[00:26.26]A word unto the wise is enough
[00:30.59]You can look but don't touch
[00:33.59]My relations and such
[00:38.46]Cause out here in this jungle we roam
[00:42.78]Every king has his thrown

[01:30.44]Dem don't even realize jah no wrong dem
[01:33.68]Cause a see that in life you achieve something nice
[01:36.63]But achieve something twice is a problem
[01:39.78]Then you can imagine what I face
[01:42.38]Two up in the hand and another on the way
[01:46.08]Plus I have another in the brain
[01:48.22]And every other one a put the other one to shame

[02:46.36]I rather march alone
[02:47.59]Than fi march back home
[02:49.38]Tell me queen say me lost the throne
[02:51.87]No this was built on the power of the truth
[02:55.16]Discovering the powers and empowering the youths
[02:57.86]If you give dem a minute dem devouring the fruits
[03:01.28]And within an hour called it sour chappy roots
[03:03.98]Unno see it nuh skill like bibi pon me feet

[03:10.09]Dem nuh parity between what we have and what we need
[03:13.02]So strength out the wise and protection for the meek
