QQ - The Struggle is Real

Struggle is real
Ooh Ye
Ye ye
Yeaaaaaa

Me say the struggle is real
Me tell yuh say the struggle is real ye
Man affi hold it out pon battlefield ye
Tears can't express how me feel ye

Yow Iba
Tears come to me eyes when me a chat
But a hungry days mek ghetto youths just affi chap
Overqualified and me can't even find a job
So tell me how the fuck me a go put on fimmi pot
Mama owe rent landlord beg her a fuck round a the back
Then unu a wonder how Jamaica get so hot
A the only place weh food more expensive than shot
Tell me when last yuh go a shop go order chicken back
No family nor no friends dem never yet sorry fi me
If me drop out tomorrow the whole a dem cry fi me
Big funeral, family fly down fi me
Them would a try with the world before them try with me
Miss pearl say before she gi me she rather poison me
The worm them inna me belly more time talk to me
A nuh little bit a enemy rise up against me
Watch how me a go shine like the sun mek dem see

Cause The struggle is real ye
Tell yuh say the struggle is real ye
Man affi hold it out pon battlefield
Tears can't express how me feel ye

Boom
Whole heap a test man face pon life playground
Wake up inna the morning pray fi mek it til the day done
Nuff youth affi run fi dem life and a no stadium
Gyal a look a food a big man a tell her lay down
Corruption, inna the system, through the wharf dem, a bare gun
Man go inna the church go kill the lady before the prayer done
Tell them say the struggle is real if a no cashpot a J nephew and him wray rum
Them say hungry calf suck the most milk
A lie them a tell
Good youths will never get kill
A lie them a tell
JPS a reduce we bill
A lie them a tell
MP say prescription affi fill
A lie them a tell
You nuh see a pure prison a build, Ghetto youth Better yuh gwan go learn a skill
Nuh fraid fi touch inna the street and do some hustling
Stop siddung pon corner wait pon handout thing

Cause the struggle is real
Struggle is real ye
Struggle is real
Man affi hold it out pon battlefield ye oooh

Me say the struggle is real
Me tell yuh say the struggle is real ye
Man affi hold it out pon battlefield ye

Ohhhh

Tears come to me eyes when me a chat
But a hungry days mek ghetto youth just affi chop
Overqualified and me can't even find a job
So tell me how the fuck me a go put on fimmi pot
Mama owe rent landlord beg her a fuck round a the back
Then unu a wonder how Jamaica get so hot
A the only place weh food more expensive than shot
Tell me when last yuh go a shop go order chicken back
No family nor no friends dem never yet sorry fi me
If me drop out tomorrow the whole a dem cry fi me
Big funeral, family fly down fi me
Them would a try with the world before them try with me
Miss pearl say before she gi me she rather poison me
The worm them inna me belly more time talk to me
A nuh little bit a enemy rise up against me
Watch how me a go shine like the sun mek dem see

Cause the struggle is real
Tell yuh say the struggle is real ye
Man affi hold it out pon battlefield ye
Tears can't express how me feel ye
