[Verse 1]
Mi buss di Hennessy, ah yuh mi 'member
Yuh ever gimmi joke, although mi full ah temper
Mi nuh like twenty-twenty, mi nuh like December
Di 'mount ah friend weh mi see dead
Di 'mount weh get sentence
Father God listen to mi, yuh son ah beg ah favor
Before mi laid rest, just mek mi shame di haters
Protect mi from di hypocrite and dirty n***as
Please bless mi everyday so mi can stack di papers (Yeah)
Stand inna di rain again
Down pon mi knee fi еase mi pain again
Wah 'mount ah bloodclaat stress deh pon mi brain mi friеnd
From mi lose di G dem, everything anuh di same again
Sometime mi haffi wonder how mi nuh mad
Siddung ah talk to God
Dem woulda kill mi off ah through mi bad
And mi nuh friendly, dat go mek it worse
Di obeah dem ah work
Father God mek it reverse

[Chorus]
Mi ah carry di burden (Burden)
I'm strong, but I'm hurting (Hurting)
Life is not certain (Uh, uh)
Ah dat mi wan' yuh know
Mi feel mi heart need surgery
Mi bredda dem gone too early (Early)
Leave mi wid all these memories
Ah through yuh d'even know
[Verse 2]
Mi ah one strong enuh (Strong enuh)
Mi nuh trust nobody, everywhere mi go mi carry gun
Mummy seh fi put e down
But, if mi put e down di enemy dem aguh kill yuh son
So mi haffi paranoid, mi n'ave two life (Two life)
Mi have some set ah friend weh d'even move right (Move right)
So mi keep di 'matic closer dan mi shoe size (Straight)
Dem ah link wid certain people weh mi doh like
If dem ketch mi ah lapse, dem woulda full mi ah shot
Wul heap ah stab inna back
If mi nuh wise, mi nuh box
Long time ah fly pon di Glock
Suh mi nuh waste none ah dat
Father God work yuh miracle
Gimmi mi bredda dem back
When mi aguh through struggles, dem always deh deh fi mi
Yuh see di load wi carry
Mi wul it, mi and Bobby
Di journey really rugged
E wicked dan di Covid
Mi cup is overloaded (Hey)

[Chorus]
Mi ah carry di burden (Burden)
I'm strong, but I'm hurting (Hurting)
Life is not certain (Uh, uh)
Ah dat mi wan' yuh know
Mi feel mi heart need surgery
Mi bredda dem gone too early (Early)
Leave mi wid all these memories
Ah through yuh d'even know
[Verse 3]
Life anuh game fi play
Wul it firm and keep di faith
Many night mi pray mi pray
Tell Jah Jah fi lead di way
Dry mi tears and kneel mi pain
So mi nah go feel di same
Mi puff di weed inna mi brain
Fimmi energy nuh drain
Firm cah mi ah soldier though
Tek di drugs and overdose
Dizzy like ah rollercoast
Shake off di heavy load
Wonder if dem know dis road
Many nights mi in di cold
But anuh nuh mi alone
Mi and Jah Jah deh roam

[Chorus]
Mi ah carry di burden (Burden)
I'm strong, but I'm hurting (Hurting)
Life is not certain (Uh, uh)
Ah dat mi wan' yuh know
Mi feel mi heart need surgery
Mi bredda dem gone too early (Early)
Leave mi wid all these memories
Ah through yuh d'even know
