Richie Campbell - Think About Life lyrics

Damn how this happened to me?
How this happened to me, rudeboy?
Me nuh know memba what mamma used to say?
She was right, no?

This is what you should do
When you think about life
Study, get a job, raise a
Family with your wife
This is what you should do
Instead of buying a gun
No violence, no never paid
No violence, no never paid, no education

To have a good job you need education
No mingle with them criminal and dem mad plan
Mek sure seh yuh nah sell your soul to satan
Careful nah fi sleep with no diseased woman
1, 2, 3 you got AIDS, it's easy
Anita, Rita, Anne Marie, Jody or Cherry?
Which a dem bitches gave me me HIV?"
But, you made the mistake too, don't you see?

Infected and neglected
And your kids are hungry
What you gonna do, bredda, how's it gonna be
Reach at home your wife
She looks mad and angry
She said 'Just let me go
Before you infect me'
It's too late to admit all your mistakes
Your children nah fi pay fi your escapes
She said 'Leave please
If you bring nothing home
But that wicked disease'

This is what you should do
When you think about life
Study, get a job, raise a
Family with your wife
This is what you should do
Instead of buying a gun
No violence, no never paid
No violence, no never paid, no education

Now you lay down in your bed and
Take a look back on life
Your friends are gone your kids
Dem living with your ex-wife
Everyday a struggle, everyday another strife
You got nothing to hold you down
To this sad life

You think this tune is gonna
Help you solve your problem
And think that by the end
You'll know the solution
But bredda let me tell you
What's the real lesson
You fucked up your life
And that's the conclusion

Nah fuck no man, nah rob nuh
Bank, nah sniff no cocain
How this happen to me
Can someone please, explain
No man can help you out
The answers in your brain
How you fi mess your own
Life and the you complain?
You so damn ignorant and now you ashamed
You pray everyday and it is in vain
But bwoy, you still alive
Mek sure you change your ways
Today and you'll survive

This is what you should do
When you think about life
Study, get a job, raise a
Family with your wife
This is what you should do
Instead of buying a gun
No violence, no never paid
No violence, no never paid, no education

This is what you should do
When you think about life
Study, get a job, raise a
Family with your wife
This is what you should do
Instead of buying a gun
No violence, no never paid
No violence, no never paid, no education
