As long as there's life, oh yes we know there is hope

We found a way to survive, we still ah travel the road

And we can always decide to find a way how to cope

The journey's long and it's wide

cause time is longer than a rope

Certain tings might go 'pon your nerves

And dem do you tings what you just don't deserve

G'wan tell di world a blessing over curse

One day, the last will be the first

Full speed forward, you just can't reverse

Uplift yourself when dem expect di worse

Hear wha me say in ah di verse

It's time to leave, time to quench your spiritual thirst

Put down the trouble then you walk away

You don't have to fight today

No, you nuh fi do it again nuh do it again

You do it from way back when

Put down the trouble then you walk away

You don't have to fight today

No, you nuh fi do it again nuh do it again

You do it from way back when

Put down di trouble then you walk from dem

Trouble making people take no talk from dem

New life, new chapter, new time and friend

You ah follow yuh instinct, you just can't pretend

A brand new start you will find again

Nuh make nobody interrupt you this time again

One piece of mind, clear mind again

Everything incline again, love it you'll shine again

Put down the trouble then you walk away

You don't have to fight today

No, you nuh fi do it again nuh do it again

You do it from way back when

Put down the trouble then you walk away

You don't have to fight today

No, you nuh fi do it again nuh do it again

You do it from way back when

Me nuh tell you fi take this honor

Offer yuh life, can do what you wanna

But if you draw fi the guns and the ammo

Next ting me know, you ah go draw fi di bomber

Take a check and sort out yuh grammar

Sentence nuh right, boy you need a few comma

But if you don't stop talk and stammer

Den you ah fi talk in front of yuh honor

Put down the trouble then you walk away

You don't have to fight today

No, you nuh fi do it again nuh do it again

You do it from way back when

Put down the trouble then you walk away

You don't have to fight today

No, you nuh fi do it again nuh do it again

You do it from way back when

Certain tings might go 'pon your nerves

And dem do you tings what you just don't deserve

G'wan tell the world a blessing over curse

One day, the last will be the first

Full speed forward, you just can't reverse

Uplift yourself when dem expect di worse

Hear wha me say in ah di verse

It's time to leave, time to quench your spiritual thirst

Put down the trouble then you walk away

You don't have to fight today

No, you nuh fi do it again nuh do it again

You do it from way back when

Put down the trouble then you walk away

You don't have to fight today

No, you nuh fi do it again nuh do it again
