Why are you so ungrateful? |
|
You nuh see that Jah give we life after all |
|
Check yourself before you wreck yourself |
|
Me see that Jah, Jah give we life after all |
|
Still none a dem nuh give no thanks at all |
|
Dem think dem a rise me see dem a fall |
|
Fall dem a fall, fall dem a fall |
|
How long you want to go run away? |
|
Run away from yourself |
|
You nuh see that truth ago reveal |
|
And every day you got to pray |
|
Well, that you fi go do |
|
And make your life one a the real |
|
How you fi expect love? |
|
And you still a glorifie the gun |
|
How you want clarity |
|
If acoke you nuh stop bun? |
|
Your dirty lifestyle nuh |
|
Give you no way to turn |
|
You still nuh realize |
|
That you wrong |
|
After you come out of your church |
|
You beat your baby mother down |
|
And then you tell her you're sorry |
|
But your head did full a rum |
|
She couldn't tek your excuse |
|
And your flattering tongue |
|
That's why she left you today |
|
And still a ask |
|
How long you want to go run away? |
|
Run away from yourself |
|
You nuh see that truth ago reveal |
|
And every day you got to pray |
|
Well, that you fi go do |
|
And make your life one a the real |
|
Dem say dem a the dolphin |
|
But me see dem a the shark |
|
Dem stand ina the spotlight |
|
And live in the dark |
|
Claim say dem grounded |
|
But me see dem a skylark |
|
So to me |
|
Dem can't talk |
|
In this time and this ages |
|
Man hafi be smart |
|
Think before you talk |
|
And watch the road wha' you a walk |
|
From you look ina your conscience |
|
You can't miss the mark |
|
And make a joyful sound |
|
Unto the Lord |
|
How long you want to go run away? |
|
Run away from yourself |
|
You nuh see that truth ago reveal |
|
And every day you got to pray |
|
Well, that you fi go do |
|
And make your life one a the real |
|
Nuff a dem me |
|

|
Dem hufi go back a school |
|
So a no me dem can teach |
|

|

|
Me wonder who |
|

|
Clean heart always will make it |
|
And from you see a chance ina your life |
|
You better take it nuh reject it |
