7
I remember those days when hell was my home

When Me and Mama bed was a big piece a foam

An mi never like bathe and my hair never comb

30
And now the whole community can live greatly
31
Rah, rah, rah, rah
32
I remember those days when we was dead broke an
33
I could barely find a dolla for a token
34
Hop in the train to just get where I'm going
35
Hobos after me, runnin' like I'm smokin'
36
Remember those days when I went to bed hungry
37
All I ever ate was white rice and honey
38
Big dreams in my head empty my tummy
39
Might crack a smile but ain't nothin' funny
40
I remember playin' over needles in the streets
41
Everywhere I go a man want some part of me
42
Dirty Dirty hookas and hoes on 11th avenue
43
Sellin' bodies for doh
44
Remember cryin' sayin' that will never be me
45
Gonna make it someday gonna be somebody
46
Say mommy don탢??t worry cause its just u and me
47
One day we will get out of this misery (hey!)
48
We get di ting dem, dem outta luck now

Mi squeeze seven and the whole a dem a duck now
50
We have whole heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk no
51
Rah, rah, rah, rah

54
