Let moses divide the sea
And not the russian federation
Hey unno hear me?
Dem all a try fi take over we
Divide and conquer every nation
Dem wish life no pretty
I don't wish dat
Deh inna we town inna we city
I don't wish dat
All citizen sickly
I don't wish dat
Is dat all up to we licking
How could I know dat?

Dem say money above all
But I don't say dat
Dem do everything at all
I don't say dat
Deh inna we heart inna we soul
We don't say dat
Gwaan tell di youth seh!
Big city and big town
Big pressure upon the ground
Taking over

Green money get we down
Green money pon di throne
Taking over
So cover rasta taking over
Run for cover me say rasta taking over
Divide di sea, divide di people
Weh di destination?
Tearing likkle by likkle
What a desperation
And from di blood of all di people
Money run up to your throne
Gwaan so gwaan so dem do wrong

Dem wear di crown dem have no limit
Dem wish whole heap a people
A go imitate dem image
But let me tell em somth'n
If dem just wear di crown
I am di one weh a go rise pon di ground

Big city and big town
Big pressure pon the ground, taking over
Green paper get we down
Green paper pon di throne, taking over
So cover rasta taking over
Run fa cover me say rasta taking over
