Jack a**, unno nuh tired fi pressure poor people
Well, Babatunde have a message fi you
You si, alright
Never let your problems get you down
Gotta stay focused and hold your ground
Though it seems hopeless
There is no progress
Wi still a hustle 'round town
We do what we do so we stay alive
We sell what we sell so we haffi survive
Wi tired a the f*ckry and wi fed up from 'bout 95
So, tell them seh anytime
Mi hungry again them a guh si mi nine
Police outta road seh them a fight crime
And holiday a come and mi nuh si the first dime
Tell them seh anytime
The government policies a undermine
Poor people plight that a sure sign
Corruption and war a guh reach it's prime
So, tell them seh anytime
Mi hungry again them a guh si mi nine
Police outta road seh them a fight crime
And holiday a come and mi nuh si the first dime
Tell them seh anytime
The government policies a undermine
Poor people plight that a sure sign
Corruption and war a guh reach it's prime
Imagine after mi try my best fi survive the street
Sometimes mi wonder how some people do it
'Nuff time it burn mi, mamma clean dirty floor
So the kids can eat
Five christmas now mi don't drink nuh sorrel
Landlord and mamma deh a courthouse a quarrel
Chin a send a cris chrome nine inna a barrel
What you expect me to do
Them ramp with wi future wi take it wid a smile
A we feel the pinch now when everything spoil
Poverty and hunger a nuh easy lifestyle
Wi tired and wi tired, and wi tired
