When you look in a mi face
Tell mi fi you see mi pain
Tell mi if you see mi sunny days

Tell mi fi you see why mi haffi complain

Woman and child a get rape mi nuh like it
Jam-Down gone to the dawgs mi nuh like it

Tell mi if Cherry Garden and Riverton City a the same
If you see green grass or you see blood stain
You see barber green road or dirt lane
Tell mi if you see happiness or you see pain
Man a wait pon pipe or you see water tank
Man a throw partner or dem a go a bank
A nuh bleach when you see mi mouth white like chalk
Dog dem a hungry till dem cyaa even bark
