[Intro:]
Life, is a journey, not a destination
Listen to Marshall address di nation
[Chorus:]
As a yute one ting weh we learn (Growin up)
If a nuh yuh business don't concern (Neva mon)
As a yute anotha ting weh we learn (Growin up)
Play wid fire then yuh must get burned (It's a must)
As a man one ting weh we know (Straight up)
Tink wah yuh put and yuh reap wah yuh sow (Then again)
As a man anotha ting weh we know (Growin up)
There will be times when tings maybe low
[Verse 1:]
This life is one big road, filled with lots of signs
Hey! But if you don't use your brain, you'll be walkin blind
Yute, listen what the elders say, experience is the key
Yo, Rome was not built in the day, that was thought to be, hey
[Chorus:]
As a yute one ting weh we learn (Growin up)
If a nuh yuh business don't concern (Neva mon)
As a yute anotha ting weh we learn (Growin up)
Play wid fire then yuh must get burned (It's a must)
As a man one ting weh we know (Straight up)
Tink wah yuh put and yuh reap wah yuh sow (Then again)
As a man anotha ting weh we know (Growin up)
There will be times when tings maybe low
[Verse 2:]
So we believe in pessimestic, but Marshall optimistic
Take it to the heights of the natural mystic
When your in this game it's not the thief take all your biscuits
In the race of life it's called the fittest of the fittest
Hey! Free now we nah fi answer to di British
Come black people tek back we riches
Stamina yuh a have to off to di finish
In di race of life yuh gonna win it, win it, win it
[Chorus:]
As a yute one ting weh we learn (Growin up)
If a nuh yuh business don't concern (Neva mon)
As a yute anotha ting weh we learn (Growin up)
Play wid fire then yuh must get burned (It's a must)
As a man one ting weh we know (Straight up)
Tink wah yuh put and yuh reap wah yuh sow (Then again)
As a man anotha ting weh we know (Growin up)
There will be times when tings maybe low
[Verse 3:]
One life is all we have to live, never give up think positive
Don't let them stray you off your way
Give thanks for life, like everyday everyday hey
[Chorus:]
As a yute one ting weh we learn (Growin up)
If a nuh yuh business don't concern (Neva mon)
As a yute anotha ting weh we learn (Growin up)
Play wid fire then yuh must get burned (It's a must)
As a man one ting weh we know (Straight up)
Tink wah yuh put and yuh reap wah yuh sow (Then again)
As a man anotha ting weh we know (Growin up)
There will be times when tings maybe low
[Verse 1]
[Chorus: until end]
