[Intro]
Yo, Notnice
[Bridge]
Nuff of dem waan see me fail
Waan see me reach inna jail
Tell me how my mother ago feel when she see her son behind rail
And she know she no get the house, mi daughter no get the land
Furthermore, me a walk from birth, so right now me need one van
[Chorus]
Me keep hustling
Night and day I'm working hard, so I must get paid
Never stop hustling fi my mommy
Hold mi medz daily
And me never stray
[Verse 1]
Me see it clear dem a try fi set me up
Waan policeman use strap wet me up
Carry mi name a the station loud and clear
Vex true Teacha make me get the buss
Without fear, me used to take the bus
None of dem ever try fi make 'me', 'us'
See me a hustling fi mi tings and I try take mine...
Tell me why black man so envious?
Me nah give up, 'cause dem soon give up
When dem see all one dozen house build up
And mi dawgs dem bark
If a man try walk, dem done know say everything build up
Notnice
[Bridge]
Mi mother no get the house, mi daughter no get the land
Furthermore, me a walk from birth, so right now me need one van
[Chorus]
Me keep hustling
Night and day I'm working hard, so I must get paid
Never stop hustling fi my mommy
Hold mi medz daily
And me never stray
[Verse 2]
So, if a bag juice fi sell
We sell that
If an ol' iron fi well
We well that
Family haffi get whole of bread
Me can't afford fi make mother eat the bread back
Have mi ting fi protect my head back
Money haffi make, every youth we a tell that
Nah make Babylon capture mi mind
And next ting me end up down a cell block
[Bridge]
'Cause mi mother no get the house, mi daughter no get the land
Furthermore, me a walk from birth, so right now me need one van
[Chorus]
Me keep hustling
Night and day I'm working hard, so I must get paid
Never stop hustling fi my mommy
Hold mi medz daily
And me never stray
[Bridge]
Nuff of dem waan see me fail
Waan see me reach inna jail
Tell me how my mother ago feel when she see her son behind rail
And she know she no get the house, mi daughter no get the land
Furthermore, me a walk from birth, so right now me need one van
[Outro]
Me keep hustling
Night and day...
