Don't ever, ever worry

Inside there's a greater you
No matter the obstacles we face in life ahead
Jah jah wont let us down
He's the one who wears the crown
Keep we standing solid on the ground
Yea yea yea yea

And we ya fight it and caan tek this nuh more
Ah ready mi ready now to settle the score
Me mother work still her finger's are sore

And I know that sea is ruff
Please don't give in
Please don't give up (no, no)
Even tho that times hard
And I know that sea is ruff

Come make we show them how we advocate
Fi equal rights an justice food ina we plate
Unuh better start now before its too late
Upon the pinnacle a play mi drum and meditate
Ana fyah burn the parasites the one's weh segregate
The little bingi man life them waan eliminate (cooyah)
Come make we show them how we illustrate
Could a never move tha mountain deh without faith
An mi nuh ramp, an mi nuh skin an mi nuh play
Ras kaneo mi nuh come around ya fi lay lay

More people hungry every day my lord
Caan find no food fi nyam, we dem call criminals
Society why the hell u nuh give a damn

Ghetto youths need opportunity essential

Even tho that times hard
And I know that sea is ruff
