Lyrics

But daddy made it out Out of the ghetto Believe in your dreams Believe you and me, don't let go We're living it up We're having a good time, baby I was born uptown of the ghetto dream Now ain't life crazy? Daddy made it out Out of the ghetto Believe in your dreams Believe you and me, don't let go We're living it up We're having a good time, baby I was born uptown of the ghetto dream Now don't be lazy Trenchtown have a grandson Growin' up to be somebody Gong to the Zilla, yo, me flow phenomenally I am the kind of thing that doesn't happen normally I'm a one in a zillion Yo, dawg, if you want some good life finally Perhaps change your night time hobby Come out of the old crime lobby And benefit from your wisdom Me ah gwan live it up, life is better than great Every other day mi voice a dozen dub plate Put in our hustle, we no sidung and wait Tough up unnu muscle, no it's never too late Fi gwaan celebrate in a rich people place Di likkle rastaman from Trenchtown find di gate With food in our plate and drinks in our crate We sing 'til da neighbour dem wake But daddy made it out Out of the ghetto Believe in your dreams Believe you and me, don't let go We're living it up We're having a good time, baby I was born uptown of the ghetto dream Now ain't life crazy? Daddy made it out Out of the ghetto Believe in your dreams Believe you and me, don't let go We're living it up We're having a good time, baby I was born uptown of the ghetto dream Now don't be lazy Uptown Jamaica born and raised On the playground is where I spend most of my days Burning Babylon and dem dirty ways While watchin' all the rich kids gone astray Uptown Jamaica born and raised On the playground is where I spend most of my days Big city life Kingston and Mobay And if you think me sell out Tell dem ain't no way So, live it up Trenchtown to Rema Riverton, Southside to Jungle Sherlock, Garden to Spanglers Payneland, Three Mile to Backto Portmore, Seaview, Spanish Town Nine Mile, Brownstown to Flankers Falmouth, Westside, Orange Hill But daddy made it out Out of the ghetto Believe in your dreams Believe you and me, don't let go We're living it up We're having a good time, baby I was born uptown of the ghetto dream Now ain't life crazy? Daddy made it out Out of the ghetto Believe in your dreams Believe you and me, don't let go We're living it up We're having a good time, baby I was born uptown of the ghetto dream Now don't be lazy
