Yo, me tell dem caution
When you see lion 'pon patrol
We no kin teet, you could a be the richest also
With your fortune, your money, your platinum an' gold
Cyaan buy people life, you cyaan save people soul
Slaughter, when bwoy a stop the cash flow
An' a live comfortable while resentment a grow
Yo, a torture, the less fortunate a die slow
How you fi reap wealth, when a bare death you sow
So the pauper, doesn't have a cash in billfold
An' cyaan buy the knowledge weh the rich man own
Nor look after his family or his humble household
What happen when him get up and decide fi roll
With the scorcher, real fire torch
Real fire sparker, when the fire start
Well not even water weh quench when the river dem flow
Could a out this ya fire when it bun and start glow
Well, a weh dem would a do, hungry belly stop fear
An' decide fi tek it from all who nah share
An' one man pull up and kick off anywhere
Cah hungry no business a who life a spare
A weh dem would a do hunger keep conference
An' mek criminal and police tun fren
And decide fi tek it from all who nah sen'
(Caution, caution, caution..)
Yo, me tell dem warning
Listen up if you have ears to hear
You no mek hungry belly turn inna war engineer
Man a trespass and man a overcome and get there
When the dutty get tuff and everything is despair
Warning, talk up if you have mouth fi talk
An' nah speak up on ghetto youth dem behalf
Cah dem a play like a dummy and dem nah pay the staff
An' a mek the most noise, dem hear dem front door kickoff
Warning, look out all who have eyes to see
An' still a play blind like injustice no real
'Memba hungry no have mercy 'pon bakklefield
Man will eat your food faster than ten Navy SEAL
So caution, have your white collar extortion
You dirty politician and your tricks dem
A turn the youth dem inna orphan
Smoke the cigar and a laugh an'
Since you're smart answer this
Yo
Well, a weh dem would a do, hungry belly stop fear
An' decide fi tek it from all who nah share
An' one man pull up and kick off anywhere
Cah hungry no business a who life a spare
A weh dem would a do hunger keep conference
An' mek criminal and police tun fren
And decide fi tek it from all who nah sen'
(Caution, caution)
Yo, me tell dem action, always louder than words
An no school nah build out a the money transfer
You're too greedy, you wouldn't even lef' a one third
Fi the needy, you bend up and gadda like herd
Option, scarce when it come on to job
Man cyaan find no work until dem go road go rob
You a try save face, but it done gone bad
It's a gamble dem life fi raise dem living standard
An' that's a sign that unless you being kind
One day you may find that you cannot stop the crime
Your system designed that, stony is the hill dem cyaan climb
Even if dem work a lifetime
Dem cyaan gain no traction, cyaan find no satisfaction
Election is just a distraction
Write it inna caption, caution, warning to all
Who think hunger cyaan jump your wall
Yo
Well, a weh dem would a do, hungry belly stop fear
An' decide fi tek it from all who nah share
An' one man pull up and kick off anywhere
Cah hungry no business a who life a spare
A weh dem would a do hunger keep conference
An' mek criminal and police tun fren
And decide fi tek it from all who nah sen'
(Caution, caution, caution..)
