Living It Up

But I done made it up

Out of the ghetto

Believe in your dreams

Believe you and me, don't let go

We're living it up

We're having a good time, baby

I was born uptown of a ghetto dream

Now ain't life crazy?

Daddy made it out

Out of the ghetto

Believe in your dreams

Believe you and me, don't let go

We're living it up

We're having a good time, baby

I was born uptown of a ghetto dream

Now don't be lazy

Trenchtown have a grandson

Growin' up to be somebody

Gong through the ceiling, yo, mi flow phenomenally

I am the kind of thing that doesn't happen normally

Im a one in a zillion

Yo, doggy, if you want some good life finally

Perhaps change your night time habit

Come out of the old crime lobby

And benefit from your wisdom

Me a' gwaan live it up, life is better than great

Every other day, mi mash a dozen dub plate

Put in our hustle, we no sit down and wait

Nuffa pull no muscle, no, it's never too late

Mi gwaan celebrate in a rich people place

The likkle Rastaman from Trenchtown fly the gate

With food in our plate and drinks in our crate

We sing till the neighbor dem weep

But I done made it up

Out of the ghetto

Believe in your dreams

Believe you and me, don't let go

We're living it up

We're having a good time, baby

I was born uptown of a ghetto dream

Now ain't life crazy?

Daddy made it out

Out of the ghetto

Believe in your dreams

Believe you and me, don't let go

We're living it up

We're having a good time, baby

I was born uptown of a ghetto dream

Now don't be lazy

Uptown Jamaica, born and raised

On the playground is where I spent most of my days

Burning Babylon and dem dirty ways

While watching all the rich kids gone astray

Uptown Jamaica, born and raised

On the playground is where I spent most of my days

Big city life, Kingston and MoBay

And if you think mi sell out, tell them ain't no way, so

Live it up, Trenchtown to Rema

Riverton, Southside to Jungle

Sherlock Garden to Spangler's

Inland, three mile to walk to

Portmore, Seaview, Spanish Town

Nine mile, Browns Town to Flankers

Falmouth, west side, Aringil

But I done made it up

Out of the ghetto

Believe in your dreams

Believe you and me, don't let go

We're living it up

We're having a good time, baby

I was born uptown of a ghetto dream

Now ain't life crazy?

Daddy made it out

Out of the ghetto

Believe in your dreams

Believe you and me, don't let go

We're living it up

We're having a good time, baby

I was born uptown of a ghetto dream

Now don't be lazy
