Born As A Hustler

A weh di hustlers dem deh?
Weh work hard fi dem own
A weh di hustlers dem deh?
We haffi make it pon dem own

Dem act like dem waan see me rise
But dem just a pray fi me downfall
Dem nah live fi see di day when
Mi cyaa bear fi stand tall
Dem waan mi drop blood pon mi face and
Dem waan see mi mother bawl
But, and mi seh a nuh my fault
Mi bruk life like Ghana and it cyaa shine on

Because mi born as a hustler
Mi waan money like di weed waan whistler
Mi hustle 'til my life get prettier
Big house pon the hill mi waan live inna
Because mi born as a hustler
Meet your man and leave him deh
Mi hustle 'til my life get prettier
Big house pon the hill mi waan live inna

Dem waan trick me fi less than a grand
Coulda be mi friend, mi nah sponge pon no man
Dem waan mi stay inna di ghetto weh me come from
Mi up so, dem down so, mi have a better plan
Dem nuh waan see me pon a pile of money
And dem a walk and a talk to di world seh mi funny
Dem want a dollar, dem come call me honey
But dem never deh deh when di days ever sunny

Because mi born as a hustler
Mi waan money like di weed waan whistler
Mi hustle 'til my life get prettier
Big house pon the hill mi waan live inna
Because mi born as a hustler
Meet your man and leave him deh
Mi hustle 'til my life get prettier
Big house pon the hill mi waan live inna
