Stress Songtext
von Richie Campbell

I got a lot of things way up inna me head
My people dem ah suffer, dem no see no bread
I might just drop the music and pick up a gun instead
I swear fi my madda me would a shot somebody dead
Me say me tired of the games weh dem a play dread
How politicians dem so dunce, dem must be inbred
My country go up inna flames
The people dem a bawl out your name
And we end up get save by the rain

So right ah now me stress
The situation′s not the best
I keep a smile on my face, yeah
I keep a smile on my face, yeah

So right ah now me stress
The situation's not the best
But I keep a smile on my face, yeah
I keep a smile on my face, yea


That one yah name you mussi mad
Likkle yute a bawl no move you like you nah no heart
Election time ah come you take a trip down ah we yard
Watch me slap the lies outta your mouth to pussyclaat
No mek me hold you outta a road alone ah night, no bodyguard
You take people fi idiot
Take poor people fi fool
No mek me hold you after dark, beat you down like when you deh a school

So right a now me stress
The situation′s not the best
I keep a smile on my face, yeah
I keep a smile on my face, yeah

So right a now me stress
The situation's not the best
But I keep a smile on my face, yeah
I keep a smile on my face, yeah

Well, okay
Money make the world go around, but my people dem deserve fi live straight
Tell me how a madda ah go raise her son if she no home before eight
Dem type of thing yah ah weh me hate
Well, that a poor people fate, Lord


Well, I got a lot of things way up inna me head
My people dem a suffer, dem no see no bread
Might just drop the music and pick up a gun instead
I swear fi my madda me would a shot somebody dead
Yo me tired of the games weh dem a play dread
Politicians dem so dunce, dem must be inbred
My country go up inna flames, Lord
Nobody seem to hear we bawl out

So right ah now me stress
The situation's not the best
I keep a smile on my face, yeah
I keep a smile on my face, yeah

So right ah now me stress
The situation′s not the best
But I keep a smile on my face, yeah
I keep a smile on my face, yeah

So right ah now me stress
