Typed by: AZ Lyrics

[Intro]
Psalms 127 Selah
Except di lawd build di house, dey live in vain dat build it
Except di lawd keep di city, di watchmen watch it, but in vain
Thank yuh, its just another day, selah, its just another day.,,

[Chorus 1]
Thank yuh jah mi wake up dis morning
Roll out di herbs before me start yawning
Tun round bus a kiss pon mi dawlin
Tell har seh honey mi ah touch inna di steet

In di street mi see poor people bawlin
Nuff juvenile nuh even nyam from morning
Weh di black woman future me aks him
Weh di system a do fi she? No

[Verse]
Big up di gyal dem weh fight it alone an ah raise two three pickney pon dem own
Weh di man deh? no man know dey home, Babylon have dem inna jail
Big up di juvenile dem inna di street
We a seh dem haffi make it an nah touch di chrome
Dem no waan wi fi claim our own, but Africa nah found nuf hole inna road
Ghetto youth we go on and on, Babylon waan wi gone
Hungry from morning til night come, dem waan wi fi live our life so
Dem ah wonder if di youth dem a go stop, no
A wonder if di ghetto a go drop, no
Dem a wonder if wi catch inna di trap, no
A wonder if jah tun him back. no

[Chorus 2]
Thank yuh jah mi wake up dis morning
Got up an smile out when mi see it stormin
Mi vision seh better days coming every day dat mi a pree
Mi nuh see nuh job nah no free education weh dem did promise
None ah dem never give way nothing
It's like ghetto youths lost to di system every day dat mi a pree, no

[Verse]
Big up di gyal dem weh fight it alone an ah raise two three pickney pon dem own
Weh di man deh? no man know dey home, Babylon have dem inna jail
Big up di juvenile dem inna di street
We a seh dem haffi make it an nah touch di chrome
Dem no waan wi fi claim our own, but Africa nah found nuf hole inna road
Ghetto youth we go on and on, Babylon waan wi gone
Hungry from morning til night come, dem waan wi fi live our life so
Dem ah wonder if di youth dem a go stop, no
A wonder if di ghetto a go drop, no
Dem a wonder if wi catch inna di trap, no
A wonder if jah tun him back. no

[Chorus 1]
Thank yuh jah mi wake up dis morning
Roll out di herbs before me start yawning
Tun round bus a kiss pon mi dawlin
Tell har seh honey mi ah touch inna di steet

In di street mi see poor people bawlin
Nuff juvenile nuh even nyam from morning
Weh di black woman future me aks him
Weh di system a do fi she? No

[Verse]
Big up di gyal dem weh fight it alone an ah raise two three pickney pon dem own
Weh di man deh? no man know dey home, Babylon have dem inna jail
Big up di juvenile dem inna di street
We a seh dem haffi make it an nah touch di chrome
Dem no waan wi fi claim our own, but Africa nah found nuf hole inna road
Ghetto youth we go on and on, Babylon waan wi gone
Hungry from morning til night come, dem waan wi fi live our life so
Dem ah wonder if di youth dem a go stop, no
A wonder if di ghetto a go drop, no
Dem a wonder if wi catch inna di trap, no
A wonder if jah tun him back. no
