Gold spoon inna mouth, me never get none More time nothing to eat, not even bread crumb Drink the water from my eye when it a run down Quench my emotions
Confuse, so me tek up all a big gun Robbing people for needs that is not fun Babylon jailhouse, think me life done Five years detention
Jah will never give you more than you can bear It's so obvious and it's crystal clear now Jah will never leave I lonely He'll take me through the ruffest times
I will trust in the almighty, He will help me to get by Though the system is all messed up My meditation is very high, Jah will never leave I lonely He'll take me through the ruffest times
Look a work all now me no get none Me girl a breed and time it a come down No money, no cash, not a loan sum Goose over cook and burn
Hypocrites, backbiters, them all come Gun shot, turf war, mek me all run Loud noise, siren, dirty cops come Things take a different turn
Jah will never give you more than you can bear It's so obvious and it's crystal clear now Jah will never leave I lonely He'll take me through the ruffest times
