Life choices, true sacrifices
So many voices accept when there is crisis
The lifestyle, the struggles and vices
The entire cake, or you want the slices
Secret dealings, major surprises
Slow to the top, or meteoric rising
A real hood chick, or one that does tidings
Rolling, you hear that
Allow me to think for myself
Too important to leave that to anyone else, yeah-ah
Allow I to think for I man self, yeah
Can't leave that to anyone else
No
Can't leave that to anyone else
Can't leave that to anyone else
Decision making rather breathtaking
Meanwhile you're climbing, stand firm on your faith
Stressful relation can be heartbreaking
Stumbling blocks will be in your way
Lock the door on all outside influence
Things some boy a pree, when it don't really make sense
Too much bitches make you end up in an entanglement
Keep your eyes on the prize and not the heathens
Allow I to think for myself, yeah-ah
Too important to leave that to anyone else, no, oh
Allow I to think for I man self, yeah
Can't leave that to anyone else
Alright
Something you gonna rise, something you fall
Some are just idiots who can't think at all
And if you follow them you stall
Keep your eyes on the prize and your foot on the ball
Tuning to Buju Banton, move and roam your dancehall
Make a tell you what a going on
Keep you mind firm, youths stand tall
Don't let them make you put your back again that wall
Allow me to think for myself, eh
Too important to leave to anyone else, yeah-ah
Allow I to think for I man self, yeah
Can't leave that to anyone else
No
Can't leave that to anyone else
Can't leave that to anyone else
