Letra da Música The More I Excel de Dennis Brown

Why you wanna make me suffer, tell me
Can believe you wanna see me run screaming, my love
Why can't you be good to a brother, no way
Love has no color, yeah

Why you wanna hurt me bad, whoa Lord, yes
Why you wanna push me down, yeah
Why you wanna hurt me bad, whoa
Why you wanna bend me now, oh Lord

Now they say a cat has nine lives
You've killed me, yes you've killed me so many times
The more you try to hurt me
The more I'll excel just wait and see
Let me be, I need to be free

Why you wanna hurt me bad, whoa Lord, tell me
Why you wanna push me down, well now, yeah
Why you wanna hurt me bad, whoa Lord, yeah
Why you wanna push me down, whoa Lord, yeah

Whoa Lord...
Why you wanna hurt me bad
Tell me, tell me
Whoay, tell me, yeah
Why you wanna hurt me mad, see

I've heard a lot of pestilance inside(?) of bad you, oh yeah
Got a brand new look and your hair in use is vanity, oh yeah
Fail has taken a hold on me, oh
Can't believe my eyes, you really wanna see me bad

Why you wanna hurt me bad, tell me
Why you wanna push me down, whoa babe
Why you wanna bend me now, whoa Lord, yeah
Why you wanna hurt me bad, tell me
Why you wanna hurt me bad, whoa Lord, babe tell me
Why you wanna push me down, tell now, see

No man is perfect, oh Lord, well
He who is perfect claim him catch the first stone, yes
You see the money trying to hurt me
The morality you see, don't hurt me now, no no no

Why you wanna push me down, tell me yeah
Why you wanna hurt me now, whoa Lord
Why you wanna push me down, whoa Lord
