Aww Babylon
Den how is it you get your food to eat
And yet you find it hard
To feed another youth that come up at your feet

Dem judge and dem jury just ah grin and ah grit
And all dem police and them soldier say dem really unfit
The sniper dem bring say him nah shoot and miss
The Black rights kingdom stand for equal rights and justice
Eh true human rights well ah government no miss

And dem ah go bring Bruce Golding fi make ah big devil switch

Nah follow the evil mama gonna spank you real quick
Well dash another fire pon John public
Me tell uno cease from uno war and wickedness
Inna fornication ink dem gun finger dem go dip
And ah chat bout dem ah voter hot wine dem ah sip

Illegal yes captives you know slave children and brought us down here
In Jamaica and all small islands of the Brittish West Indies into slavery
Onto this day say the most high Selassie I Jah Rastafari

Fi the arc of the covenant Babylon ah kill
They want Rasta thrown them no got no power nor will
They want dada crown mama pearl and jewel
I tell you say the sceptre shall not depart until
The golden globe with the simple earth fill
This man was born here prophecy dey fulfil
Stretch your hand to Ethiopia Mount Zion ill
You never get the win coulda never get it nil
And ah tell yuh dis ah lick down Babylon like a power drill
Well Pharoh them ya fire cyar chill
Repatriation Babylon me melt yuh will
