Shawn Storm - Poverty

[Intro]
Money a me friend, money a me friend
Yo

When you have a friend weh name poverty
You haffi cut it off, dawg

Me and poverty no friend no longer
Me and poverty no friend no longer
So a money a me friend, money a me friend
Yo

[Verse 1]
Me just cut off one a me friend
The one weh love borrow and never can lend
Him mek white squall box me down flat a Grants Pen
And hungry a kick from when
Sake a that friend my life dry skin
Me used to beg weed, man couldn't buy blem
Me couldn't buy a chain with no pretty fly gem
Every day get worst, but me never try hang
Waan some new friend now
