Take Time to Know Me

One thing me tell this girl
One thing me tell this girl
My decision
Me want a girl, not a silly one
Nuh collect pennies like a piggy bank, no
Love number one

It's the signs from mi heart
My words are just a thought
Try to tell you from the start
Take time to know me
Take time to know me
Gwan go hold a medz you and your little friends
Nah 'bout dividends
You're not intelligent
Take time to know me
Take time to know me

You love likes, I can see it in your face
In many place
You're no lover, just money you a chase
You get hurt in many ways
'Cause you quick fi lie down pon bed like a pillow case
Have a youth, the father you no sure
And there's many more
Plasters to cover your bad sore
From rooftop to cold floor
And when money come, your eye open up like a bank door
You take man by random
With money every man to you look handsome
Try protect yourself, use a condom
Gwan a your yard, take care of your one son

It's the signs from mi heart
My words are just a thought
Try to tell you from the start
Take time to know me
Take time to know me
Gwan go hold a medz you and your little friends
Nah 'bout dividends
You're not intelligent
Take time to know me
Take time to know me

The pickney hungry and you bruk on desk
You no work, you rather roam and pest
Can't go a dance, you see Toma stress
Fi the hair and the nails, fi look your total best
Yo, but your life is a total mess
No matter what you do, that can't shake she
She no give an, she give the whole bakery
Why you act crazy?
One mistake comes another baby

It's the signs from mi heart
My words are just a thought
Try to tell you from the start
Take time to know me
Take time to know me
Gwan go hold a medz you and your little friends
Nah 'bout dividends
You're not intelligent
Take time to know me
Take time to know me

To how dem gyal a live, I say it's not good
Dem nah cook again, a straight box food
Lifestyle, dance, hair, nails, frock, shoes
Tell her fi farm later, she a farm fool
She a bawl and say she lonely
But me no wanna kill this life 'round me
Nuff excuse and sad story
Me tell her this and one time only

It's the signs from mi heart
My words are just a thought
Try to tell you from the start
Take time to know me
Take time to know me
Gwan go hold a medz you and your little friends
Nah 'bout dividends
Aki intelligent
Take time to know me
Take time to know me
