The rich man's wealth is in the city
Destruction of the poor is his poverty
Destruction of your soul is vanity

Maxi Priest:
You can go if you wanna
You can stay if you like
You can do almost anything
But you don't run my life
I don't need you ultimatums
I can't deal with no stress
You don't run no part of me
I'm different from the rest

Only Rasta can liberate the people
Over hills and valleys too

Don't believe for a minute that they are with you
Jah free the people
Over hills and valleys too
Don't let them fool you
Don't believe for a minute, they don't like you

Hush baby hush

Natural stuff dash way the stone bruk-up the brush
Man well rough woman no stop request the wuk

Bedroom destruction woman you man a killa
Have fi give it up when she see the ragga ragga
Wicked on the trigger man is a good digger
Woman a wiggle jus a jiggle a cry you get bigga
Where have you been you jolly bad fellow
Instantly the woman she ketch asthma
Who tell the gal fi go unveil the arrow
Ambulance wouldn't come
Dem hafi send fi de barrow

Intro:
Crisis

Have every massive fraid
Buju Banton did tell yuh already

One man say, restore the peace by any means
Shoot first, then question your enemies
Look how the people been suffrin'
Before now, this a for even more
As they try to mediate between the rich and the poor
Them never used to visit such community
Them never insure them sa-fe-ty
Can you stop the love of the people
Where you know their every cry
Where they all have justice.

Chorus:

Chorus:
I am living while I am living to the father I will pray
Only he knows how we get through everyday
With all the hike in the price
Arm and leg we have to pay
While our leaders play
