Settle The Score Lyrics

I wake up in the morning
And I flash my natty dread, yeah
Give praises to the most high, Jah Jah
Then me hold a freshReady for the world wide pressure
It's heavy like a lead
I deliver dis ya message with a vengeance
To the heads of government to you head, yeah'Cos it's time to settle the score
The poor can't take no more
Babylon rotten to the core
The shitstem run by a whore
We nah go bow come we settle the scoreAll you intellectual fools now
Listen to the youth
They stumble in the paths of darkness
Searching for the truthNo more hey diddle the cat and the fiddle
The cow jump over the moon
We no beg, we no bow, we nah turn poppy show
Nah go play by the rules no'Cos it's time to settle the score
The poor can't take no more

Babylon rotten to the core
The shitstem run by a whore
We nah go bow come we settle the scoreYes, I and I Selassie I soldier
Yes, we come fe war
'Gainst wickedness in high and low places
Says you full a flawWe are the militant prepare to take your stance
Lick down who in our way
I've seen it a thousand times I know revenge is mine
And now you must pay, cause'Cos it's time to settle the score
The poor can't take no more
Babylon rotten to the core
The shitstem run by a whore
We nah go bow come we settle the scoreTings get gritty in the city
Have no pity for the guilty
Up from slavery onto victory
Mighty mighty rootsy rootsyNatty dread locks
Settle the score down easy
Settle the score down easy
Armed with locks and cutchieItalyood in my duchie
Dread will conquer the duppy
If you live you are lucky
Time, yes, it's time
Rough and ready cool and deadly timeDis ya hustle and a bustle
Fighting against all evil
Destruction of de people
Declare it as illegalYou in a bag of trouble
So don't you move a muscle
The shitstem run by a whore
