[Intro: Courtney Melody]
Wooow

[Hook 1: Courtney Melody]

Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty we possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to let it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how it used to be

[Hook 2: Ninja Man]

Him turn out to be a mason man

Or him might turn out be a ram dance man
Because
Inna the time of old when
When mi mother did young and bold
Only two kids mi mother could control
Because
She treat we sweet and treat we nice
Oh yeah, we lived like we living in paradise and
When we a youth, say, we nuh fool
We mother send we go to good school
From mi was one mi go a basic school
Then from deh so mi go a primary school
Left primary, go a secondary school
Now mi hitch up inna high school
Raggamuffin business a weh mi rule
Nobody can't come take me fi fool

[Hook 2: Ninja Man]
Send fi your protection, you nuh ready fi baby, eeh hee

[Outro: Courtney Melody]
I knowww
That's why I knowww
