Lyrics :
Yeah I and I say war is rather ugly and love is rather lovely
Let Jah be praised
Fire man a bun them can’t cool
Riding the riddim me say like more than a lizard pan a limb
Hail King Selassie the king of all kings
We nah come ya so fi lose we come ya so fi win
When the warriors marching
Tell them a straight love we bring whether thick or thin
Why so much hatred then where love been
Keep shining no make your love light dim
Cause a love over hate we a sing
Cause Babylon so evil
Is like them only know evil
Them make the youths them grow evil
And then them kill out every old people
Alright
Babylon so evil
Is like them only know evil
Them make the youths them grow evil
Not a love them never show people
(red hot)
Wake up Jah children and break them chains
Babylon system must fall like rain
I and I come to conquer we don’t come to bow
Babylon system must fall right now
Them can’t stop the truth from rising
No matter how them try we keep fighting
Them take off the chains of we feet
Then poison the food that we eat
Cause Babylon so evil
Is like them only know evil
Them make the youths them grow evil
And then them kill out every old people
Alright
Babylon so evil
Is like them only know evil
Them make the youths them grow evil
Not a love them never show people
(yo Junior Gong tell them something)
Them fi know say death is final and life is sacred
Them fi know say give thanks for the life you wake with
Them shoulda know say love is beneficial over hatred
Them shoulda learn the faith the facts of life that them face with
Them shoulda know good over evil that is how we slated
Nuff a dem a face life just because the case rig
Dutty Babylon your fan base big that’s why so many lifes wasted
Alright
More education, more school, more meal
Knowledge more powerful than your force field
More fire still bun pon back door deal
Cause more traitor acting like they are so real
More youths depressed and them soul want heal
Them need more sinkle bible and golden seal
Remember say water and oil don’t deal
Cause Babylon so evil
Is like them only know evil
Them make the youths them grow evil
And then them kill out every old people
Alright
Babylon so evil
Is like them only know evil
Them make the youths them grow evil
Not a love them never show people
(Red hot)
Ho ho ho
Love and hate can never be friend
Ho ho ho
Love and hate here I come
Ho ho ho
Love and hate can never be friend
Ho ho ho
Love and hate here I come
