30 Million Lyrics

30 Million - Protoje

...

No, no, no, no, no, no way

You nuh see, it mad out deh?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no way

Ay, ay

Things just ain't the same, no mama

Son ah tun scammer, shell down Alabama

Youth them get caught

In the glitz and the glamour (what?)

Bricks and the hammers

Long clips full a ammo (boom, boom)

Everyday is a drama

Guard ring, body armor

Protect from everything except fi the karma (hmm)

Man nah try look to no sky fi no manna

Understandable, who can wait pon tomorrow

Or fi beg or fi borrow

That's the horrible truth too

Government cyaan find a thing fi the youths do (no)

Poverty no cute and you know that's the root

A three thousand fi apartment a Ruthven Avenue (heh)

Everyone I assume, want live comfortable too

Honest man look ah work, sent him youth dem go school

But in the place weh you scrеwed if you follow the rules

What ah the alternative you think somebody ago choose?

Because a thirty million fi a house up a Stony, yeah

Good ol' days

How we fi live under dem standard? You don't say

No, no way

Haffi militant, vigilant, haffi hol' it, hey

'Cause a no thirty million fi no house, none at all

How we fi survive? Wah a gwaan down a yard? (Boom)

A million is not a what it used to be (woop)

Farming used to power communities (woop)

A degree used to mean opportunity (woop)

Only thing man a read now a eulogy (boom)

Funeral parlor (parlor)

Say business is booming (booming)

School dem get empty (empty)

So, prison is looming (watch)

Molly consuming (yeah)

Dolly dem grooming (yeah)

Where do you run to? (Where?)

Like Lila in Blooming

But we haffi survive and we ah put up a fight

Cah life haffi live and me say things haffi buy

Cah money fi make and investments fi set

But even that under threat, financial sector a fret

I mean, what's that about?

Me see all Bolt make a sound (sound)

Can't believe the people wacky dip inna him account (watch ya)

Look pon money ah spend, European ah trend

Real estate recommend man haffi re-up again

Because a thirty million fi a house up a Stony, yeah

Good ol' days

How we fi live under dem standard? You don't say

No, no way

Haffi militant, vigilant, haffi hol' it, hey

'Cause a no thirty million fi no house, none at all

How we fi survive? Wah a gwaan down a yard?

Haha, okay

So

So, we do it now

So

Ah, so we do it, alright

So

This is the Jamaican situation

Interesting days to come

Me say a no thirty million, enuh

Me ah hope you really overstand me, you know

Me say a no thirty million, enuh

(Boom)
