But what Caesar doin' for me an' you?

From every angle that I see
My people, you're meeting hell]

[So brothers have turned to crime
So they die from time to time]
Dem no stop die.
[We'd like to ask you leaders
What have you got in mind?]
The people dem a fool, an' dem a half idiot

Dem a fool, an' dem a half idiot
Dem no wan' fi demonstrate, an' mek the food price drop
Dem a fool, an' dem a half idiot

'undred dollar

Uh-mm
[But I see the fire spreading, it's getting hotter and hot] red hot!
[The haves will want to be
In the shoes of the have not]
Dem a tun fat cat!
[If the sign is on your door then you will be safe for sure
But if you are in pretence you're on the wrong side of the fence]
Me seh:
The youth dem nowadays a dead fi hungry

The people fi hold the Man strict, an' mek the food price drop
Dem mus' be fool, dem mus' be half idiot

[Minority who sits on top just raise themselves the best]
[But I see the fire spreading, it's getting hotter and hot] red hot!
[The haves will want to be
In the shoes of the have nots]
Selassie I know
[If the sign is on your door then you will be safe for sure] eeheh!
