[Intro]
Okay, Rvssian
You know we might pray for a little bit of vanity
But you know we nah lef' out we friends and we family

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I was not born to stay poor
No, no, no, no, no, noo
And I don't want to live like this no more
No, no, no, no, no

[Chorus]
So on my knees today, Lord I pray
Where there's a will, there's a way
Lord, you can see
My mind is clean and my heart is pure
I've seen you open many doors
Keep open one for me and my family, oh yes

[Verse 1]
Oh, Lord, I know I won't get off my knees
And everything I ask for will be granted
But while I'm working, protect me from the enemies
They wanna see me stranded
Dem waan' me tan inna the gutter
Dem no waan' me mama eat a proper supper
You're my sword and shield
My blessings me a go for, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I was not born to stay poor
No, no, no, no, no, noo
And I don't want to live like this no more
No, no, no, no, no

[Chorus]
So on my knees today, Lord I pray
Where there's a will, there's a way
Lord, you can see
My mind is clean and my heart is pure
I've seen you open many doors
Keep open one for me and my family, oh yes

[Verse 2]
Foreign cars and a house on the hill
With a nice likkle pool fi go chill
And a loyal girl by my side forever
I want it all, my mama deserve the best
So you know I couldn't settle for less
They say life is good, I want mine to be better, better, ah

[Outro]
'Cause I was not born to stay poor
No, no, no, no, no, noo..
