Vybz Kartel - Thank You Jah lyrics

Psalms 127, Selah
"127: 1 Except the Lord build the house
They labour in
Vain that build it: except the
Lord keep the city
The watchman watcheth but in vain"
Thank you, it's just another day (Selah)
Its just another day oh!

Thank you Jah mi wake up this morning
Roll out the herbs before me start yawning
Turn 'round, buss a kiss pon mi darling
Tell her say
"honey mi a touch inna di street"
In di street mi see poor people bawling
Nuff juvenile d'even nyam from morning
Weh di black woman future, me asking?
Weh di system a do fi she?

Now big up di gyal dem weh fight it alone
And a raise two, three, pickney pon dem own
Weh di man deh? No man nuh deh home?
Babylon have dem inna jail (Mhmm)
Big up di juvenile dem inna di street
Weh a say, "dem haffi make it
And nah touch di chrome"
Them no waan we fi claim our own
But Africa nah form no fool inna Rome

Ghetto youth we go on and on
(Babylon waan we gone)
Hungry from morning 'til night come
Them waan we fi live our life so
Them a wonder if di youth dem a go stop (No)
A wonder if di ghetto a go drop (No)
Them a wonder if we catch inna di trap (No)
A wonder if Jah turn him back (No)

Thank you Jah mi wake up this morning
Stand up, and smile, Lord
When we see it storming
Mi vision say, better days coming
Every day that mi a pree mi nuh see nuh job
Nor no free education weh dem did promise
None of dem never give we nothing
It's like ghetto youths lost to di system
Every day that mi a pree

Now big up di gyal dem weh fight it alone
And a raise two, three, pickney pon dem own
Weh di man deh? No man nuh deh home?
Babylon have dem inna jail (Mhmm)
Big up di juvenile dem inna di street
Weh a say, "dem haffi make it
And nah touch di chrome"
Them no waan we fi claim our own
But Africa nah form no fool inna Rome

Ghetto youth we go on and on
(Babylon waan we gone) Hungry from
Morning 'til night come
Them waan we fi live our life so
Them a wonder if di youth dem a go stop (No)
A wonder if di ghetto a go drop (No)
Them a wonder if we catch inna di trap (No)
A wonder if Jah turn him back (No)

Thank you Jah mi wake up this morning
