Shane, how she look so?
Dark glasses, a nuh she
And how she a walk so?
Yuh know seh mi a go ask har
Hey there, what's wrong woman
Looks like your feeling down inside
He says he loves you
but him a beat you,
when him feel like
And its not right
A weh him really feel like?
How him fi beat beat yuh
Den waan tek yuh clothes off

Di strength weh him a tek beat
tek it go fight war
Face too pretty fi a wear scar
He'll never get to Zion if him a break yuh heart
Cut it off, let it go
Start anew
Cut it off,
And find someone who love you, girl
Cut it off, life too short
Cut it off, nuh fraid to start over
Cut it off, a so how the healing start
You know its not right
Whole heap of fuss and fight
Him waan thump you inna yuh eye mum
It a raw waan lie down
You know its not right
Inna di most High sight
And there is nothing domestic about it
My girl a betta yuh low it
How him fi beat beat yuh
Den waan tek yuh clothes off
Abuse and mistreat yuh
Den later on seduce yuh
Mek him know him nah get nuh loving
if a so den star
Di strength weh him a tek beat
tek it go fight war
Face too pretty fi a wear scar
He'll never get to Zion if him a break yuh heart
You've got to love yourself
But you love someone
Never you hurt your flesh in the name of love, nooo(2x)
How him fi beat beat yuh
Den waan tek yuh clothes off
Abuse and mistreat yuh
Den later on seduce yuh
Mek him know him nah get nuh loving
if a so den star
Di strength weh him a tek beat
tek it go fight war
Face too pretty fi a wear scar
He'll never get to Zion if him a break yuh heart
Its not right, cho
Whole heap of fuss and fight,
Inna di most high sight
And there's nothing domestic about it
How him fi beat beat yuh
Den waan tek yuh clothes off
Abuse and mistreat yuh
Den later on seduce yuh
Mek him know him nah get nuh loving
if a so den star
Di strength weh him a tek beat
tek it go fight war
Face too pretty fi a wear scar
He'll never get to Zion if him a break yuh heart
