[Intro]
Yea gotta stay conscious - huh - aaah
Gotta get my bread gotta keep my head up
These are the f**ing days
When the gal dem in dem teens have the f**ing aids
Nuff yute nuh have degrees but dem have the grades
Picture dis an' try fi see it with yuh f**ing ears
These are the f**ing times
When yuh sneakers ain't yuh only nines
Some weh call pon Jesus a dem commit the crimes
Nuff illiterate and still a read between the lines
Those are the f**ing dudes
Claim dem a yuh friend and want yuh f**ing food
Then some a dem a rob while some a dem rape
While some a dem k** while some a dem shoot
Is like we need a rated R pon the f**ing news
These are the f**ing days
When yuh caan trust police wid dem dutty ways
Juvenile a run the streets wid the f**ing Ks
Yo yuh caan even rest in peace in yuh f**ing grave
Every day a di same sh**
Different gyal, same dick
Different flow, same spit
Different d**, same ship
Same Busy, different hits
With different messages reaching out to everyone in all different communities
Yea These are the f**ing things
That make a f**ing DJ wanna f**ing sing
Mi caan believe the babymother dash the pickney in the thing we pissing in
Babyfather beat har wid the thing wah glistening, yuh listening?
These are the f**ing days yuh haffi hustle in the street like a f**ing slave
Then the boss a work the least get the f**ing raise
Yuh nuh si say di leaders need step up the pace
Listen to these f**ing facts
Who nuh hav a Smith & Wesson hav a Glock
Coppa whistle, somebody missin' when you hear it stop
Anotha mother bawl while she suffer the loss
Welcome to these f**ing streets
Chalk line, white sheet, regular we see it
Less fortunate get treated like some refugees
But don't get fed up keep ya head up stay on yuh feet
Right now we are at a f**ing stage
This day and age is like we locked up inna f**ing cage
A me a tell yuh seh di system need fi rearrange
It's kinda strange mi waan fi buy a Range but the price outta mi range
Watch the f**ing way you move
k**ers in the street always got something to prove
Watch yuh step yuh betta watch the f**ing road yuh choose
Be careful how yuh live yuh life cah dem will out yuh fuse
These days at the airport
Dem waan yuh tek off belt, kick off Airforce
Dem tek weh cologne, roll-on, toothpaste weh dem care bout
Mi feel woulda pull mi f**ing hair out
These are the f**ing days
When yuh haffi sing seh "These Are The f**ing Days"
Yo mi caan believe seh these are the f**ing days
While mi sing for da sake ya please play the f**ing phrase
[Outro]
