There's a time when the operation of the machines becomes so adious
Makes you so sick at heart
That you can't take part
You can't even passively take part
And you got put your bodies
Upon the gears
And upon the wheels
Upon the levers
Upon all the apparatus and you got to mâle it stop
And you got to indicate to the people
Who run it to the people who own il
That unless you're free the machine
will be prevented from working at all
Young dread inna di heart of the ghetto
Where be born and grow
Politician come flash a little money
And then off them go
Promissing more jobs and funding
For youth employment
Four years later it come terrible and dreadful
With no sign of betterment
In this watchie watchie watchie world
Man haffe fight the ego
Against this sus sus sus sus system
Man haffe roar like a lion!
Young dread stand up and don't you stumble
Upon this road
Vultures and ravers swoop and circle
So let it be know
We are not heat to live meek and bashful
But to make thunder roll
Calling to all of you righteous people
To challenge this status quo
In this watchie watchie watchie world
Man haffe fight the ego
Against this sus sus sus sus system
Man haffe roar like a lion!
Young dread inna a di heart of the ghetto
Where he born and grow
Politician come flash a little money
And then off them go
Promissing more jobs and funding
For youth employment
For youth man betterment
For the youth encouragement
In this watchie watchie watchie world
Man haffe fight the ego
Against this sus sus sus sus system
Man haffe roar like a lion!
