Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Big nose likkle youth pon Cambridge Street
Franklyn Town, Kingston 16
Hot sun beat pon mi bare feet
Mama prayer keep mi heart complete
No father figure inna mi sight
Just one strong woman day an night
Raise three pickney, hold di line
Turn struggle into discipline
Zinc fence whisper when rain ah fall
Hard times never make we small
She mek sure say we stand tall
Even when di cupboard wall to wall
Candle light and exercise book
Still learn more than dem ever could
From di ghetto where di future shook
Mama teach mi how fi look
[Pre-Chorus]
Mama seh, “Son, mind yuh name
Road get dark but yuh must remain”
Every step, mi feel di strain
But mi never lose mi brain
[Chorus] (Catchy / Chant)
Rocman! — call mi name yah now
Rocman! — ghetto youth stand proud
Through poverty mi still know myself
Never sell mi soul, never lose mi self
Rocman! — Jamaica rough but sweet
Rocman! — never stray cross wrong street
Every day not promised, still mi plan
Concrete jungle cyaan break Rocman
[Verse 2]
Sirens sing likkle lullaby
Wrong road smile when yuh pass dem by
Fast money flash in yuh eye
But too much youth did testify
Mi choose fi wait over rush
Choose clean hands over hush
See too many fade to dust
Mi nah follow crowd, mi trust
Exciting days, dangerous nights
Football dream an street side fights
Laugh wid fren dem, no appetite
Still full a hope an future sight
From yard life mi carry truth
Survivor stamp pon mi youth
Kingston raise mi wid di proof
Pressure mek diamond, no excuse
[Pre-Chorus]
From Cambridge Street mi tek mi stand
Faith in mi heart, work in mi hand
If mi reach, understand
A Mama strength build di man
[Chorus]
Rocman! — call mi name yah now
Rocman! — ghetto youth stand proud
Through poverty mi still know myself
Never sell mi soul, never lose mi self
Rocman! — Jamaica rough but sweet
Rocman! — never stray cross wrong street
Every day not promised, still mi plan
Concrete jungle cyaan break Rocman
[Bridge]
All hail di queen weh never fold
Carry whole house pon her soul
Three youth grow without a throne
Still she rule wid love alone
Every sacrifice mi know
Every tear she never show
If mi glow, fi har light glow
Mama—this a yuh song
[Final Chorus]
Rocman! Rocman! — hear di people call
From Franklyn Town to America
Jamaica tough but it build mi strong
Mi never lost mi way, mi carry on
Rocman! Rocman! — still mi stand
Concrete jungle couldn’t mash up di man
Every day not promised—but mi can
Give thanks say Rocman make it out, Jah plan
[Outro]
Big nose youth wid a lion heart
From Cambridge Street mi start
Give thanks fi di pain an scars
Dem turn mi story into stars
