Lyrics
[Chorus]
In the dark
When I lay down at night, I feel the fight
In my heart
And I was born to win before me leave this earth, I'm gonna make my mark
A soldier might die, but we never going kneel, yo
Forever play mi part
Forever brave at heart
[Verse 1]
Dem a wonder how mi live like me see death a me door (Brrr!)
Put me name inna the stars, go-getter fi sure
Me get it and going for more cah we nuh deh ya fi snore
Me deh yah so fi set a legacy like never before
Tell me daughter, tell me son seh dem will never see poor
Never seh quit, me hold it when me deh pon di floor
Deh pon me last and still a smile, and now man level the score
Dis a God a work, me see the signs, but heaven no sure
Di devil so real, and any time the blessing a pour
A that hurt dem to the core, dem want you flesh fi a bore
You see bravery, you see courage, you nuh get it a store
Yeah, me fail, but me nuh worry, cah me deh a di door
And mi knock till every fucking finger, leg fi sore
Until we lift up off the ground get the bread and go tour
Mi bredda nuh tief, me sister dem a treasure, no whore
Leggo we please, yeah, we want better fi sure
[Chorus]
Oh, in the dark
When I lay down at night, I feel the fight
In my heart
And I was born to win before me leave this earth, I'm gonna make my mark
A soldier might die, but we never going kneel, yo
Forever play mi part
Forever brave at heart
[Verse 2]
Fire inna mi eyes, the ice in a mi chest
Life a mek mommy fret, but
We a the solidest, to street we nuh inadequate
With Jah me step, all when dem try fi put powder in a mi crep
Pon di bakklefield me deh wit' blood a mix inna mi sweat
How yuh fi believe in everything but not yuh self?
No watch the light a Half Way Tree a you a stop yuh self
Me gun and me prayer, a who seh dat nuh help?
The better the victory, harder the battle get
[PreChorus]
In the dark, them think me lost
Snake in the grass, dem cyaan't glimpse mi Clarks, me walk with the Lord
Beretta pon me belly if things kick off
Eyes full a tears, but we hardly bawl
If a war fi gwaan, the soldier might die, but we never going kneel, yo
Never raise up soft, me affi play mi part
1Syde
[Chorus]
In the dark
When I lay down at night, I feel the fight
In my heart
And I was born to win before me leave this earth, I'm gonna make my mark
A soldier might die, but we never going kneel, yo, no, never going kneel
Forever brave at heart
[Verse 3]
Just fi mek it fi put food inna my yard, why, Lord?
Man out ya' like wild dog
Try every likkle ting fi get the coil broad
And every likkle ting you know them fight hard
Father God, a when you a go play my card?
(Jah know)
You keep me life guard
Show me the light, cah me nuh like fraud
Sometime me feel mi ask fi too much
Jah-Jah yah me only strength
Me nuh know how fi vent to people, yeah, they going pretend
Me going hard until me bone collapse me story end
Glory dem nuh want fi see
But dem nuh know me when the door dem never open when me clothes dem never boasy
The show dem never full up long before me get the trophy
Focus a that mi know fi watch the road and listen closely
Me grow fi murder bills and bring in mama grocery (Yeah)
[Chorus]
In the dark
When I lay down at night, I feel the pain in my heart
'Cause I was born to win before me leave this earth, I'm gonna make my mark
A soldier might die, but we never going kneel, no way
No way, forever brave at heart
[Outro]
Forever brave at heart
I was born fi win before I leave this earth
A soldier might die, but we never going kneel, no
I was born fi win before I leave
