Same Thing Again Songtext

von Assassin

Same thing again,
Life goes on,
We haffi carry on,
Cause even though we still inna the struggle,
Me haffi thank God above for his love ah

Same thing again,
Dinner share, dumpling an mackerel,
But we give thanks, cause sumtin in ah di pot still,
Di work no easy, tomorrow me gwah back still,
Cause di yute dem haffi eat.

Anna di same thing again
Month end da bills deh one we can't pay,
But me nah give up, nah go try di fast lane
Come home come see me furniture ah in di walk way,
Di landlord say we can't stay.

And ah di same thing again
We work hard trying to mek it someday,
When we can rejoice, hold a vibe like it's ah fun day
Friday come and we kick back until Sunday,
But tomorrow it's Monday.

Back to di same thing again
Early morning haffi reach ah work, even
Doh di boss man no move like ah jerk,
But me no qualify fi be no bank clerk,
So nuh scorn me when some grease deh pon me shirt.
And it's da same thing again,
Ghetto people's struggles neva end,
Even doh it's no money it's still more problems
But we watchin di trend,
And mek things betta for we children,
But until then,

Ah just di same thing again
Everyday mama gone ah work,
Lef her two lickle daughter dem weh she bring come ah earth,
As little breast start show, bear man ah flirt,
Now another teenager giving birth.

And ah di same thing again
Nother ghetto yute ah get stiffle,
Can't break the system no no matter how him try to,
Fustration mek di bredren go pick up di rifle,
Just ah continue di cycle.

Ah di same thing again
Just another crime without ah solver
Yute get killed, wit a point three-eight revolver
Dem seh him fire first,
But ah him get di worst
Causa, ah, him end up in ah di earth.

So now di same thing again,
It's just another nigh-night,
People block di road and ah defend dem rights,
Me ah tell yu it no nice
Yu can hear all ah the struggles in ah dem voice.

Same thing again,
Ghetto people struggles neva end
An even tho it's no money, a still more problems,
But we haffi change di trend,
And mek things betta for we children,
But until then,

Same thing again,
Get ah stamp in ah we book
Drop me no foreign cause ah 'badass' man a look
Things kinda slow, well if dere time dem go for food,
We ah get it by di or by di crook.

Cause ah di same thing again,
Now a things start turn.
Things ah look pretty now money start earn
Informer start to watch wha nuh fi dem concern,
FEDs get involved, free paper burn.

And ah di same thing again

More time me eye full a water,
When t'ink 'bout how long me no see mah daughter,
From di day da plane land,
Yo it's like it carry me back to square one.

Cause ah di same thing again,
It's like the struggles neva end,
An even though it's no money it's still more problems.
But, but we haffi change di trend,
Mek it betta fi we children,
But until then...

Same thing again,
Every day we work,
Ah di same thing again,
Still ah try fi get di break,
Ah di same thing again,
All 365,
People still ah, bad mind you for the car weh yu ...,

Same thing again,
Me ah do this from me ah youth,
Same thing again,
Mama step in ah da boot,

Same thing again,
No want no nothing new,
Cause mi a DJ bout ah cycle
Making hits, that's what we do,

Ah di same thing again.
