Enemy

Stepping on the enemy
Try fi take mi energy
You can't thief the recipe, no
Seeing through the frenemies
Dem search for remedy
When there's no therapy
Oh Lord, why dem try fi take the crown, my crown?
Mi memba when I was a likkle pickeney
Mommy show me dem and bare iniquity (she say)
Life back then never, pretty-ty
Ah nuff dem say love, but die wickedly
What's the remedy for the frenemies?
Why we can't agree just fi disagree?
Out of many people, one melody
So, tell me, why you're tryna put me down?
Stepping on the enemy
Try fi take mi energy
You can't thief the recipe, no
Seeing through the frenemies
Dem search for remedy
When there's no therapy
Oh Lord, why dem try fi take the crown, my crown?
Through the struggles and the troubles no one give you bly
They knock we down, they knock we up without reason or rhyme (no bly)
End up in a predicament get on your knees and pray
All this time killing each others only brought dismay
Babylon will turn you fool
Don't let them use you like a tool
Lessons come from heartache not only school
Tell me, why you tryna put me down?
Stepping on the enemy
Try fi take mi energy
You can't thief the recipe, no
Seeing through the frenemies
Dem search for remedy (no, no no, no)
When there's no therapy (keep on going on)
Oh Lord, why dem try fi take the crown, my crown?
