Wayne Marshall - Overcome lyrics

rate me

True, true... true true, true, true...

True true

True, true... true true, true, true

Times well hard and they are today

But if you don't work then you won't get paid

Many obstacles come along the way

Overcome yutes overcome

Many are called but the chosen few

Nothin in this world that you can do

If you work hard then you will pull through, overcome, overcome

The reason dat we call dat one yah overcome

Because some likkle yutes movin oh so dumb

Sit down hardly nuttin

And they waan things come

And they nuh pressure people

Bout they waan income

Young, baby fadda caan feed him son

And any girl he dun seh him need him gun

Get gun tek gun rob Mr. Chung

Five innocent people get licked down because

Times well hard and they are today

But if you don't work then you won't get paid

Many obstacles come along the way

Overcome yutes overcome

Many are called but the chosen few

Nothin in this world that you can do

Work hard for your dreams

And they will come true, overcome, overcome

Everyday yuh get up, livin like a bum

But if yuh waan good

Memba yuh nose haffi go run

Get up brush up tek yourself out a di slum

And go find a trade, and mek somethin fun

Don't drown your stress inna smoke or rum

So much dro dem would put yuh undaground

Set up buss all likkle food and likkle bun

So when di week dun yuh nah fi beg nobody none

Times well hard and they are today

But if you don't work then you won't get paid

Many obstacles come along the way

Overcome, overcome

Many are called but the chosen few

Nothin in this world that you can do

If you work hard then you will pull through overcome, overcome
