I prayed one too many times, now my voice gone now
Everybody 'round me changing now
Used to show me love, so why they hating now?
Used to move steady, but they shaking now
Is it all the songs I been singing?
Is it 'cah the chain weh a bling, yeh?
The money never change me, but it's changing you
Is it true mi shine because I'm blinding you?

But ah, I shoulda listened, mama
You said my life would get dark
Never forget, you a star
Ah, I shoulda listened, mama
Told me my life would get dark
Never forget, you a star

I prayed one too many times, now my voice gone now
Can't forget where me born and me grow
Back inna the days a share beds pon the road
Now dem haffi pay me twenty bags fi a show
Why dem haffi envy me fi mine?
See dem nuh like fi see me chain a shine
Dem woulda love me live a life a crime
Tell me seh we still nuh reach, we prime

Ah, I shoulda listened, mama
You said my life would get dark
Never forget, man a star
Ah, I shoulda listened, mama
You said my life would get dark
Never forget, you a star

Me nah stop, nah surrender, bun dem agenda
Hear seh dem a fassy, dem a fake, dem a pretender
Any violation double back to the sender
Bridgetown lock down any place weh we enter
Mind weh you a step and see the signs
Memba a nuh the weed give them red eye
Nowadays me see the blind a lead the blind

See dem sell dem soul fi dolla sign
But ah, I shoulda listened, mama
You said my life would get dark
Never forget, you a star
Ah, I shoulda listened, mama
You said my life would get dark
Never forget, you a star

Ah
