F#                C#
Am just trying to make some music
D#m               B
Am just trying to entertain
F#                C#

We might share the same culture
D#m               B
But we are not the same
F#                C#
You don't even know my story
D#m               B
You don't even know me
F#                C#
The stage is like a court room
D#m               B
The crowd is like a jury
F#                C#
So much badmind surround me

I always learn to keep my faith
D#m               B
Even when it seems too late
F#                C#
Standing outside heavens gate
D#m               B
Hoping to God they'll let me in
F#                C#
I know I ain't perfect
D#m               B
No one on this earth is
F#                C#
So tell me why you wah fi fight me down
D#m               B
Why you wah me lay down under ground
F#                C#
As a ghetto yute I stand alone

Forgive me for my sins my wrongs
F#                C#
And let me carry on with my Redemption Song

See trouble a come, weh trouble

D#m               B
And time is hard and it cold like snow
F#                C#
No one knows the struggles me been tru
D#m               B
And nobody inna di world can walk in my shoe
F#                C#
From me a nine a me mommy alone
D#m               B

But I learn to stay strong
F#                C#
Walk the streets without no fears
D#m               B
Sleepless nights and no one cares
F#                C#
At times I cry and no one hears
D#m               B
Live my life out on the edge
F#                C#
Watch my frenz lay in the dirt
D#m               B
And no one knows how much that hurts
F#                C#
Put on my pants, my shoes, my shirt
D#m               B
Sunday morning the fuss one deh inna church
