Justice

Well, right about now mi jus' want fi big up Fabian
Yuh done know, Ashton Barrett, di whole fam's house
Yuh done know, see, a bumbu
Haile Selassie I di first king

Cost of living keep getting so high
An' di youth-dem a suffer an' can't get no bly
Economical pressures have di people-dem a cry
An' there's no change in sight, for you nuh ride
Where di justice deh?
A where di justice deh?
Yes, woah-oy, listen

No plague, no pestilence, nor disaster
Could-a ever been victorious against King Rasta
Mi haffi wonder who-dem is an' a what-dem after
All these false judges an' all these false juror

Who take crafty counsel 'gainst Jah son an' daughter
Where people working so hard an' a get no broader
An' all di talk-dem a talk, it jus' pure disaster
But-a false government an' all these false leader
A false deacon an' all-a false preacher
A woe be unto dem dat a stray from culture
An' a eat up my people flesh like di vulture

Cost of living keep getting so high
An' di youth-dem a suffer an' can't get no bly
Economical pressures have di people-dem a cry
An' there's no change in sight, for you nuh ride

Yes, woah-oy, listen

From yuh have eyes, then yuh would-a see
If you have ears, then yuh would-a hear
Then yuh would-a love an' yuh would-a care
Would-a never doubt, nor no fear
From mi see di light, yuh got to do right
Defend your faith with all of your might
Pledge to do good whether day or night
Live up in di Father sight (Woah)
