No, I ain't gonna turn back, I ain't gonna turn back, I ain't gonna turn back
I said a race is not for the swift, but a who can enjoy it
No, a race is not for the swift, but a who can enjoy it
No, I'm moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
No, I'm moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
No, now I'm climbing on the ladder, I ain't gonna look back my brother
Now I'm climbing on the ladder, giving thanks and praise to Jah Jah
Moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
No, moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
Now, things at my past I just won't forget
Now, things at my past I just don't forget
No, I'm moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
No, I'm moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
So, hey, when I was down there on the floor
I used to eat a lot of chicken but
More time clean up this messy part
Things in the ghetto better when not
So, I'm moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
No, I'm moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
So, the race is not for the sweet
But the zoo can enjoy it
The race is not for the sweet
But the zoo can enjoy it
So, in this time, you've got to control
In this time, don't be anxious
No, I'm moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
No, I'm moving to the top and I ain't gonna turn back
