Say Man a General
Every ghetto yutes, man a godfadda
Man a general (general general)
Dem fi kno man a general
God of peace, Angel a Death
Every ghetto yute don't fret
From you have life
You have everyting
Dem couldn't stop my breath
Can't take my life
Jah loves me so
Can't take my soul
I'm going back for everyting and more
I'm unstoppable
Each and every day mi pray
Beg Jah say pon di earth mi want fi stay
Mi try fi be a decent man but still
When they come fi me, all I can see is getting killed
Jah bless me with a voice which never sound familiar
When you rise to the top they want to kill you
Manny wanna live my life, but my life is realler
Never copy me, these simple words will kil ya
Ghetto yutes fi have
9 Life
Nah fear nah bwoy that jus so role
9 Life
Jah have everyting under control
God of peace, Angel a Death
Every ghetto yute don't fret
From you have life
You have everyting
Dem couldn't stop my breath
Can't take my life
Jah loves me so
I'm going back for everyting and more
I'm unstoppable
Now I got life, I don't know about tomorrow
Thank you jah, mi nuh inna sorrow
In My Mind, making use of my time
shooting like an arrow
Standing still but my voice is a shadow
Through da hearts and minds of another
All is fine, Jah say mi fi shine
so me couldn't feel insecure
Nuh fear the grim reaper, cause a jah a mi keepa
No weapon that forms against me shall prosper
Yuh mad,. Yaeeeee
God of peace, Angel a Death
Every ghetto yute don't fret
From you have life
You have everyting
Dem couldn't stop my breath
Can't take my life
Jah loves me so
Can't take my soul
I'm going back for everyting and more
I'm unstoppable
In My life
Dem fi know
