[Intro: Flowdan & Filthy Gears]
Listen, mi ah di boss, boss
Mi ah di boss, boss
Boss, boss
Mi ah di boss, boss (Filthy Gears)
[Verse 1: Flowdan]
Cyaan do a ras'
Cyaan tek man for fool, we tek dem to school
We leave dem in class
Man dedicate them like the manners and rules
And then the roads get dark
'Cah the next sad song might be about you
I see goons in the park
Pouring juice on the floor, bunning zoots in the air
For the friend dem weh gone
Anytime of the year, dem t'ink they could gwaan
Quick to pop corn
That's why man are boss and already on guard
No need to ask
Silly questions like who's in charge
'Cah you cyaan do a ras', cyaan do a ras'
[Chorus: Flowdan]
Rise up mi ting tall up, tall up
'Cah wi mek di place dark up, dark up
When every soldier ah march up, march up
Mi nah run from dem, everyting ah start up
Man rise up mi ting tall up, tall up
Wi mek di place dark up
Wha? Claim seh you run round here
Alright, boss up, boss up
[Post-Chorus: Flowdan & Frisco]
Mi ah di boss, boss
Mi ah di boss, boss
Boss, boss
Mi ah di boss, boss (Fris!)
[Verse 2: Frisco]
Yo, boss
I ain't got no boss
You ain't gonna tell me what to do
I call the shots, I'm my own boss
And if a man try diss the boss
Deal with it fast (Come on)
Punch man in the face
And give man a nose job
Rise up something that's new
Gunshots that will turn a Black man blue (Sky!)
You ain't a boss, rudeboy, who are you?
It's one bag of tings when man ah pass through
True, when it comes to beef
I'll stick a fork in you
And if you ain't the boss
Well, I don't wanna talk to you
[Chorus: Flowdan]
Rise up mi ting tall up, tall up
'Cah wi mek di place dark up, dark up
When every soldier ah march up, march up
Mi nah run from dem, everyting ah start up
Man rise up mi ting tall up, tall up
Wi mek di place dark up
Wha? Claim seh you run round here
Alright, boss up, boss up
[Post-Chorus: Flowdan]
Mi ah di boss, boss
Mi ah di boss, boss
Boss, boss
Mi ah di boss, boss
[Verse 3: Flowdan]
Yo, where they all gone?
I can't see them anymore, can't see them ah ras'
How long will it last?
I don't dream anymore, stay awake and sharp
Ready fi dun dem bloodclaat
They ain't seen what I saw, put my hand on my heart
A lot of them are doing witchcraft
Don't trust no shadow after dark
Never know mi ah di boss, boss
So you gotta listen when I talk
One chance means last
Send fi di yellow tape and white chalk
Dargs blast
Gonna be a very long walk to your place
Graveyard, mi ah di boss
[Chorus: Flowdan]
Rise up mi ting tall up, tall up
'Cah wi mek di place dark up, dark up
When every soldier ah march up, march up
Mi nah run from dem, everyting ah start up
Man rise up mi ting tall up, tall up
Wi mek di place dark up
Wha? Claim seh you run round here
Alright, boss up, boss up
[Post-Chorus: Flowdan]
Mi ah di boss, boss
Mi ah di boss, boss
Boss, boss
Mi ah di boss, boss
