Too much innocent life ah go down
Too much innocent youth ah go underground

(Sizzla)
Dem violence, negative dem
Yuh see di war is dem biggest business, then?

Di sheep go astray, I gwine switch dem
Mek dem know dem nuh fi diss then

Babylonians yuh nah go love da tune yah
Nah go love Selassie sun nor Him moon yah

Hey Babylon come mek I buh yuh with di fiyah
Dutty Vatican come mek I bun yuh with di fiyah
Hey Pentagon come mek I bun yuh with di fiyah
Hey Washington come I bun yuh with di fiyah

(Capleton)

Blaze man a blaze man a blaze dem hot
Burn man a burn man a burn dem hot
Bun dem war and fool fool combat
