Man a Yard
Man a yard help mi fi understand what a gwan in yuh ministry
A set them set yuh up ar' a lie yuh a tell bout yuh phone bill run up
Data... A wah that?
Over 8 million dollars, mi can't even tell yuh how mi disappointed inna yuh
Mi a live hand to mouth and yuh a give FLOW 8 million dollaz
Shake Mi head
Mi just eat piece a bread no money fi buy butter
No money fi pay fi the little one bedroom, over Portmore
Mi drink a glass a wata to wash dung the bread... Thank yuh Lord
Shake mi head
Life rough... Hand to mouth is how I live
8million could pay off fi mi little house and help Paul fi finish law school and yes, help Miss Brown with her cancer treatment
At 74 mi coulda stop sell newspaper.. 8 million dollarz... Them news people must a read wrong... 8 million dollaz?
Mi disappointed in yuh man a yard, mi need fi hear what a gwan in a yuh ministry ar' a lie yuh tell
Mi nuh understand this data ting
Mi just know 8 million would help mi condition
Life rough... Hand to mouth is how I live
