Too much innocent life ah go down |

Di sheep go astray, I gwine switch dem |
Mek dem know dem nuh fi diss then |
Chorus x2 (Sizzla) |
Babylonians yuh nah go love da tune yah |
Nah go love Selassie sun nor Him moon yah |
Dem nuh love fi see when di fruit trees all bloom |

Hey Pentagon come mek I bun yuh with di fiyah |
Hey Washington come I bun yuh with di fiyah |
