Songtexte My Story - I-Octane

Respect to all who wipe car glass
All when summer hype and pass
Me love the youths, me nah hide and talk
A whole heap a road dem walk
Respect to all who sell bag juice
Who sell it fi help dem youths
A whole heap a hell dem go through
Hear me nuh frass

Man a suffer too long
Yeah, man a suffer too long
Live inna the ghetto too long
Man a suffer too lo-o-ong
Me can't even give mi mother two grand
Man a suffer too long
Yeah, man a suffer too long
Live inna the ghetto too long
Man a suffer too lo-o-ong
Hear me nuh frass, man a suffer too long

My life it nuh easy out deh
When the system a beat we out deh
How you fi tell the people easy out deh?
Lord God a pure evil out deh
Hey Frass, dem nuh care 'bout the kids weh we get
'Cause when rain a fall, through the sink me a wet
Sending me water, mi live fi regret
And sit deh, me nuh get nothing fi mi sweat
Hey tax man gone with the price, yeah
Dem left flour, but dem gone with the rice
Dem left a drink, but dem gone with the ice
So pon mi two knees me a call fi mi Christ, woii

Man a suffer too long
Yeah, man a suffer too long
Live inna the ghetto too long
Man a suffer too lo-o-ong
Me can't even give mi mother two grand
Man a suffer too long
Yeah, man a suffer too long
Live inna the ghetto too long
Man a suffer too lo-o-ong
Hear me nuh frass

Young stash man, not even piece of cheese fi the child bun
Likkle Cerise Thea when it boil down
A whole heap of water mi eye run
But me still nah go take 'way anuh my one
Hey mama say, it's cheaper fi live more than die young
'Cause if you die right now, she can't buy rum
But we still a hold the pressure, nah try gun
Just a wait 'til we time come

Respect to all who wipe car glass
All when summer hype and pass
Me love the youths, me nah hide and talk
A whole heap a road dem walk
Respect to all who sell bag juice
Who sell it fi help dem youths
A whole heap a hell dem go through
Hear me nuh frass

Man a suffer too long
Yeah, man a suffer too long
Live inna the ghetto too long
Man a suffer too lo-o-ong
Me can't even give mi mother two grand
Man a suffer too long
Yeah, man a suffer too long
Live inna the ghetto too long
Man a suffer too lo-o-ong
Hear me nuh frass, man a suffer too long

Man a suffer too long
Yeah, man a suffer too long
Live inna the ghetto too long
Man a suffer too lo-o-ong
Me can't even give mi mother two grand
Man a suffer too long
Yeah, man a suffer too long
Live inna the ghetto too long
Man a suffer too lo-o-ong
Hear me nuh frass, man a suffer too long
