[Intro: Vybz Kartel]
Yo, wagwaan mi doops
Deh yah enuh
Mi a tell yuh seh these few years feel like an eternity

[Chorus: Wayne Marshall]
I wish that I could make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I wanna say to you
So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now

[Verse 1: Vybz Kartel]
Many many years later (later)
Many sleepless nights, many tears later (later)
What is the purpose of life, mi siddung and ask di creator (ask di creator)
When yuh take a loved one, is it for a purpose weh greater
No man is a Island like Jamaica, death is the real heartbreaker
Memba when di two of us was just a teenager (yeah)
And a raid cane field and a run from ranger
Mek a escape through di river (true)
We always seh we did a be di longest liver
Travel true Earth like Gulliver, own two bank like a river
But di life giver, ultimately di life taker, another endeavor so mi separate forever and ever
Different mother and father, but we did close like bredda
You teach mi how fi go hustle that cheddar
You teach me how fi go buss that uzi, get that pussy, plus get head-a
Bwoy days done so mi change like di weather
Strap down inna di Benz seat like leather
If you anuh mi dads mi nuh wah see another cause di whole a dem a fed-a (fed-a)
But still, dem bwoy weh mek yuh blood spill
Dem never know seh man so skill, dem dead inna di war weh cause so much mill
So di feds dem a pree me
Plus every soldier weh deh a camp wah see me
But mi nuh scared, believe me
Mi just need 3 wish from di genie
[Chorus: Wayne Marshall]
I wish that I could make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I wanna say to you
So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now

[Verse 2: Vybz Kartel]
Every year, flowers at di grave
Pack a cigarette, higrade weh mi save
New wreath put up, grass get shave
Bawling again, mi nuh know fi behave
Moet haffi throw pon di ground anytime me a rave cause sake a you mi life save
Mi look into life through Versace shades
Listen to mi ears and give praise many many days
Weh day, mi see yuh daughter
She a go a school, mi a go a Edgewater
See har a read Shakespeare, seh she wah be a author
Mi seh she [?]
Ask her if she miss you, she seh "everyday"
She seh me? Mi seh "with braughta"
Mi couldn't help but turn weh mi face cause mi eye start swell wid pear eye water

[Chorus: Wayne Marshall]
I wish that I could make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I wanna say to you
So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now
[Outro: Wayne Marshall]
Wish that I could make you turn around
