[Verse 1]
Feel good
I ain't gonna lie to you
I don't know about you
In a prison or a hospital
Yeah, when I buy shit
My ting dem costly
I remember when I used to hustle in the flats
And the neighbours then had no love for me
Switch it up, now everything blessed
Hit the stage with the gyallies, say yeah yeah, yeah yeah
When them rise up against me
Me looking at them eyes and sing
[Chorus]
Destiny, can't touch my destiny
Them are try everything
Them are try take me life
But I won't let them get the best of me
Destiny, can't touch my destiny
They can take everything I have
They can take my life
They can't touch my destiny
[Verse 2]
You don't know, man a Ghaza thug
Man are slice up your head like a barber does
No, you no really really wan' start with us
'Cause we dangerous and hazardous
Skrr, beep beep when I'm parking up
California weed, man are sparking up
And I see my enemies, them charging up
'Cause we never smile when them try laugh with us
As a little youth it was hard enough
'Cause dem older guys, them were starving us
So me hustle till me start live marvellous
Roll deep like I'm driving a party bus
We was just a bunch of fuckin' foreigners
No one to trust, I know that they don't want me here
Came a long way from standing in the corridors
Dunking feds in the coroners
Hey
[Chorus]
Destiny, can't touch my destiny
Them are try everything
Them are try take me life
But I won't let them get the best of me
Destiny, can't touch my destiny
They can take everything I have
They can take my life
They can't touch my destiny
Hey
[Post-Chorus]
[Chorus]
Destiny, can't touch my destiny
Them are try everything
Them are try take me life
But I won't let them get the best of me
Destiny, can't touch my destiny
They can take everything I have
They can take my life
They can't touch my destiny
Hey
