Old Me
Paul Anthony Lyrics

I miss the old me
I long for the person I used to be

No matter weh dem try
Regardless of what they attempt

No negative can hold me
Negativity cannot restrain me

Yeah… I'm taking back my life now
I am reclaiming control over my life

I'm in control of me
I have full authority over myself

Mmmhmmm and I shoulda listen
Hmm, I should have listened

To wah mumma told me
To what my mother told me

Now I miss the old me…
Now I long for my previous self

Have you ever been blessed
Have you ever received blessings

But yuh still stressed?
Yet, you still feel anxious?

Doing better but yuh still can't invest
Despite improving, you still cannot invest

So you lose interest
Thus, you lose enthusiasm

Then yuh ingest
Then you consume

All the bad mind negative mindset
All the toxic and negative mindset

Don't fret… a so di ting set
Don't worry... that's just how things are

The next days ahead
The upcoming days

Are the best ones yet
Will be the most enjoyable so far

Can't let, nobody make you feel like less
Cannot allow anyone to make you feel inferior

Or ashame fi proclaim
Or be ashamed to declare

You are the greatest
That you are exceptional

I've been through so many tests
I have faced numerous challenges

Now mi walk with purpose inna every step
Now I walk with determination in every step

No second guess
No hesitation or doubt

And the ones who say them a real
And those who claim to be genuine

Dem a the fakest
They are the most deceitful

That's why mi big up mi own chest
That's why I take pride in myself

My dream big like a skyscraper
My dream is as vast as a skyscraper

Dem seh have patience but mi a nuh waiter
They say to have patience, but I am not a waiter

Or nuh doctor, more like an actor
Not a doctor, more like an actor

Make moves, collect the paper
Take action, earn money

Brush the haters off mi like this
Dismiss the haters effortlessly

Big up all mi real friend
Salute all my true friends

Who never would switch
Who would never betray

Stay dropping hits like wi just cyah miss
Consistently release successful music as if we can't fail

Cause we a di champion you never should diss!
Because we are the champions you should never disrespect!

...call me what you wish
...refer to me however you want

Still mi nah guh call it quits
Nevertheless, I won't give up

Cah di music make
Because the music motivates

People jump and twist
People dance with excitement

Dem a try a ting, but I was born for this
They try to imitate, but I was born to do this

When mi chune drop
When my song is released

Yuh girl a seh 'that's my shit'
Your girlfriend says, 'that's my favorite'

It's Paul2diAnthony
It's Paul2diAnthony

And let's face it, everybody won't like me
And let's admit it, not everyone will like me

But when I touch the mic
But when I take the microphone

I shine so brightly
I radiate so brightly

I don't know anybody like me!
I am unique, unlike anyone else!

I miss the old me
I long for the person I used to be

No matter weh dem try
Regardless of what they attempt

No negative can hold me
Negativity cannot restrain me

Yeah… I'm taking back my life now
Yes, I am reclaiming control over my life

I'm in control of me
I have full authority over myself

Mmmhmmm and I shoulda listen
Hmm, I should have listened

To wah mumma told me
To what my mother told me

Now I miss the old me…
Now I long for my previous self
