Dem Ago Burn Up
Yuh nuh hear it
Cali P and the King of fire
Four corners of the world
Tell dem seh wi cyaan cool (hahahahaha)
Keep it burning, red hot, yeah
Dem a burn, dem a burn
Like dem nuh learn, nowhere fi turn
Babylon is burning down
Babylon is burning down, yow, Cali P
Dis is a anthem fi di real ghetto youth outta street
Who feels it knows, life hard like concrete
Straight up pon di mission, we nuh bow and we nuh lean
Rasta kick down di door fi mek di youth dem come in
(Yuh nuh hear it)
Dem a wonda how di youth dem survive
dem a wonda how di youth dem arise
wid di false promises and one bag a lies
and all now nuttin nuh provide
Babylon if yuh nuh free the youths from hungry mouth
yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn, yah guh burn
deceive the youth, mislead the youths
Yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn, yah guh burn
if yuh nuh free the youths and pree the youths
Yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn, yah guh burn
If yuh nuh health the youths or wealth the yute
yuh ago burn up, yuh ago guh burn, alright
Tuff pon di bakkle field
Yuh cannot soft at life
Spiritually, physically yuh haffi fast and fight
Vampire huntin' blood inna the darks of night
So just lock it, any time you walk at night
And look out fi di dogs dem caw dem will bark and bite
Yuh haffi hunt your food, every walks of life
That simply mean food ah the staff of life
Babylon dem inna wrong suh dem a wrath
Babylon if yuh nuh free the youths from hungry mouth
yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn, yah guh burn
if you deceive the youth, mislead the youths
Yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn, yah guh burn
if yuh nuh free the youths and pree the youths
Yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn,
How yuh fi nuh health the youths or wealth the youths
Yuh ago burn up, babylon a burn, yuh Cali P
Whether life bitter or sweet I and I give thanks fi it
Mi nah guh let dung mi-self caw mi response fi dis
With the guidance of the king yeah we guh pon the thing
Marcus meditation bring the vision within
So when me step outta road, me haffi step out fi win
Haffi talk how me feel and burn out the shitstem
Cause fi the youths outta road, the leaders nah do a thing
Worldwide a di same cause people suffering
Babylon if yuh nuh free the youths from hungry mouth
yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn, yah guh burn
deceive the youth, mislead the youth
Yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn, yah guh burn
if yuh nuh free the youths and pree the youths
Yuh a guh burn up, yah guh burn, yah guh burn
If yuh nuh health the youths or wealth the youths
Yuh ago burn up, yuh ago burn, alright
