Steel Pulse – Bootstraps lyrics
David Hinds
Forward ever
Backward never
Stick together
And last forever
The race is not for the swift but
For those who endure
We've been tried and tested
And know the score
CHORUS
So pick up your bootstraps and backside
We moving forward no backslide
Wow now, wow now
Stop your fighting back away back biting
Let's unite now
Not dividing
These are things that I can't stand
Says we're acting like crabs in a can now
Nuff a fe we youth dem turn to
Drugs and crime
Come lets save the rest cause we are
Loosing time now
CHORUS
So pick up your bootstraps and backside
We moving forward no backslide
We moving forward
We moving forward Heh!
We moving forward no backslide
Wow now, Wow now
REBEL RAP
CHORUS
So pick up your bootstraps and backside
We moving forward no backslide
Are you ready for this message
Seize the time to be progressive
Take you stance now and be counted
It's now or never
Blessed are those who are struggling
In a JAH name
Iniquity workers bow their
Heads in shame yeh
CHORUS
So pick up your bootstraps and backside
We moving forward no backslide
We moving forward
We moving forward Heh
We moving forward no backslide
Wow now, Wow now
