Busy Signal - What If? Lyrics

What if when mi seh step out
Mi did a step back?
What if mi never smoke weed
And a smoke crack?
What if mi never master mi graph
Business lock
Wonder how dem gyal yah would a react
What if mi did a bleach fi turn brown caw mi black?
What if mi tattoo mi eye, mi face, mi neck, hand and back?
What if mi wi the type a person fi murder mi friend?
Because him barrow mi strap and nuh bring it back?

What if mi did a grab purse and a broke shop?
Police pull mi over and mi vehicle full a strap?
Big shoot out yo hear seh turf skull crack?
Simple mean a wouldn't me this pon the microphone a chat
What if wi never have selectors and distract?
Yo probably would a never hear this track
What if when mi seh watch out fi this?
Yo never watch out fi that
Mi get the blessing from the father up a top

You never know
What if your best friend turn your foe?
What if tomorrow morning Jamaica start si snow?
What if that's how the story go?
You never know

What if wa day dem never sell mi out to the cops?
What if mi never get six months and come back?
What if the thing set the next way
And the bwoy weh dis Konshens dead the next day?
What if mi stop DJ and talk bout mi war app?
What if mi follow some a dem fool yah chat crap?
What if tomorrow Ishawna find out seh her career it a go flop
And then a Foota Hype shi haffi link back?
What if jamaica never owed the IMF tax?
What if the whole place crime-free
And the violence stop?
What if JPS bill dem stop kill wi wid shock
And everybody get a raiser pay top up dem likkle cash?
What if tomorrow morning everybody stop smoke and drink
Nuh club, nuh party, nuh fun, what you think?
God a come, God a come fast as you wink
Dutty heart and wicked a go sink

You never know
What if your best friend turn your foe?
What if tomorrow morning Jamaica start si snow?
What if that's how the story go?
You never know
