Haha

All now Gaza stand tall and still a make history show
All now some boy say dem bad and can't defeat we though
All now me no take disrespect, and a so me grow
Me still a live by that law, badman no take box pon jaw

Me no join thump inna mouth or box pon lip
Badman no wear lipstick
Some boy a chat up dem mouth like Jade pon Zip
See me and rush my clique
Mi link dem bidg, and dutty, and stink like shh
Try 'memba who you a diss
Defend we 'selves, that UIM thugs practice
So bad, we no damn actress
'Memba this
Box down, we no play that game
Can't program no thugs from Spain
Skull a burn like Iraq inna war
So you know say Pimpin is sick to the brain
We no diss, UIM a the name
A bright light one ago take every blame
We no take violation a road
Real badman don't shame

All now Gaza stand tall and still a make history show
All now some boy say dem bad and can't defeat we though
All now me no take disrespect, and a so me grow
Me still a live by that law, badman no take box pon jaw

No make me haffi put on mi Clarks and mi bandana
You! You ago become a damn goner
Mi have ting sing sweet like Etana
Badman no kick-kick like Katana
Jamie, a we set the ting on yah
We nah take off no boy pajama
No bother feel we a greet with kisses and
Hugs when we roll out inna the Grand Vitara
Dinearo, make sure you have the ting near you
We ago show some priest how this thing here go
Me have a ting weh me walk with,
Take 'way your three points, make some boy haffi play zero
Simma carry a kings anyweh me a go
If you diss me a church, then a deh me a go
Gaza Slim make it sing, like bees it a sing
If you start something you can't win here so
Anju Blaxx

All now Gaza stand tall and still a make history show
All now some boy say dem bad and can't defeat we though
All now me no take disrespect, and a so me grow
Me still a live by that law, badman no take box pon jaw

Me no join thump inna mouth or box pon lip
Badman no wear lipstick
Some boy a chat up dem mouth like Jade pon Zip
See me and rush my clique
Mi link dem bidg, and dutty, and stink like shh
Try 'memba who you a diss
Defend we 'selves, that UIM thugs practice
So bad, we no damn actress
