Bootstraps

David Hinds

Forward ever

Backward never

Stick together

And last forever

The race is not for the swift but

For those who endure

We've been tried and tested

And know the score

So pick up your bootstraps and backside

We moving forward no backslide

Wow now, wow now

Stop your fighting back away back biting

Let's unite now

Not dividing

These are things that I can't stand

Says we're acting like crabs in a can now

Nuff a fe we youth dem turn to

Drugs and crime

Come lets save the rest cause we are

Loosing time now

CHORUS

So pick up your bootstraps and backside

We moving forward no backslide

We moving forward

We moving forward Heh!

We moving forward no backslide

Wow now, Wow now

So pick up your bootstraps and backside

We moving forward no backslide

Are you ready for this message

Seize the time to be progressive

Take you stance now and be counted

It's now or never

Blessed are those who are struggling

In a JAH name

Iniquity workers bow their

Heads in shame yeh

So pick up your bootstraps and backside

We moving forward no backslide

We moving forward

We moving forward Heh

We moving forward no backslide

Wow now, Wow now
