Don't cry, no, little youth, don't cry
Just you realize
Those good things in life, you want to achieve will soon
Come in time
Don't get out of your mind, goin' around doing crimes
You won't survive
Pray to the almighty God, I say
And he will pave your way
Live conscious and look within yourself
Youth man, hear what I say
And remember (scatting)
And remember (scatting) (hey!)
Palavin', palavin', palavin', palavin' (hey!)
Some keep starving, keep starving, keep starving (hey!)
While some of them keep balling, keep balling (hey!)
An' dem parents, dem calling
While some of them palaving (hey!)
While some of them are not starving
Starving, and starving, and starving (hey!)
Palaving, palaving (hey!)
Don't cry, no, little youth, don't cry
Just you realize
Those good things in life, you want to achieve will soon
Come in time
Don't get out of your mind, goin' around doing crimes
You won't survive
Pray to the almighty God, I say
And he will pave your way
Live conscious and look within yourself
Youth man, hear what I say
And remember (scatting)
And remember (scatting) (hey!)
Palavin', palavin', palavin', palavin'
Some starvin', some starvin', some starvin', I say
Some ballin', some ballin', some ballin', I say
While some a dem keep calling
