Cyar Take Dat

I work mi finger to di bone for mi country
I squeeze blood out a stone for mi country
Di people in authority mashin' up mi family
So much a years that we sweat and toil
As we blood and tears wet till di soil
But we still sufferin' today
And mi children can't see di way, hey

I wake up in di mornin' and there's unemployment
I can't take that
Wake up in di mornin' and there's more retrenchment
I can't take that
When they going to stop all this humiliation?
I can't take that
Wake up in di mornin', more frustration
I can't take that, no
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that, hey

I love to live but mi life is a scramble
I have to teach to put a bread on mi table
You mock democracy, lickin' up mi dignity
So much a hungry mouth is to feed
As we cry blood just to sow di seed
But we still sufferin' in pain
And mi children feelin' di strain

I wake up in di mornin' and there's unemployment
I can't take that
Wake up in di mornin' and there's more retrenchment
I can't take that
When they going to stop all this humiliation?
I can't take that
I wake up in di mornin' and there's more frustration
I can't take that, no
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that, hey

I have to cry from di belly a di nation
You mash mi corn and you cause aggravation
Life under poverty is endless agony
And after all that we sacrifice
Dog eat mi dinner and we pay di price
But we must get justice today
So we children could see di way, hey

Wake up in di mornin' and there's unemployment
I can't take that
Wake up in di mornin' and there's more retrenchment
I can't take that
When they going to stop all this humiliation?
I can't take that
Wake up in di mornin' and there's more frustration
I can't take that, no
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that
Ain't takin' that, so di people ain't takin' that, hey

Give us this day our daily bread
Because a hungry man is a angry man

Wake up in di mornin' and there's unemployment
I can't take that
Wake up in di mornin' and there's more retrenchment
I can't take that
When they going to stop all this humiliation?
I can't take that
