An hold a plane ticket and go chill over Turks
Jamaica get screw, tru greed an glutton
Mek whole heap a money and sen in our own
Rah, rah, rah, rah
Mi say Mickey
Wi get di ting dem, dem outta luck now
This a survival story
'Cuz a we a mek mama a nyaam fish an' mutton, ehh
This is my story
Rah, rah, rah, rah
We run, Fatta get him knee blown
Wi get di ting dem, so dem haffi rate wi
Cau we a tek it to them wicked of lately
Mi squeeze seven and the whole a dem a duck now
Rah, rah, rah, rah
An mek him likkle bredda dem kick up Jerome
Ova dehso mek mi tell unnu some'in
An mi never like bathe and my hair never comb
When me and mama bed was a big piece a foam
So you know the next day mama pot overload
Politics manipulate and press yutes button
Yesterday Mickey call me pan mi phone
When me come back a still inna the hole me a lurk
An mi best friend Richie get, two inna him dome
But we did have a one pop wey make outta board
I remember those days when informer dirks
Mi squeeze seven and the whole a dem a duck now
Wi have whole heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk now
I remember those days when hell was my home
An rumor have it sey the chiney man have a sword
Rah, rah, rah, rah
Mi squeeze seven and the whole a dem a duck now
Cau we a tek it to them wicked of lately
But, Mickey go to foreign and go tun Al Capone
I remember when we visit dem wid pure big stone
Wi get di ting dem, dem outta luck now
I remember when Danny dem tek me snow cone
Wi get di ting dem, so dem haffi rate wi
Now a we a lock the city and, that is well known
I remember so the avenue tun inna warzone
But we rich now ,so dem caan tell man notin
Anytime mi fly down him a get bout dozen 'cause
Cau we a tek it to them wicked of lately
Wi get di ting dem, so dem haffi rate wi
Hey
When mama gone a work me go street, go roam
True ghetto story
Wi have whole heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk now
Publisher: EMI MUSIC PUB. LTD.
An dump the ballot box pan Tivoli outskirts
Get one inna him face and me nuh get nuh perks
Wi have whole heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk now
And now the whole community a live greatly
An mi here sey TD deh dey but him sey he wasn't
That a long before Laing dem and even Bigga Ford
Rah, rah, rah, rah
And now the whole community a live greatly
And the bigger heads dem are a couple of jerks
When a Trinity and Tony Hewitt dem a run road
Tru mi dey a foreign now a guy kill me cousin
I remember when we skip the poll clerks
When Adams dem a Corporal nuh know the road code
An' Mickey madda fly him out, cau she get a loan
'Cause a dem a mek di money, when a wi mash di works
Wi get di ting dem, dem outta luck now
I remember bout '80, Jamaica explode
Real ghetto story
An the boy Danny pop out something weh full chromeI remember when
Rah, rah, rah, rah
I remember when we rob the chiney shop down the road
