[Chorus x2] They don't love me now like they use to do And we don't really talk like we use to do They don't love me now Like they use to do, like they use to do, like they use to do
[Verse 1] Jump out a bed in a whole different place Price yuh affi pay fi be somebody great Everybody waan sumn, complaints pon complaints Price yuh affi pay fi be somebody great Have me big house a yard and live out a suitcase Price yuh affi pay fi be somebody great Haffi laugh up wid some people weh me nuh rate Price yuh affi pay fi be somebody great
(Repeat Chorus x2)

Gwan dweet Dancehall is a heavy weight Suppose me neva buss, some artist still woulda have dem space Them wouldn't a complain. Them wouldn't have time fi hate Some a them wouldn't even have time fi go party every night straight Wouldn't a cuss and seh them get unda rate Wouldn't haffi bleach pan panta fi dub plate Me might retire a likkle late Every man waan be the man, man just waan be great Me see tour dates a get shorter Me see egos a get smaller (Ha) Neva see smoke without fire Everybody a beg friend, a look strength from each other Cyah tell when last me see me madda Long fi reason wid fada Them back to back flight ya, every week a get to me now Cyah tell when last me see me yard

Who me a go gi a strength to, who a guh remind me why me me nuh gi no strength now? (Hmph) Honestly, me nuh too trust people so much (Hmph) Honestly, them get comfortable dem feel them know you too much No honestly, me feel me too real Honest too much Them gi we five minutes of fame, that was too much Come in by the teaspoon, come out wid a cup full up
(Repeat Chorus x2)

[Outro] Day and day me a lose offa humans, you know? Jah know... A pree fi guh move to a different planet or sumn
