Lyrics
In the dark
When I lay down at night, I feel the fight
In my heart and I was born to win before me leave this earth
I'm gonna make my mark
A soldier might die but we never going kneel yo
Forever play my part
Forever brave at heart
Dem a wonder how mi live like me see death a me door (brrr)
Put me name inna the stars, go—getter fi sure
Me get it and going for more cah we nuh deh ya fi snore
Me deh yah so fi set a legacy like never before
Tell me daughter, tell me son seh dem will never see poor
Never seh quit me hold it when me deh pon di floor
Deh pon me last and still a smile
And now man level the score
Dis a God a work me see the signs but heaven no sure
Di devil so real and anytime the blessing a pour
A that hurt dem to the core, dem want you flesh fi a bore
You see bravery, you see courage, you nuh get it a store
Yeah me fail but me nuh worry cah me deh a di door
And mi knock til every fucking finger lay a fi sore
Until we lift up off the ground get the bread and go tour
Mi bredda nuh tief me sister dem a treasure no whore
Leggo we please, yeah we want better fi sure
In the dark
When I lay down at night, I feel the fight
In my heart and I was born to win before me leave this earth
I'm gonna make my mark
A soldier might die but we never going kneel, yo
Forever play my part
Forever brave at heart
Fire inna mi eyes, the ice in a mi chest
Life a mek mommy fret
But we a the solidest, to street we nuh inadequate
With Jah me step
All when dem try fi put powder in a mi crep
Pon di battlefield me deh wit blood a mix inna mi sweat
How you fi believe in a everything but not yuh self
No watch the light a Half Way Tree a you a stop yuh self
Me gun and me prayer a who seh dat nuh help
The better the victory harder the battle get
In the dark, them think me lost
Snake in the grass, dem can't glimpse mi Clarks
Me walk with the Lord
Beretta deh pon me belly if things kick off
Eyes full a tears but we hardly bawl
If a war fi gwaan, the soldier might die but we never going kneel yo
Never raise up soft, me a fi play mi part

In the dark
When I lay down at night, I feel the fight
In my heart and I was born to win before me leave this earth
I'm gonna make my mark
A soldier might die but we never going kneel, no
Never going kneel
Forever brave at heart
Just fi mek it fi put food inna my yard
Why Lord? Man out ya like wild dog
Try every likkle ting fi get the coil broad
And every likkle ting you know them fight hard
Father God a when you a go play my card
Jah know, you keep me life guard
Show me the light cah me nuh like fraud
Sometime me feel mi ask fi too much
Jah Jah yah me only strength
Me nuh know how fi vent to people yeah they going pretend
Me going hard until me bone collapse me story end
Glory dem nuh want fi see but dem nuh know me when
The door dem never open when me clothes dem never boasy
The show dem never full up long before me get the trophy
Focus a that me know fi watch the road and listen closely
Me grow fi murder bills and bring in mama grocery (yeah)
In the dark
When I lay down at night, I feel the pain
In my heart and I was born to win before me leave this earth
I'm gonna make my mark
A soldier might die but we never going kneel no way
No way
Forever brave at heart
Forever brave at heart
I was born fi win before me leave this earth
Soldier might die
Never going kneel, no
Cause i was born to win before me leave
