All who nuh wan' hear mi talk can't stop mi career Voice it, make di world hear Though you can try kill a man, you can't kill it, my dear So says di great Che Guevar' Inna my town weh mi grow, you can't have no fear Coward nuh live 'round here Haffi stand firm fi survive and defend your share Di burden, di brave must bear
Suh mi go suh, tings and times will tell Suh yuh gotta learn your lessons well Some man live inna mansion, dem ah get pension While some livin' in hell
Blood, sweat, and tears We don't got no fear Got to be prepared For this land, I will forever care
And that's why me stay so, huh Cah we escape from a place Where it seems like poverty embrace yuh You a try win inna di race when yuh look Is a police a chase yuh (Woo, woo) And a bare gunshot dem ah spread Don't think dem ah miss yuh Nah court case yuh Dem waste yuh, huh (Yo, yo, yo, yo) These are just the facts of life (Hey) But each man tries to maximize (Hey) And meanwhile some will fantasize Of who they can't be, they patronize
Blood, sweat, and tears (Ayy) We don't got no fear Got to be prepared For this land, I will forever care
Dime, ¿de qué vale El que vive en una mansión Si no tienes una buena intención en tu corazón? Que el dinero no vale nada Y la vida en un ratico se acaba Algunos lo tienen todo Y no tienen panas Se tiran la vida por la ventana No importa el Deli, el Lambo o el Rolls-Royce Si no tienes con quien salir el fin de semana Mejor dicho, sí, un par de amigos falsos sobran por ahí Que dicen que a ti te quieren por lo que tienes A ningún humano eso le conviene, ¿no?
¿De dónde vengo yo? (My people, my people) ¿De dónde vengo yo? Oh-oh (Mi gente, mi gente) ¿De dónde vengo yo? Oh-oh (My people, my people, yeah) ¿De dónde vengo yo? Oh-oh, ayy (Mi gente, mi gente)
Blood, sweat, and tears (Ayy) We don't got no fear Got to be prepared For this land, I will forever care
