Oh mama mi glad you are around

Living in paradise and not in hell
Di way yuh son a get big not even words can tell
Well say Papa yuh never get fi witness
How yuh son a hot up di world wid music

Well I am the doc that come to heal yuh sickness
Hol on deh people unno listen wi music

Mi sorry yuh gone but a caan tek yuh back

So Merciless yuh don't need to complain
Anyway, well well

To see yuh bwoy a live like millionaire

But this year wi A find new gear.
