[Chorus:] Wi a feel the pain Wi a face the struggle Ghetto life nuh easy Not only in a trouble We call on Jah Call on Jah A nuh me alone Everybody feel it Hungry fi days the white squal dem a feel it Mi call on Jah Call on Jah [Verse 1:] Wa dem know bout No bother true yo si mi smile yo think mi life sweet Many nights mi cry tears in a my sleep Hungry mi try hide it But it itch up down a my street Jah stick it a swell But mi know seh it a flag steep Suh youths nuh try stray a nuh suh wi stay Even though yo work hard and nuh si no pay
Da life yah set a way One day Jah wi meck a way Bless mi and mi friend dem And mi neighbor a suh mi pray [Chorus] [Verse 2:] Sometime mi a work Mi a wonder weh mi a work fah Why Mama pray and yo meck shi go a church fah But a suh the devil stay mi know seh him wo work fah Nah stop search cause a Jah Jah mi a search fah Jah is my light, my strength He's my guide, he will defend Mi nuh know bout you But mi know bout me Mi life rough but a Jah, Jah, mi a pree [Chorus]
