Yeah yeah
Woo yeah
Woo yeah, yeah
Yeah woo
Well in come the man called Mortimer
You better Overstand now
Overstand now
A no every smile a smile
Sometimes it takes a closer look to really realize
To see beneath the Jacks of many faces wearing smiles
If our visions were X-ray we'd see the evil in their eyes
Huh!
And a no every friend a friend
A nuff of them deh round but just a few are genuine
Connect yourself with Jah and you will feel their energies
Nuff want fi see you fall and woulda trade fi anything
But I tell you just be
Careful of the ones
The ones you call your friends
'Cause nuff of them a snake, dem filled with jealousy
And they will let you down
And keep an eye out for the ones you call your family
Dem laugh with you today, pretend them genuine
And they will let you down
No think them always have your interest at heart
And move like you no know say dem will sit down and plot
Nuff a them rather see you behind bars
Never get too comfortable, Pree dem from your eye corner
'Cause if you lapse them sell you out fi one burger
Imagine what them woulda do fi millions and billions
Smaller your circle a di better my brother
Tings a get so dread might haffi pree your own father
Careful of the ones
The ones you call your friends
'Cause nuff of them a snake, dem filled with jealousy
And they will let you down
And keep an eye out for the ones you call your family
Dem laugh with you today, pretend them genuine
And they will let you down
Eyes dem stay peel like an orange
Plus Jah deh pon mi side no need fi be worried
Rastaman a no fool no watch the grin
Might buss a little laugh that no mean me not watching you
I man been burnt too many times
Imagine how it hurt when you trust them till you blind
I a tell you the truth people no nice
If a that you did a pree beg you think that over twice
And just be
Careful of the ones
The ones you call your friends
'Cause nuff of them a snake, dem filled with jealousy
And they will let you down
And keep an eye out for the ones you call your family
Dem laugh with you today, pretend them genuine
And they will let you down
