I Know Better

(album: The System - 2012)

Me coulda have gun 'pon waist
Boy diss and me kick off him face
Me coulda run de place, done de place
No boy couldn't violate
Me coulda have crazy machine
Shane, me coulda lock down the scheme
But me choose fi keep it clean

'Cause I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best
Think say dem bad, dem no hear nuttin yet
I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best, dem no hear nuttin yet

Me could have the ting dem mile up
Have de ting dem pile up
Boy violate and all him life get soil up
Who dem a style up a come a try wild up
A nuff boy life coulda get spoil up, yes
Diss me and my dogs would be barking
You know sey me wouldn't inna no talking
Him could a big like hulk
Me still a step to him and anything, a anything

But I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best
Think say dem bad, dem no hear nuttin yet
I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best, dem no hear nuttin yet, no

'Memba we come from the place dem
Where we coulda rise and buss it too
But me go to too much funeral go see me friends dem
Lay down lifeless inna coffin
so me look inna myself and realize
Say me haffi street wise 'cause me waan' survive
Me hear music calling, there was no stalling
That's why me a sing

I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best
Think say dem bad, dem no hear nuttin yet
I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best, dem no hear nuttin yet

Every time me think 'bout me mother, whoa
And the promise weh me make to her
Me know me can't break that
And when me think 'bout me sisters and me brothers, yeah
Me one life me can't waste that

'Cause I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best
Hear say dem bad, dem no hear nuttin yet
I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best, dem no hear nuttin yet

I know better, I know better
All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best
Gwaan like dem bad, dem no hear nuttin yet

All dem a gwaan like dem hot like pepper
I know best, I know best, dem no hear nuttin yet, no

No, seh dem no hear nuttin yet, no
Ooh, ooh, ooh
And you see all dem a gwaan
You see all dem a gwaan
I know better, I know better, I know better, ooh, yeah

Me coulda have gun 'pon waist
Boy diss and me kick off him face
Me coulda run de place
No boy couldn't violate
Me coulda have crazy machine
Shane, me coulda lock down the scheme
But me choose fi keep it clean
