Too much wicked man deh 'bout ya oh me oh my
Me say the sky is the limit, so you try touch the sky
How much more body we a go discover
Have fi live together every brother and we sister
How much more live without bread and butter?
The youth them make them get big, what
Me say easy no youth, you love fi shoot
And now you can't sleep, you de a think 'bout the dead
Hear how me cry and give me a bly
Too much wicked man deh 'bout ya oh me oh my
And everyday another man a try pick dey fruit
How much more live without bread and butter?
Say how much more ghetto youth have fi suffer?
Mama say you brut, you living like a coot
Put your trust in the God now, Jah, Rastafari, Selassie
Take away him wallet with about twenty peso
Now you de behind the bar in a crisp stripe suit
How much more body we a go discover
How much more body we a go discover
A so your blood run when a shot lick your head
Put your trust in the God now, Jah, Rastafari, Selassie
Hear how me cry and give me a bly
Now you deh a prison a suck off, man flute
And yet still you wouldn't mind full me up the lead
And all me a warn is like me never say so

How much more body we a go discover
Bad company make the I take the wrong route
How much more body we a go discover

Thou shall not kill, neither blood must shed
And in the Bible it is written and so it should be said
