Wan′ some dear jeans with some cash inna it
You see di old man talk seh ah nappy night
An' rob di likkle cabby just fi wear a flashy Nike
Big up who ah hold it out and mek di sacrifice (mek di sacrifice)
Youth nah go lose dem self fi live a happy life
Generals weh run dem place without a shotty rise (no)
Ah dem me gi' di rank fi keep it militant

Mek dem understand

An′ now it′s not what it used to be
Ya no it's never gonna be the same (never gonna be the same)


An′ wid di lights in the city
You see what you want to see-e

So mek we drop it militant, hey
Anytime when you spot a criminal, hey
Dem fi no seh di time ah critical, hey

As di Don Diggy say (yeah, man)
It′s never gonna be the same

That′s not the aim (never gonna be the same)
We have to change the game, yeah

Yeah, yeah, Genna, Genna

(Everybody wanna hear their name)
(So, they look inna di streets for fame, fame, fame, fame, fame)
′Cause they look in di streets for fame (fame, fame)
They look in di streets for fame

Never gonna be, never gonna be, never gonna be the same
Never gonna be, never, never, never gonna be-
Never gonna be the same
Never gonna be the same
Never gonna be the same
Never gonna be the same
