People a face it
Oh them a feel it, woi
Situation get out of control
Every day another black man head roll
My Jah what is this I'm beholding with my eyes
From the smallest, from 5 to 10 years old
Them saying them a shot alla dem cold
Oh Jah what is this I'm hearing, oh lord
I wanna know the whole truth of this
The root of this, oh why
How long will my people go on like this for no reason?
This is no time, and no season
This is no time, and no season
Tell me you will stand and fight
For our right
People just unite
It will be alright
Jah will give us the might
And shine a light

This thing is getting out of control
Every day another black man head roll
My Jah what is this I'm beholding with my eyes
To the smallest, from 5 to 10 years old
Ah say that them a shot alla dem cold
My Jah what is this I'm hearing, oh lord

I wanna know the whole root of this
The truth of this, yea
How long will my people go on like this for no reason?
This is no time, and no season
This is no time, and no season
Tell me you will stand and fight
For our right
All unite
It will be alright
Jah will give us the might
And he'll shine his light
Oh lord, oh lord

So many speech I've said
And still the poor no fed
It is are getting red
Them want instead
No more blood haffe shed
I'm telling you right now

Situation get out of control
Every day another black man head roll
My Jah what is this I'm beholding with my eyes
From the smallest, from 5 to 10 years old
See dem nah shelter and alla dem get cold
