Verse 1

I never had it easy, for the brands and the bling
And the expensive thing, oh no
I never had the money, never had nice living
And Mama say, “Oh, you could have it all”
“Just work hard for yours”
I say “Mama, you know, I'll work hard for sure”

Pre CHORUS

Now Jah Jah bless me with the opportunity
To fly country to country
Now I can drink champagne when I thirsty
Now I could see all the ting I never see
They say the San Juan youth man so lucky
But I thank the Father and meh family
Now no bad-mind boy they could stop me
And every show I smiling, 'cause trust me
Life is so lovely, woi (wo yoi)

CHORUS 1

And I'm far from finished, woi
And I cyahn believe it, no
See, I'm far from finished, woi
Love the life that I living, yeah
(Sometime man a sit down and I cyahn believe)

Verse 2

Forever thankful for doubters in the past
And the people who laugh, oh na
Forever grateful for all the times I've failed
And Papa say, “Oh son, you cyah give up” (no, no)
“What's for you is for you”
Ah say “Papa, you know I will never stop, noo”
