[Verse 1]
Neva tell myself seh mi ah guh feel
Poverty did lock me up, but now mi get a bill
Songs ah play and fans ah hear
Dem woulda mad me long time if dem catch mi ganja tail
A trod it long time from shoes, buss and pants a tear
Did a plan fi sell drugs, dawg, but betta plans appear
Yo, Stanley, long time mi nuh see Sandra tears
A smilin' face now

[Chorus]
Man ah gwaan do di work
'Cause my past true di worst
Coulda gone inna hearse
Dawg, mi ah humble miself and read psalms every verse
Nah I put mi palm inna purse
Man ah gwaan do di work
Weh trouble deh nuh ask mi fi search
Use to lock corner wid tall thing a burst
Mommy nuh know weh me gone when she deh church
Buck up inna police artiste affi splurt, dawg

[Verse 2]
But mi wise up now
Rollout inna script mi nuh join up now
Songs dem a spread like virus
Dem a wonder if mi sign up
Tell badmind them time up now
Kez from we link Kenny when we drive uptown
Mi see every balloon a try buss now
Chester seh sing wid yuh voice don’t shout
Now every Killa a mi side mus proud
[Chorus]
Man ah gwaan do di work
'Cause my past true di worst
Coulda gone inna hearse
Dawg, mi ah humble miself and read psalms every verse
Nah I put mi palm inna purse
Man ah gwaan do di work
Weh trouble deh nuh ask mi fi search
Use to lock corner wid tall thing a burst
Mommy nuh know weh me gone when she deh church
Buck up inna police artiste affi splurt, dawg

[Verse 3]
Lucky ting seh mi nuh give up yet
Lucky ting seh me neva upset
When dem seh try again
Mi go try again inna studio and buss sweat
Now mi a graduate from bruk days
Mommy house start fi go upstairs
Dem seh try again
Mi go try again and now man buss weh

[Verse 1]
Neva tell myself seh mi ah guh feel
Poverty did lock me up, but now mi get a bill
Songs ah play' & fans ah here
Them woulda mad me long time if dem catch mi ganja tail
A trod it long time from shoes buss and pants a tear
Did a plan fi sell drugs, dawg, but betta plans appear
Yo, Stanley, long time mi nuh see Sandra tears
A smilin' face now
[Chorus]
Man ah gwaan do di work
'Cause my past true di worst
Coulda gone inna hearse
Dawg, mi ah humble miself and read psalms every verse
Nah I put mi palm inna purse
Man ah gwaan do di work
Weh trouble deh nuh ask mi fi search
Use to lock corner wid tall thing a burst
Mommy nuh know weh me gone when she deh church
Buck up inna police artiste affi splurt, dawg
