one ya resonate
More time the system set away
Di place a get so desolate
And as the cost of living jus a rise
So mi blood pressure raise
An worse mi nuh have the most sophisticated kinda resume
Still man haffi mek it out
Mi work until mi sweat run out
All upon dem days when time di boss man waan fi stress mi out
Mi nah go mek him get mi out
I respect myself so you must show me some respect ya now
Or else I'm stepping out, yeah
Somehow, some way
Got to make things work (Ooh yeah)
Long life, more pay
That's what I deserve
No time, no day
Hand to mouth cyaa work (No time)
I got to rule my destiny
I know what my life is worth
Man a hustle fi di paper
Fi di bread I am the baker
Down inna Jamaica
Fi mek it, it nuh easy
Mi rather be a waiter
Than siddown an a wait like a wasteman
Fi nuh man gimme nuttin mi nuh needy
My determination fi richer dan Akon
And uplift the population cah Rastaman nuh greedy
A nuh hesitation inna mi meditation
Cah man anuh nuh slave mi waan fi move freely
But until then
Somehow, some way
Got to make things work (Daga yoyow)
Long life, more pay
That's what I deserve (Every dollar, every tick)
No time, no day (No day)
Hand to mouth cyaa work (Ooh yeah)
I got to rule my destiny
I know what my life is worth
I was born a king like the Pharaohs of Kemet
I nuh forward ya fi slave out so never you forget
But I'm always on time mi never miss a step
Why you treat mi unkind true a mi a buss a sweat
But mi nah go deya long because mi have some bigger plans
Mi waan fi be mi owna boss so mi a save up wah mi can
Invest inna some stocks, some options and bonds
I'm thinking long term I hope you overstand wah I and I a say
Somehow, some way (Some way)
Got to make things work (Woah yeah)
Long life, more pay (More pay)
That's what I deserve (Every dollar, every tick)
No time, no day
Hand to mouth cyaa work (No time)
I got to rule my destiny
I know what my life is worth
Somehow, some way
Got to make things work (Got to make things work)
Long life, more pay (More pay)
That's what I deserve (Keep living again)
No time, no day
Hand to mouth cyaa work (No to work)
I got to rule my destiny
I know what my life is worth (Daga yow, daga yow)
Aaah woah ooh
Yeah, yeah, aah
