Текст песни Overcome - Wayne Marshall

True, true, true, true, true, true
True, true, true, true, true, true, true, true

Time's well hard and they are today
But if you don't work then you won't get paid
Many obstacles come along the way
Overcome, youths, overcome

Many are called but the chosen few
Nothing in this world that you can do
If you work hard then you will pull through
Overcome, overcome

The reason that we call that one ya overcome
Because some likkle youths moving, oh, so dumb
Sit down hardly nothing and they want things come
And they nuh pressure people but they want income

Young baby, father can't feed him son
And any girl he done say he needs his gun
Get gun take gun rob Mr. Chung
Five innocent people get licked down 'cause

Time's well hard and they are today
But if you don't work then you won't get paid
Many obstacles come along the way
Overcome, youths, overcome

Many are called but the chosen few
Nothing in this world that you can't do
Work hard for your dream and they will come true
Overcome, overcome

Everyday yuh get up, living like a bum
But if yuh waan good, remember you nose haffi go run
Get up, brush up, take yourself out of the slum
And go find a trade and make something fun

Don't drown your stress in a smoke or rum
So much 'dro they would put you underground
Set up buss all likkle food and likkle bun
So when the week done you nuh fi beg nobody none

Time's well hard and they are today
But if you don't work then you won't get paid
Many obstacles come along the way
Overcome, youths, overcome

Many are called but the chosen few
Nothing in this world that you can't do
If you work hard then you will pull through
Overcome, overcome

The reason that we call that one ya overcome
Because some likkle youths moving, oh, so dumb
Sit down hardly nothing and they want things come
And they nuh pressure people but they want income

Young baby, father can't feed him son
And any girl he done say he needs his gun
Get gun take gun rob Mr. Chung
Five innocent people get licked down

Time's well hard and they are today
But if you don't work then you won't get paid
Many obstacles come along the way
Overcome, overcome

Many are called but the chosen few
If you work hard then you will pull through
Nothin' in this this world that you can't do
If you overcome, if you overcome

Time's well hard and they are today
But if you don't work then you won't get paid
Many obstacles come along the way
Overcome, overcome

Many are called but the chosen few
Nothing in this world that you can't do
If you work hard then your dreams come true
Overcome, overcome

Everyday yuh get up, living like a bum
But if yuh waan good, remember you nose haffi go run
Get up, brush up, take yourself out of the slum
And go find a trade and make something fun

Don't drown your stress in a smoke or rum
So much 'dro they would put you underground
Set up buss all likkle food and likkle bun
And when the week done

Days well hard and they are today
But if you don't work then you won't get paid
Many obstacles come along the way
Overcome, youths, overcome

Many are called but the chosen few
Don't make me tell you what you cannot do
If you work hard then your dreams come true
Overcome, you have to overcome

Overcome, yeah, overcome
