Lyrics
(One general inna di yard)
(Me said ah one general inna di yard) higher the one
(Ah one general inna di yard)
(Me said ah one general inna di yard) holy, well
1972, witness the birth of a great
Callaloo Bed Riverton, Seaview that a me place
Drop mi first verse at the age of twenty-one
Dub Fi Dub, it did a bang, but Copper Shot was the bomb
Now the world start here me, radio start play me
Music start pay me, new gyal start hail me
So don't compare me, I'm on another level
Gwan go circle 'round ah Jammy's, Uncle T, and King will tell you seh
Ah one General inna di yard (Lord ah mercy)
Me say ah one General inna di yard (that's right)
Ah one General inna di yard
Me say ah one General inna di yard (okay)
Ah one General inna di yard
Me say ah one General inna di yard
Ah one General inna di yard
Me say ah one General inna di yard
Well, '93 di biggest crash
People dead, so don't forgot
Warlord rise to the top, from mi buss' me never flop
Me still ah rise me never drop
You lose your girl, me find the spot
If she wet, I'll find a mop
Hey, me tough like turtle back
Me put the ghetto pon mi back
Then put the ghetto pon the map
Me reach where me put mi hat
Me set mi goals then go fi dat
Own di lane, me own di track
Superbowl when me go rock
Platinum me get the plaque
No Doubt deh pon di track
Awards weh me collect, donations weh me mek
Bounty foundation, give back to the less
Fortunate, nuff applaud mi get from the people dem
Who set di blueprint as ghetto architect
Fi nuff yute me pave the way
Weh me do, dem can't repay me
Not even likkle respect fi di ad weh me play
Hey some bite di hand weh feed dem, but me nah feel no way
But dem dun know seh at di end of the day ah jus
One General inna di yard (I told dem)
Me say ah one General inna di yard (now I gotta scold dem)
