Three shots upon the sky

Three bluebirds flying high

Three sons remind me why

I ended up in Crown Heights

Confidence, you know you want it all

Believe in yourself even after the fall

I wish I knew that one a long, long time

Now when I walk in the street

I got that hop in my step

Chest out, head back

Yeah, you know what I rep

I strut like a Rasta

Though I’m being chased by death

I’ll be gone till whenever

Like the song by Wyclef1

Listening to music

Always gave me vision

See me on the street

I’ll be walking to the rhythm

Focusing my face

That’s the way I’m straight living

Champion heart

From the start to the beginning

I’ve been looking for the palace

A crown and a thrown

Click clack around Krakow

Typing on my phone

Tackling my demons

But you know that by now

Hasidic reggae superstar

Tell you all how

Got it on the inside

Don’t need to wear it out

Can’t say I’m not religious

I just let go of the doubt

Right about now, hey, ey

I like old things, things that go slow

Antiques and such so you know what I know

I’m an old soul, that’s the way I like to go

I’m thankful for the bumps

Yeah, I like to feel the road

How can I defend against snakes and scorpions

Trying to be your friends

But then they cut you in the end

Feeling sleep moving in

Collapse and give up, then I start again

How can I pretend?

Confidence, you know you want it all

Believe in yourself even after the fall

I wish I knew that one a long, long time

Confidence, you know you want it all

Believe in yourself even after the fall

I wish I knew that one a long, long time

Tell you all how

Got it on the inside

Don’t need to wear it out

You say I’m not religious

I just let go of the doubt

And right about now

I’m a let go of this trout

Whispering my pleas, I ain’t gotta be loud

Throw it in the sea, throw it back to the sea

Underneath the clouds,

Yeah, you know what I mean

This is my silent scream, doing as I please

I bless you with the ease

Why these dudes judging me

Rap by Collie Buddz

Take a piece of herb

And break it up, roll it up

Take a draw to the head top

Head nice, head nice

Me a wine with da gyal

Dem a bounce to the one drop

Everything nice, ting nice

Everybody a vibes and me

Nuh wan hear no gun shot

Pure vibes, good vibes

A weh some foolishness

Some people dem a come chat

Some people a rate you

Some people dem hate you

Some people go through life

And nah care bout nobody else

You likkle bait you

Me have de confidence

Fi keep strong

Have de confidence

Fi hold on

Bun out pestilence

In all Residence

Read old testament

From how long

It’s not an easy road but we have to live it

Anything in life,

Putting all of your heart and mind and your soul

Remember the greatest gift is love

Confidence, you know you want it all

I’m gonna walk tall with the critic in my head

Won’t rest ‘till I’m small

How can I walk tall

Confidence, critic in my head now

Believe in yourself

With this critic in my head now

Won’t rest ‘till I feel small
