[Chorus: Vershon, Govana]
Weh dem know bout zinc fence, board house

[Verse 2: Govana]
Dem nuh know nothing bout man struggle
Mama couldn't find the food fi mek the pot bubble
So mi raid the ackee tree and find a one dozen
Couldn't buy the salt fish
But at least man have something
Through mi likkle board house yuh used to laugh after me
Think a little bit a time mama bawl 'cause a me
Dem used to call mi "Cruff" when di ting ruff
So how wi fi link up when di ting up

Who used to hate me, start rate me
But no new friends like weh Drake seh
Never know seh mi mother start adopt pickney
