30 Million

No, no, no, no, no, no way
You nuh see, it mad out deh?
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no way
Ay, ay

Things just ain't the same, no mama
Son ah tun scammer, shell down Alabama
Youth them get caught in the glitz and the glamour (what?)
Bricks and the hammers, long clips full a ammo (boom, boom)
Every day is a drama
Guard ring, body armor
Protect from everything except fi the karma (hmm)

Man nah try look to no sky fi no manna
Understandable, who can wait pon tomorrow
Or fi beg or fi borrow
That's the horrible truth too

Government cyaan find a thing fi the youths do (no)
Poverty no cute and you know that's the root
A three thousand fi apartment a Ruthven Avenue (heh)
Everyone I assume, want live comfortable too
Honest man look ah work, sent him youth dem go school
But in the place weh you screwed if you follow the rules
What ah the alternative you think somebody ago choose?

Because a 30 million fi a house up a Stony, yeah
Good ol' days
How we fi live under dem standard? You don't say
No, no way
Haffi militant, vigilant, haffi hol' it, hey
'Cause a no 30 million fi no house, none at all
How we fi survive? Wah a gwaan down a yard? (Boom)

A million is not a what it used to be (woop)
Farming used to power communities (woop)
A degree used to mean opportunity (woop)
Only thing man a read now a eulogy (boom)
Funeral parlor (parlor)

Say business is booming (booming)
School dem get empty (empty)
So, prison is looming (watch)
Molly consuming (yeah)
Dolly dem grooming (yeah)
Where do you run to? (Where?)
Like Lila in Blooming

But we haffi survive and we ah put up a fight
Cah life haffi live and me say things haffi buy
Cah money fi make and investments fi set
But even that under threat, financial sector a fret
I mean, what's that about?
Me see all Bolt make a sound (sound)
Can't believe the people wacky dip inna him account (watch ya)
Look pon money ah spend, European ah trend
Real estate recommend man haffi re-up again

Because a 30 million fi a house up a Stony, yeah
Good ol' days
How we fi live under dem standard? You don't say
No, no way
Haffi militant, vigilant, haffi hol' it, hey
'Cause a no 30 million fi no house, none at all
How we fi survive? Wah a gwaan down a yard?

Haha, okay
So
So, we do it now
So
Ah, so we do it, alright
So
This is the Jamaican situation
Interesting days to come

Me say a no 30 million, enuh
Me ah hope you really overstand me, you know
Me say a no 30 million, enuh
(Boom)
