Lyrics

Intro
Yeah…
Zinc fence, badmind breeze…
Some tings yuh learn too early, yuh hear mi?
Real ghetto story…
[Verse 1]
Likkle youth pon di lane, no guidance
Ghetto raise mi fast, no compliance
Mind still pure, body nuh ready
Curiosity mek di heart unsteady
Next door gyal older than mi age
Call mi in, seh “mek wi play”
Mi tink a joke, mi tink a game
Didn’t know seh life cross line dat day
Mi neva hit puberty yet
Still green, still wet
Didn’t know di rules dem break
Mi just move how curiosity tek
[Pre-Chorus]
Ghetto teach yuh quick, no warning
Innocence fade by morning
Some tings sweet till dem turn pressure
Smile hide pain under pleasure
[Chorus]
Too early! — ghetto mek mi see tings
Too early! — grow up before mi wings
Curious youth, mi neva know betta
Some lessons cut deep inna di ghetto
Too early! — life hit mi fast
Too early! — some memories nah pass
Ghetto rough, yeah di truth dem wild
Some tings happen when yuh just a child
[Verse 2]
First time feel nice, mi cyaan lie
Youth mind confuse, feelings high
Then it turn routine, turn command
Every day pressure, heavy pon mi hand
From curiosity to control
Mi spirit start feel small
Didn’t have language fi call it wrong
Mi just try stay strong
No talk bout it, hush hush code
Inna di ghetto, silence mode
Pain hide under laugh an joke
Carry weight weh mi neva spoke
[Pre-Chorus]
Some scars invisible
Some wounds physical
Mi never blame di youth mi be
Mi blame di line mi never see
[Chorus]
Too early! — ghetto mek mi see tings
Too early! — grow up before mi wings
Curious youth, mi neva know betta
Some lessons cut deep inna di ghetto
Too early! — life hit mi fast
Too early! — some memories nah pass
Ghetto rough, yeah di truth dem wild
Some tings happen when yuh just a child
Bridge
Mi nah glorify, mi nah hype
Mi just talk truth pon di mic
If yuh feel dis, yuh nuh alone
Nuff youth carry tings dem never known
Strength a come from calling it name
Healing start when yuh drop di shame
From survival to control
Mi take back mi soul
[Final Chorus]
Too early! Too early! — hear mi shout
Ghetto show mi life inside out
But mi still rise, mi still stand
Turn dark days into wiser man
Too early! Too early! — still mi strong
Turn mi pain into fire song
Ghetto test mi from mi a child
But it neva mash mi—mi still wild
[Outro]
Yeah…
Hard life, real life…
Ghetto youth still survive…
Too early… but mi still here.
