Yo, dawg, if you want some good life finally
Perhaps change your night time hobby
Come out of the old crime lobby
And benefit from your wisdom
Me ah gwan live it up, life is better than great
Every other day mi voice a dozen dub plate
Put in our hustle, we no sidung and wait
Tough up unnu muscle, no it's never too late
Fi gwaan celebrate in a rich people place

With food in our plate and drinks in our crate

On the playground is where I spend most of my days
Burning Babylon and dem dirty ways
While watchin' all the rich kids gone astray

On the playground is where I spend most of my days
Big city life Kingston and Mobay
And if you think me sell out

And yes y'all
You now rocking with the best Black Thought from the legendary Roots crew in the flesh
I slid up in here with the brothers from the Marley family
Creston - we gon' say it for y'all
Hey!
She loves to party, have a good time
She looks so hearty, feeling fine
She loves to smoke, sometimes shifting coke
She's laughing when there ain't no joke, hey
That's all she was, now
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was, now
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was
'Cause coke was a thing that once she first try
Was once a blue moon to once a blue sky
Now she's wondering who else wants to go buy
She don't got no money and wants to get high
Story sounds familiar, like born to be wild, but she sillier
Not quite the same, but she similar
A waste of my sarsaparilla
Used to look good in the videos, now she look hideous
Now it's broken crack pipes with lipstick traces
Work the cold nights red district places
She seen more hotels than my tour suitcases
More male customers than Old Navy's
She love limelight more than John Swayze
Seen more miles than a rental Avis
She don't slow down then some day maybe
She lost and she can't find her way to safety
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was, now
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was, now
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was
Check it out
She keep her head up in the space like a satellite
Because she got an insatiable appetite
For staying out late nights with all the parasites
Plotting on a way to cop a little piece of paradise
Her dignity the only thing that she could sacrifice
Just get the monkey off her back and she'd be back in line
Five minutes she stay on the move
She'd done smoked up the stone that the builder refused
All coked up alone, she ain't even in tune
And it's sad, 'cause she ain't really have a reason to use
She was pretty girl, cleaner than the Board of Health
Studied and enjoyed herself, I don't know what drove her to avoid herself
Destroyed herself and took a taste of the yay'
And now she on the track, working while she wasting away
It's safe to say, she looking for a some place to stay
Who ever got a little paper to play can get a slice of this
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was, now
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was, now
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was
For no reason, a seasoned spliff was the first thing
One spring season while she's out flirting
Now she season in and don't need rehearsing
Esteem gets a beating, life is uncertain
Ego need feeding, now the wants worsen
Beneath the demons, she's a warm person
When she's not fiending, swearing and cursing
Behind the curtain, she's really hurting
And while her people don't even trust her at home
The dealer dem grin and cook the rocks down
And she without sin will spark the first stone
The feeling kicks in, she's in the dark zone
Old friends walk pass going 'bout their own
As if she is someone that they don't know
Then the King of Kings lift her off the flo'
Saying, "Life is a thing, when you learn you grow"
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was, now
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was, now
Pimpa's paradise (pimpa's paradise)
That's all she was
She rise and she fall like a star
Her life write off like a car
Her face full of all kinda scar
Always quick fi start a war
She can't keep herself up to par
She plays like a broken guitar
She always want tek it too far
I doubt she a-go mek it so far
She rise and she fall like a star
Her life write off like a car
Her face full of all kinda scar
Always quick fi start a war
She can't keep herself up to par
She plays like a broken guitar
She always want tek it too far
Mi wonder how she mek it so far
Woah (make it so far, make it so far)

Now greetings to the world
Standing at this liquor store
Whiskey coming through my pores
Feeling like I run this whole block
Lotto tickets cheap beer
That's why you can catch me here
Tryna scratch my way up to the top
'Cause my job got me going nowhere
So I ain't got a thing to lose
Take me to a place where I don't care
This is me and my liquor store blues
I'll take one shot for my pain
One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today
I'll be ok tomorrow
One shot for my pain
One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today
I'll be ok tomorrow
Me and my guitar tonight
Singing to the city lights
Tryna live on more than what I got
'Cause '68 cents ain't gonna pay the rent
So I'll be out here 'til they call the cops
'Cause my job got me going nowhere
So I ain't got a thing to lose
Take me to a place where I don't care
This is me and my liquor store blues
I'll take one shot for my pain
One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today
I'll be ok tomorrow
One shot for my pain
One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today
I'll be ok tomorrow
Here comes Junior Gong, I'm flying high like Superman
And thinking that I run the whole block
I don't know if it's just because pineapple kush between my jaws
Has got me feeling like I'm on top
Give me this one shot for my pain
One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today
I'll be ok tomorrow
One shot for my pain
One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today
I'll be ok tomorrow
Now greetings to the world
You best believe

What you want and what you will
Working for your dollar bill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Walking home, ah you gets killed
Police free to shoot at will
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Nine to five you know the drill
Weekends are a shawty thrill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Come put it on over till it spill
Take until they've had their fill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Some of us think we're too big
Got a system, gives us jobs
Even though it's just a low paying game
Some of us will boast and brag
And those of us who think we're small
Just because we don't have much
That's really not the case at all
There's riches that the flesh can't touch
Some of us won't respect names
Some of us don't respect loves
Some of us don't respect life
Even though we worship God
And some of us won't let go of faith
No matter what the price may cost
Some of us wan' practice hate
But I will still believe in love
What you want and what you will
Working for a dollar bill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Walking home, a child gets killed
Neighbours free to shoot at will
Hurts to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Nine to five, we know the drill
Weekends such a short-lived thrill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Come run it over till it spill
Take until they've had their fill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Most of us think we're too good
Just because material gain
If we were living as we should
Then less of us would be in pain
Those who are misunderstood
Still deserve a voice to claim
The things that are still meaningful
To each and all of us the same
And some will say the cups are full
And give your thumbs on what we've gained
And some will say there's much more weight to pull
And then we tell you that straight up and plain
And some will think outside the box
While some of us will hold our lanes
And some of us we write the facts
While some of us just don't care
What men want and what they will
Working for a dollar bill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Walking home, a child gets killed
Police free to shoot at will
Hurts to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Nine to five you know the drill
Weekends are a short-lived thrill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow but grinding still
Come run it over till it spill
Take until they've had their fill
Sad to see the old slave mill
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Is grinding slow, but grinding still
Is grinding slow, but grinding still

Out in the streets, they call it murder
Welcome to Jamrock, camp where the thugs dem camp at
Two pound ah weed inna van back
It inna your hand bag, your knapsack, it inna your backpack
The smell ah give your girlfriend contact

On the beach with a few club sodas

And don't know the real hardcore
'Cause Sandals ah nuh back too the thugs

Don't make dem spot you, unless you carry guns a lot too

Then dem wheel and pop off and dem start clap it
With the pin file dung an it ah beat rapid

Funny man ah get dropped like a bad habit
So nuh bodah pose tuff if you don't have it
Rastafari stands alone
Welcome to Jamrock, welcome to Jamrock

Old man to Pickney, so wave unnuh hand if you with me
To see the sufferation sick me
Dem suit no fit me, to win election dem trick we
Then dem don't do nuttin' at all
Come on let's face it, a ghetto education's basic
And most ah de youths them waste it
And when dem waste it, that's when dem take the guns replace it
Then dem don't stand a chance at all
And that's why ah nuff little youth have up some fat 'matic
With the extra magazine inna dem back pocket
And ah a bleach a night time inna some black jacket
All who nah lock glocks, ah dem a lock rocket
They will full you up ah current like ah shock socket
Dem a run ah road back which part the cops block it
And from now till a mornin' nuh stop clock it
If dem run outta rounds ah bruck back ratchet

[Verse 2: Nas]
Promised Land, I picture Porsches
Basquiat Portraits
Pinky Rings, realistic princesses, heiresses, bunch a Kings and Queens
Plus I picture fortunes for kids out in Port-Au-Prince
Powerless they not allowed to fit, but not about to slip
Vision Promised Land with fashion like Madison Ave, Manhattan
Saks 5th Ave and Rodeo, Relaxing popping labels
Promise Land no fables, this where the truth's told
Use them two holes above your nose
To see the proof yo!
Imagine a contraption that could take us back when
The world was run by black men
Back to the future, anything can happen
If these are the last days
And 100-foot waves come crashing down
I get some hash and pounds, pass around the bud then watch the flood
Can't stop apocalypse, my synopsis is catastrophic
If satellites is causing earthquakes
Will we survive it?
Honestly man it's the sign of the times and the times at hand
[Hook 3: Dennis Brown]
There's alot of work to be done, O gosh

Yes a to the Promised Land
The Promised Land
Going to The Promise Land
Ooo
There's a lot of work to be done, oh Gosh, in the Promised Land

As we enter, come let we take you on to dig this adventure
Must be dementia that you ever thought you could touch our credentials
What's the initials? Q-B Jamrock the lyrical officials
Send out the order, laws, and the rituals
Burn candles, say prayers, paint murals
It is truth we big news we hood heroes
Put ass to anchor, we come to conquer
I not badman, we not play Willy Wonka
And I got the guns, I got the ganja
And we could blaze it up on your block if you want to
Or haze it up stash-box in a Hummer
Or you could run up and get done up
Or get something that you want none of
Unlimited amount you collect from us
Direct from us, street intellectuals
And I'm shrewd about decimals and my man'll speak Patois
And I can speak rap star, y'all feel me
Even if it's in Swahili or body Ghani
Masuri Sana, switch up the language and move to Ghana
Salute and honor, real revolution rhymers
Rhythm piranhas, like two Obamas, unfold the drama
Word is out, hysteria you heard about
Nas and Jr. Gong came to turn it out
Body the verses till they scream "murder" out
The kings is back time to return the crown
Who want it? Tuck your chain, we're due coming
Renegades that'll peel you back like new hundreds
Bet your jewels on it you don't want to lose on it
Either move on or move on it
Queens to Kingston gunshot we use and govern the kingdom
Rise up to Winstead I can see the fear up in your eyes, realize you can die any instant
And I can hear the sound of your voice when you must lose your life like mice in the kitchen
Snitching, I can see him pissing on his-self and he wetting up his thighs and he trying to resist it
Switching, I can smell him digging up shit like a fly, come around, and keep persisting
That's how you end up in a hit list
In a bad man business
No evidence
Crime scene, fingerprint-less
Flow effortless
Casual like the weekends
No pressure when
We're comfy and decent
We set this off beasting
Hunting season
And, frankly speaking
Word is out, hysteria you heard about
Nas and Jr. Gong came to turn it out
Body the verses till they scream "murder" out
The kings is back time to return the crown
Who want it? Tuck your chain, we're due coming
Renegades that'll peel you back like new hundreds
Bet your jewels on it you don't want to lose on it
Either move on or move on it
Word is out, hysteria you heard about
Nas and Jr. Gong came to turn it out
Body the verses till they scream "murder" out
The kings is back time to return the crown
Who want it? Tuck your chain, we're due coming
Renegades that'll peel you back like new hundreds
Bet your jewels on it you don't want to lose on it
Either move on or move on it
