Tides

Yo si dah year it affi spell nuff sense

Nuff waste people ago start rub bench

From a gyal bruck the bush nah fuck dem

God kill mi if mi nuh cut off fuck up friends

Never know mi woulda live fi buy a apartment cash

Stop pay rent an make di pagons chat

Drop two raptor last month one crash

Mia sing fidi youths weh make it out ah swamp

Government nuh like see ghetto youths wid stock

Send strap block di don send them back

Try gi yuh waste-man friend, an yo son dem dat

If a never fi music, sweep stakes and trap

Mi woulda neva be okay

We would be struggling most days

Still am riding out the tides

Bush nah succumb to cocaine

Mount a time yo go fail

Yah fi know fi hold faith

Still am riding out the tides

Bush nah succumb to cocaine

From one bed room with ten a wi

To a castle in the hills of Beverly

A make moves weh some ghetto youths never see

Man a icon well alive inna mi legacy

Poverty yuh wasn't part a wish list

Start put on weight like mi sickly

Addi affi mix up roots widi whisky

Make a toast to life but mi nuh tipsy

Invest in me kids teky give wish bitch

Like Marlon Jaro Mi affi kept rich

These Dolls dilute just a fix fix

Prefect image but the soul need fixing

Still she gonna be okay

Though she struggling most days

Still am riding out the tides

Bush nah succumb to cocaine

Mount a time yo go fail

Yah fi know fi hold faith

Still am riding out the tides

Bush nah succumb to cocaine

Introverted fi avoid the antic

Lose good friends over misunderstanding

Worst money involve seems like plan thing

Who cried wolf act like them nuh have sins

Some switch fia check or a transcript

Make man put them to sleep under blanket

Mi a entourage a make a transit

Ask Jah who real place the place skanty

True ones in mi life mi can hand pick

Cyaa feed the dawgs now the dawgs get antsy

If life is journey this distance Bumbo claat to long fia donkey

Still i would be okay

Though am struggling most days

Still am riding out the tides

Bush nah succumb to cocaine

Mount a time yo go fail

Yah fi know fi hold faith

Still am riding out the tides

Bush nah succumb to cocaine

Cooooo caine eeeeeeen
