Went away to a far far land
Spend some time in New York
Most of my time inna England
No welcome back to my bornland, yeah
Come from England to make some vibes
Just to keep ma fans alive
But the vibes they're teaching
Me that don't right in my book, no
Yes, the vibes they're teaching me
That don't right in my book like
No put I dey nah put dem no weh hey
No put I dey lawd a wey dem a seh
Sex an guns jus keep dem to de ground
Horse tonic a mek di girl dem panick
Teach di youths dem how to live
Teach di youths dem how to survive
Hold your corner and save your life
And that's no jive
Seh di youths dem mek a living by selling some stars
Gots to make a living wiping down cars
Can't you see the times you're living in?
The people are suffering
No teach me nothing, just teach me something
No teach me nothing, just teach me something
Hold your corner, save your life and that's no jive
My heart, my poor little heart
My heart cries to see the youth
No put I dey nah put dem no weh hey
No put I dey lawd a wey dem a seh
Sex an guns jus keep dem to de ground
Horse tonic a mek di girl dem panick
Teach di youths dem how to live
Teach di youths dem how to survive
Hold your corner and save your life
And that's no jive
