Di first thing ah going tell yuh
Is about mi children days
Bear with me yuh heh!
No mek up yuh face.
Ah rememba one time
Ah buck mi foot and fall
Nobody watching so ah jump up fast and brush it off.
Dis a shunt bodder tell, yet another day, mid family and friends
Ah drop again, this time ah cry the living eye water.
Ah learn dis, and ah really believe that,
A weak man, must get strong on e own, e must help e own self.
Man is what him wan be, and just how e think e is,
and if e keep on thinking so same we e going stay.
Man wan improve e status, but e no want improve e self
E no tek care ah e body nor e no guard e mind.
E believe everything e want e must get, but we going find out that:
Man no attract what e want, but what im is, and e no get what e wish fa
But what e deserve.
When one man see another man doing good, e does seh:
Look on luck!
Cos him no see the amount a times
That one fail, fall down, get back up, and brush off di brut licks
E no see nutten, and e kyan even bodder try do that.
But e trying to live above e means
E putting e hat higher that e head and that mek him ignorant,
Because e still no understand the process;
That di failure to accomplish goals is only one of plenty kina ways
Fa gain strenght and character, until e wake up the wise master ah e soul
E going get some weh.
Gwan so siddun, wake up the wise master ah yuh soul!
