My Time
Kabaka Pyramid Lyrics

Huh!
Expressing surprise or disbelief

Wo, oh, oh
Vocalization of excitement or anticipation

See dem a wonder how, how, how me dweet yeh
Others are curious about how I am achieving success

We no play around
We are serious and focused on our goals

I've been waiting patient so long
I have been waiting patiently for a long time

Now a my time fi shine
Now it is my turn to succeed and be recognized

Wo oh
Vocalization of excitement or joy

I've been working hard for so long
I have been working diligently for a long time

Always on the grind
Consistently working hard

Till I'm losing my mind
To the point of becoming mentally exhausted

We no waste time
We do not waste time or procrastinate

Deh pon the grind like a coffee bean
Working tirelessly and persistently, like coffee beans being ground

Me to the hustle is like opium to poppy seeds
I am deeply and obsessively committed to my work

So big up every ghetto yute weh come and lock you scheme
Respecting and appreciating every young person from the ghetto who succeeds against the odds

This a the prophecy
This is a prediction or forecast

Seh every mickle mek a muckle so no watch it pree
Every little effort adds up to something significant, so do not underestimate it

From the one dem weh fighting you dem waan fi go round you, true
When others oppose you, they want to avoid confronting you directly

Dem no see hype in you, dem no put life in you
They do not recognize or appreciate your potential

Seh dem cyaa frighten you
They cannot intimidate or scare you

Ten toes the hours me put inna di voicing booth
I have spent countless hours recording music

Yeah
Expression of agreement or confirmation

Ay
Expression of excitement or emphasis

Everybody need a likkle motivation
Everyone requires a little encouragement

More time you feel like you stuck in the situation
Often, you may feel trapped in a challenging situation

Put in the work, no bother with procrastination
Dedicate yourself to the work without wasting time

If me do that, you wouldn't hear me pon your station
If I did not prioritize hard work, my music would not be played on the radio

Just imagine if you say never try an'
Imagine if you never took the chance

Mess and then give up when him have tears in him eyes
Fail and give up when faced with difficulties

Or if mi disabled still have faith and me pride
Even if I am disabled, I still have faith and pride

So you know me a the straight to the price
You know I am committed to achieving success

Seh man a put in the work like a pastor inna the church
I work tirelessly, just like a pastor in a church

Man a sweat out me shirt like a farmer inna the dirt
I work hard, just like a farmer in the dirt

Man a live out me life cah me no waan see no hearse
I live my life fully because I do not want to die

So me voice me song and then me gwaan go rehearse
I record my music and then go practice

For weh we going we no waan see reverse
We do not want to go back or regress

Me no rob and me no steal, me no waan see no purse
I do not engage in theft or crime, and I do not desire material possessions

Nuff a dem waan fi see we walk with a curse
Many of them wish for us to experience misfortune

But Haile I the father we serve
However, we serve Haile I (God)

Cyaa stop me now
Cannot prevent or hinder my progress

Dem cyaa stop I now
They cannot stop me now

Cyaa hold I down
Cannot keep me down

Huh!
Expression of determination or defiance
