Original lyrics

EN
I left my home and my family by the ocean Out on my own, to seek my fortune But there is no work to occupy these young hands So look out boy you're heading for the mainland (Chorus) What do you do? You can't make nothing out of nothing Everbody needs a start What do you do? You can't make nothing out of nothing Give my country back it's heart. Well, I was born on a St.John's street Where all my hopes could meet with defeat I hide my fear in higher education Now I am so smart I could rule this content-nation Chorus Now I'm alone but I'm working everyday I'm getting stoned and I'm blowing all my pay Just to survive I'll do whatever I can Now, I'm alive, but how can I be a real man? Chorus
