Excerpts from the lyrics:
“Every morning mi pray and mi do what is right
Day in and day out mi haffi put up a fight
All when mi cyan see and not a hope is in sight
Di darkness and di sadness from mawning til night
Death count ah rise so mi haffi stay strong
Dem seh fi stay safe and gwan hold ah lockdown
But mi haffi thank God she mi still deh around”

LYRICS
I say its just di blessings round me
All about the blessings on me
The mighty father guide me truly
No matter how di heathen surround me
I say its just di blessings round me
The abundance of mercy daily
Mi haffi stay strong though it nuh easy
Lawd watch over mi life and mi family
Every morning mi pray and mi do what is right
Day in day out mi haffi put up a fight
All when mi cyan see, and not ah hope is in sight
Di darkness and di sadness from mawning til night
Death count ah rise, so mi haffi stay strong
Dem seh fi stay safe; and gwan hold ah lockdown
Every other day is ah different countdown
But fi haffi thank god seh mi still deh around
As we watch di news; ah bag ah new infection
I c u beds gone inna vast portion
Daily records of hospita lization
The little country dem reach inna di millions
Planes dem grounded and we caan fly away
Church nah keep; social distance set ah way
Mi mumma pon har knees; daily she haffi pray
And ask fadda god fi guide mi steps all the way
Mi wake up this morning with a good intention
Tell miself fi keep ah positive vibration
Di government currupted try fi fool di nation
Ah try fi kill di yutes with dem vaccination
As long as i mi live mi haffi be thankful
Mi look inna mi fridge and mi cupboard dem full
Blessings overflowing like mi live ah hollywood
Big up mi family inna st e and norwood
I say its just di blessings round me
All about the blessings on me
The mighty father guide me truly
No matter how di heathen surround me
I say its just di blessings round me
Ah new year fi good life prosperity
Help mi forgive di badmind and enemy
Mi beg yuh from mi heart lawd sincerely
