When Damian was only 2 years old, his father Bob Marley died and he was raised by his mother. His musical instincts were too much deep-rooted in his genes. So at the tender age of 13, he took up singing.

The song

The song sings about Bob making it out of the Ghetto. The video features Damian and his son in a mansion by the sea, most people’s dream home.

“Daddy made it out
Out of the ghetto
Believe in your dreams
Believe you and me, don’t let go
We’re living it up
Having a good time baby
I was born uptown of the ghetto dream
Now don’t be lazy”
