Buju Banton

Close One Yesterday

One more day in the struggle

Have to get up and juggle

You done know, want a little sugar inna de pan

Me nah see fi trouble, no man

Oh oh oh

Said I had close one yesterday

Jah put an angel over me, be strong

Hold a firm meditation

One day things must get better, don't you go down

Keep your head above the water

Say, one day things must get better, be strong

Said I had close one yesterday

Jah put an angel over me, be strong

Hold a firm meditation

One day things must get better, don't you go down

Keep your head above the water

Say, one day things must get better, be strong

The rich is wise in his conceit

But the fool with over standing search him out

Poor man mourn, the rich riches increase

Be not grieved, riches are not forever

Envy not the oppressor choses none of his ways

Be not wise in his own eyes, only jah you must praise

Strive not with a man without cause

If he have done no harm, let by gone be by gone

Said I had close one yesterday

Jah put an angel over me, be strong

Hold a firm meditation

One day things must get better, don't you go down

Keep your head above the water

Say, one day things must get better, be strong

This nine to five is a joke

Compare to the pressure the minister say

The economy is getting better

Misleading the people

The mass still suffer on jah

Scarce benefit and spoils

Jah know that we feel it day
