Each day

[Verse 1]

Time's running out a the hour glass

Spread when you see the sky over us

Tek warning from the flooding deh

'Cause you a go pay for every blood you draw

Let's live as one and show some love

Oh, no, no, we don't need to fight

Too much hate and grudge

Where is the love? We need to try

I hate to see my people die

I hate to see my people die

Real tears falling from my eyes

Jamaica, please can we unite?

[Chorus]

Bawl, we have God a bawl, woiie

Cry, we have God a cry

Fi see how you a live 'pon earth

We really need fi convert

Oh yes, we need a change

Before Judgement reach we gates

Escape death today, you no lucky the next time

You mister man, inna jacket and neck tie

Invest inna gun, how you waan see less crime?

Jerome a just seventeen

How him have a gun weh worth a half a mill?

You should a buy a taxi fi him

Becah me sure say that no catch quarter mill

Tandeh a hype and brag, you can't hide from God

One day you a go get a beating

Fi all the evil things you a do inna the street

You a go sorry when judgement reach you

Cleanse our mind, purify our thoughts

Help to protect us from all evil doers

In Your name I pray
