[Intro]
Nana, nana, nana, na, na
Woah ooh ooh woah
Nana, nana, nana, na, na
[Verse 1]
A word from the wise, don't try to make life on your own
Remember that Jah Jah is by your side
For I was a soul who lost, and my life was in dismay
For among evil forces in which I came
Mmm
Guns and ammunition were my chosen way of life
With God fearing people I choose to strive
For all of the lives that are taken, they can never be replaced
But still Jah Jah chose to remember my face
[Chorus]
Though I never lived like He wanted, I'm still mindful of what He taught me
So, now I beg and plea, I'm on my bended knees
'Cause, Father, you rescued me
I've got the scars to show I barely made it along life's road
'Cause when my life got dark, He was the only spark
He was the light at the end of the road
[Verse 2]
When I was a young boy growing up in August Town
We ate from the same pot, we were I-threns all around
From corner to color and corner
From Rockers to Jungle Kentyre
Rising to dreadhieghts and river all around
And then the football ground became my battlefield
And my life seemed so surreal
People were falling all around, but Jah helped me to stand my ground
Only Jah, only Jah could've helped me to stand my ground
[Chorus]
Though I never lived like He wanted, I was mindful of what He taught me
So, now I beg and plea, I'm on my bended knees
'Cause, Father, you rescued me
And I've got the scars to show, barely made it along life's road
'Cause when my life got dark, He was the only spark
The light at the end of the road
[Interlude]
Oh Oh
Never lived to please Him
I never lived like I should
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Father, you rescued me!
Oh yeah, oh yeah
[Verse 3]
I've lived and I've learnt, I've made mistakes along the way
Now, I beg for forgiveness each day as I try to pray
So, take it from me, son, you can change the world today
And I'm living proof, living proof that crime doesn't pay
[Chorus]
For I never lived like He wanted, I was mindful of what He taught me
So, now I beg and plea, I'm on my bended knees
'Cause, Father, He rescued me
And I've got the scars to show I barely made it along life's road
'Cause when my life got dark, He was the only spark
The light at the end of the road
I never lived like He wanted, I was mindful of what He taught me
So, now I beg and plea, I'm on my bended knees
'Cause, Father, you rescued me
And I've got the scars to show, I barely made it along life's road
'Cause when my life got dark, He was the only spark
The light at the end of the road
Though I never lived like He wanted, I was mindful of what He taught me
I'm on my bended knees, I asked the Father, "Please"
Father, you rescued me!
And I've got the scars to show, I barely made it along life's road
As my life got dark, He was the only spark
The light at the end of the road
[Outro]
I never lived, never lived, I never lived the way He wanted me to
I never lived...
Lord, I tell you!
Though I'm crossing my religion
Scars to show...
