Now the race is not for the swift,
only who can endure it.
Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive.
And when you start to survive, just keep on,
keep yourself alive.
Say it, say last say I know.
Sometimes the road gets too rough
and you can't stand the pace.
Can't keep up with the leaders,
so get out of the race.
Though you try and try so hard,
failure is your just reward.
There is a lesson you must learn.
Play with fire, you must get burned.
The going is rough, it's gonna get tougher.
The going is tough, it's gonna get tougher.
So if you're worrying down,
it's time to get out and stop running the mouth.
They say don't kill no business in a champion race.
Three days you'll be a confirmation of the place where they set it.
No boy can't take it.
Say who can't take it, better go on and lift it.
Then the older them say we can't show them ticket.
Then the rest of them gon' go empty the bucket.
What?
No, your face.
No bother try to choke it.
If you try to choke it,
you must kick the bucket.
Everyday another imposter,
one come take away the place.
And everywhere we go,
there's another one,
one come pointing out with fierce.
Though they try to get us out,
we've got no fear and we've got no doubt.
We've got the talent and we've got the skill.
We know the way and we've got the will.
It's gonna get rougher.
the going is tough.
It's gonna
get tougher.
I'm
Come on.
Check check.
It's tough it's gonna get
tougher
With you were in doubt.
It's
them going to the bucket or bang up your face.
No bother try to choke it.
If you try to choke
it, you must kick the bucket.
Sometimes the road gets too rough and you can't stand the
pace.
Can't keep up with the leaders,
so get out of the race.
Though you try and try so
hard, failure is your just reward.
There is a lesson you must learn,
play with fire you
will get burned.
If a boy want a kid, him have to come harder.
Won't take cutty, cutty, cutty, run the border.
You declare war, but we not take no prisoner.
You start the fight, so we going carry further.
You too bright and you too out of order.
If you want talk, so we must turn you over.
This a cutty rank one day microphone center.
When me come,
I dance with confidence within my culture.
So don't come in here and me start pretty dodger.
Dodger give me strength and make me live longer.
On the record,
them go down and shiver.
This a cutty rank one day microphone center.
Buckets too crayfish down a the river.
Put a me potty full a hot water.
Fling in some yam and some Irish potato.
Some carrot, turnip and even guava.
