Jah Cure – Street Kings lyrics
[Intro: Junior Reid]
Red hot yow
Ay yai yai yay
Ay yai yai yai
Woaaah
Keep it burning

[Chorus]
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live

[Verse 1: Jah Cure]
Twelve o'clock on di corner dem planters still hustling to survive
50 bags try to make some papers juggling grabbas on di side, yeah
Police and t'ief, lion conquer di beast
Jah Jah know di streets are burning
So di yutes dem have to eat

[Chorus]
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live

[Verse 2: Yami Bolo and Junior Reid]
Careful of life in a fast lane
Don't get caught in a cash game
I see you wasting your life gain
Smoke it away in the ashtray

[?] downtown
Don't have to ask when it goes down
I stand for yute get t'row down
It's like a showdown
The whole world has become a prison
'cause my people suffer for no reason
We been through great tribulation
Now the fight is for the liberation
Street kings rule di streets wit' dominion
Overcome di struggle let it be your inspiration
So many children face starvation
Jah a' di hope for di human salvation
Ay yai yai yay
Ay yai yai yai
Ay yai yai yay
Freedom has a price you pay

[Chorus]
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live

[Verse 3: Capleton]
Bwoy live yuh life and live it positive
Speak di truth and speak it ever till it's [?]
Don't let dem take yuh for a ride and [?]
Or else yuh nah go survive and that's so bad it is
Remember what yuh sow yuh gonna reap, yeah
Remember yuh haffi t'ink before yuh speak, yeah
And practice what yuh preach
And look before you leap
And never ever let your [?] in di street

[Chorus]
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
You live the life you love
You love the life you live
