[Verse 1:]
Nuh watch the Rolex paw mi hand
Mi gold chain weh cost ten grand US
Nuh badmind Sunshine fi the van
Wi haffi work hard like any other man
Nuh hate Vendetta fi the power
Dawg wi have the dame 24 hour
From modern days until now a
Mi a dream big, a same thing you fi do
[Chorus:]
Haffi meck it da year yah
Mi seh meck it da year yah
Haffi meck it mi swear a
Meck it da year yah
Now a the time a nuh hater
Meck the supn weh come like a paper
Meck it da year yah
Haffi meck it da year yah
Meck it da year yah
Da year yah
Haffi meck it da year yah
Meck the supn weh come like a paper
[Verse 2:]
Now mi want it a nuh later
Star and Observer a joke paper
Mama T seh him want grater
No cake, but more food in a plate
And while the sun a shine
Ghetto youth fi live large watch da weight yah
Waan gi mi mother a million fi go waste
Mi a pree less badness fi da year yah
But mi pocket long fi see Sunday face
Alka tell mi seh life don't fair
A nuh who work the hardest
A who work the smartest win the race
[Chorus]
