Intro
Growing up as a child, I always told myself
"Life is hard, so I have to change it."
Yeah... mi tell myself that
Chorus
(Sung with powerful, earnest conviction)
Mi have to win, mi have to win!
Mi have to win, mi have to win!
Mi grow poor, mi never have much
But mi never fall then, so mi have to rise now!
Mi have to win, mi have to win!
Mi have to win, mi have to win!
Mi grow poor, mi never have much
But mi never fall then, so mi have to rise!
Verse 2
Nuh need fi pretend, mi real to mi friends
See the blessings weh mi get? Mi give thanks for them!
Bought a new ride for the family—that's a message I send!
From the other side of the fence, now mi life ascend!
Tied up all the loose ends, now the good times begin!
Every moment is a treasure, hope the time no end!
Nuh take life for granted, not a single minute
From the young ones to the elders, put the goodness in it!
See the beauty in the struggle, see the lesson in the pain
Every step weh mi take now, mi walking in purpose and taking planes!
Them try fi block mi joy, but it's here to stay
So now mi enjoy life every minute of the day!
Chorus
Mi have to win, mi have to win!
Mi have to win, mi have to win!
Mi grow poor, mi never have much
But mi never fall then, so mi have to rise now!
Mi have to win, mi have to win!
Mi have to win, mi have to win!
Mi grow poor, mi never have much
But mi never fall then, so mi have to rise!
Bridge
(Sung with deep emotion and warmth)
Look how far we come, through the darkest nights
Now every morning wake up, feel the golden lights
The struggle made me stronger, taught me how to fight!
So now that we are winning, everything feels right!
Every breath a blessing... every day is bright!
Outro
Yeah, mi love this life now!
Enjoying every moment!
From the struggle to prosperity!
We winning! We winning!
Yeah!
We're winning!
Oh, yeah!
We're rising now!
Every day is bright!
We're winning!
