One Eye Open - Jesse Royal

Young come a gang up inna you group,

as if you think mi fear you' troupe.

A jah jah mi salute.

Some likkle bwoy a live a luu.

Give me all you' loot, Repatriation inna mi view.

Remember karma loop, Suh watch you mouth' and how you move

Is like you nah guh feel mi.

pain until mi knock it pon you.

An' treat you like a savage.

weh dem cage a hope zoo.

A havoc to you premises like a typhoon,

Eradicate you fools before you try fi plot mi doom,

Mi fling you ova the platoon you an' you likkle goons.

You rise against the lion now you gone too soon

We guided by the master, obstacles weh inna mi view

Will have to fade away, like elder Dennis said to you.

Suh I an I sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

(1)

Suh I an I sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

(2)

Suh I an I sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

(3)

You disrespect the youth by strangling the truth.

But since you cannot hear, you’re gonna feel

You disrespect the youth by strangling the truth.

But since you cannot hear, you’re gonna feel my sick

i’ve been stalking by the green telling

you exactly how i feel (Exactly how i feel,)

Congo man, sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

oh I an I sleep with one eye open,

cause sleep a dicousin a death.

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

Suh let the wicked be ashamed.

When they aim to defame.

The righteous youths weh a hail, Jah jah name

They think it’s a game, when they ain’t an' maim

My name to attain, their glory and fame.

So i can’t be blamed, when i load and aim

My lyrical bullets on the fools, Just saying

They only cause mi anguish and pain, Trying suh hard to see i derail.

But I an I sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

Oh I an I sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

Oh I an I sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

Just telling you Exactly how i feel

Disrespecting the Y.O.U.T.J to my world Congo man,

Sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.

Oh I an I sleep with one eye open, cause sleep a dicousin a death

An we nuh paro but suhit set, an we forgive but we never forget.
