In My Eyes

An' you know a wah day a likkle thing gwaan
One Motion
Haffi tek we miself
Kurrent a kick enuh
Still living
A Masicka enuh

Other day kick back 'pon the endz
And a smoke and a chill
Mi an' mi friend dem a par
Highgrade spliff a roll up
Hennessy a drink gyal deh deh
Cah mi an' mi friend dem a star
Money we a med enuh we nah medi war
Dem a penni mi, tell me enemy say stay far
Fresh like water inna the reservoir
Gyal waan gi' mi sex, no haffi beg her, anyway
Mi see a unknown car
Roll up full a man like dung a Calabar
Window wind down, big SLR
Jump cross the fence, mi chest get a scar
Then mi hear blow smaddy head lef' a tar
Dip fi mi waist a only three star
Friend dem a fall like leaf out a the tree, star
Badman dem ya or police officer, eeh

That night, me seh mi life flash in front mi eyes
Oh God, Mr. Death gi' we a surprise
This a no song, this a real life
Mi no waan dead, help me please, Christ

That night, me life flash in front mi eyes
Mr. Death gi' we a surprise
Mi no waan dead, help me please, Christ
This a no song, this a real life

Fi the whole night man a sight gunshot
So me tek weh miself and sight one cop
Him say young man stop, Offcier you mad?
Mr. Death just gi' mi eye contact
But the bwoy dem weh kill off mi friend
Haffi dead back and mi swear mi life 'pon that
Mi circle mi yard and rise on Glock forward
Back bleach whole night and watch
Jah know, mi grieve whole night and frass
Look how me a plan fi put mi life 'pon gas
And move forward
War get hot, like the fire weh you put 'pon pot
Right now head mad, head no deh yah
Like mi hooked 'pon crack
Inna the grave mi haffi put one back
Siren a come, mi 'memba mi son
And start run like athlete put 'pon track
Jah know

That night, me seh mi life flash in front mi eyes
Oh God, Mr. Death gi' we a surprise
This a no song, this a real life
Mi no waan dead, help me please, Christ

That night, me life flash in front mi eyes
Mr. Death gi' we a surprise
Mi no waan dead, help me please, Christ
This a no song, this a real life
