St. Matthew - Hungry lyrics

rate me

Waho, wahay, yaho

Ready-back!

Waho, yahay, yaho

Mix it up, yeah!

Ca we na barren them

Real as stevus

(Chorus)

Hungry but mi not care for eat

Well ‘bout the money but we not a man mi na go sleep

So mi no envy, na want fi dem jeepa

Father God, mi love you, thank you fi the blessing on mi feet

And because of all the thing them tell me later

Mi na turn from the Lord, him take a real yo peep

From the broad sick to the narrow street

Na go tell them what fi do but I believe

(Verse 1)

And mi tell them say you haffi read

No follow everything what di pastor from the pulpit him a preach

So I’ve seen, many youths get mislead

Them pass over themselves, follow wrong lead

End up lean, like the scare trip redeem

Don’t say I’m talking trash like you’ve never seen

What I’ve seen is dirty, trying to act squeaky-clean

Mi na better them na na go home ‘feat up

Chorus

(Verse 2)

Every trial have them destiny

Maybe them na end up like helly mi shell out fi answer

For God seh ‘pon di thing that is vanity, call vanity

So why should I sell my soul for this dirty industry

Call music and loose it, cuz mi want exclusive

All inclusive, fine quizines and boozes

Can’t you see what’s happened to the stars of movies

Through themselves they’ve been a nuisance

Chorus

(Verse 3)

Last, but not least, what mi see a decrease

Is friendship in realness, mi na feel this

Said them not spread the gospel unless them feel it

So when they bring the word of God, mi wonder if them mean it

Them only pushing themselves up like cleavage

Them hit the streets simply like stealing and gleaving

My mom always tell me, “Son, take it easy,”

Gnashing nuff teeth in front a Jesus

Chorus

(Verse 1)

Again, mi a go tell them say you haffi read

Don’t follow everything what di pastor preach

So I’ve seen, many youths get mislead

Them pass over themselves, now them follow wrong lead

End up lean, like the triple deem

Don’t say I’m talking trash like you’ve never seen

What I’ve seen is dirty, trying to act like they’re clean

With my brothers never compete

Chorus

Jesus Christ is life, and I won’t leave him now

I don’t care what they wanna say, got fi praise him each and every day

He has done what no one else have ever done for me, yeah

Even when I’m down and out, and no food, na run
