Bun down di system
Keep di fire burning
Teach di youths what dem need to be learning
Dun out di goverment see what dem earning
Make ya heads start turning (go so well)
Bun down di system
Keep di fire burning
Teach di youths what dem need to be learning
Bun down di goverment
Keep di fire blazing
Whole world gone crazy
Take a lickle look inna di daily news paper
Every weekend di crime rate a inflate
Why dem get choke and di gal dem get rape
Dem only love dem green paper
That's why dem nuh have no heart and no conscience
Dem a deal with badness and a pure nonsense
Killing one another like it is a contest
Why dem can't let jah jah bless?
Bun down di system
Keep di fire burning
Teach di youths what dem need to be learning
Dun out di goverment see what dem earning
Make ya heads start turning (go so well)
Bun down di system
Keep di fire burning
Teach di youths what dem need to be learning
Bun down di goverment
Keep di fire blazing
Whole world gone crazy
Why dem ago terrorise, why dem ago victimise
When dem gonna realise your life you need to analyse
When you need to make a choice, listen to the father voice
What you do and call di people dem strive
Robbing and you're stealing and chopping on your dealing
When you outta road you disrespect the ghetto youths' feeling
Weapons and your drugs overflowing to the ceiling
Working fi di devil, he dun you as a demon
Sos, somebody trigger di alarm fi distress
What happened to bermuda my land it's a mess
Corruption and violence and war make we vex
Please jah jah bless tell dem
Sos, somebody trigger di alarm fi distress
What happened to bermuda my land it's a mess
Corruption and violence and war make we vex
Please jah jah bless
Bun down di system
Keep di fire burning
Teach di youths what dem need to be learning
Dun out di goverment see what dem earning
Make ya heads start turning (go so well)
Bun down di system
Keep di fire burning
Teach di youths what dem need to be learning
Bun down di goverment
Keep di fire blazing
Whole world gone crazy
Take a lickle look inna di daily news paper
Every weekend di crime rate a inflate
Why dem get choke and di gal dem get rape
Dem only love dem green paper
That's why dem nuh have no heart and no conscience
Dem a deal with badness and a pure nonsense
Killing one another like it is a contest
Why dem can't let jah jah bless?
Sos, somebody trigger di alarm fi distress
What happened to bermuda my land it's a mess
Corruption and violence and war make we vex
Please jah jah bless tell dem
Sos, somebody trigger di alarm fi distress
What happened to bermuda my land it's a mess
