Never Gonna Be a Slave

Hear mi nuh Frass, Accurate
Well I a bun the fire well red
Listen what the isences a said
Things and time getting dread
Never gonna be a slave fi dem economy no
Accurate, the fire burning dem haffi let
Kabaka P a mek you know
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Rasta nah look no wuk inna dem business
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Lox a grow do nuh get it twisted
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Nah stoop nor bow fi see no rist ting
Never gonna be a slave, never gonna be a slave
Better to be brave
I rather do some farming
Plant up a couple acre than to be a faker
I prefer be a fruit seller than a tell in a bankrupt Jamaica
I prefer sell some books and some arts and crafts
Than see the vendor a ramp pon the boss man chart
Dem mek a profit but a loss man loss
Me dem nah crucified pon no cross
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Rasta nah look no wuk inna dem business
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Lox a grow do nuh get it twisted
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Nah stoop nor bow fi see no rist ting
Never gonna be a slave, never gonna be a slave
Better to be brave
Nuh badda worry when the yutes dem a falla we
We nah stick around fi bost dem economy
Dah sumtin deh fi go a school is a follicy
Pon all the teacher dem a use phycology
Yes education a di key, but it nuh free
So dem a slave you fi a fee
Once you graduate and you get your degree
A yuh student load you haffi pree
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Rasta nah look no wuk inna dem business
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Lox a grow do nuh get it twisted
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Nah stoop nor bow fi see no rist ting
Never gonna be a slave, never gonna be a slave
Better to be brave
Cause as a rasta man in a dem system
Dem discriminate we, intimidate we
Boss man him ever quick fi intiminate
And a ask what you did fi mi lately
You got your wife fi feed and a baby as well
Without self sufficent a slavery as hell
So when the bills keep pilling up
Look in a di mirror and say to yourself
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Rasta nah look no wuk inna dem business
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Lox a grow do nuh get it twisted
Never gonna be a slave to them system
Nah stoop nor bow fi see no rist ting
Never gonna be a slave, never gonna be a slave
Better to be brave
