In the youths them mind
Now, it's harvest time

Wo! Them a criminal, watch it, them a criminal
Seh them a criminal, seh them a criminal
Seh them a criminal the whole a dem a criminal
Seh shem a criminal, watch it them a

Them a criminal, nah follow them
Take what them want then them gone back again
Them a criminal, nah guh them feast
Tell 'em we nuh retreat, we just gone to the east
Them a criminal, but a we follow Jah law
See dem a fraud with them tra la la la
Them a criminal, na
Them a criminal, na nah na na

Jah a di main shield, the eye them stay peel
The music stay real, pickney 'pon the play field
Baby in the stomach, mommy know the pain real
Headphone 'pon her belly, watch him stay still
See how the sun a shine, see how the rain feel
Jah beg yu keep him dry, I beg and pray fi him
Fi di man dem weh a chop it up a Grange Hill
Fi di man dem weh a cut it inna cane field
Dem lock up Leonard Howell fi sell Selassie face
Dat couldn't stop the message, this a Selassie place
A that you hear we reppin', ask about what happen
'Pon September 11, 1987
Then them kill we brethren- Tosh and Free I
So Rasta Reggae Radio could never see the light
Gwaan no believe in I, say I a Levi
Trod with the Simeon, so act like you nuh see me

Them a criminal, nah follow them
Take what them want then them gone back again
Them a criminal, nah guh them feast
Tell 'em we nuh retreat, we just gone to the east
Them a criminal, but a we follow Jah law
See dem a fraud with them tra la la la
Them a criminal, na
Them a criminal, na nah na na

The Son arise before the sun arise
Some despise it a so me summarise it
See some a eyes it, wah sit weh I sit
Create a crisis, but Jah come give me ises, ih huh
Them send them dogs to the synagogues
But the lions align against the giunea-gogues
Mr. Inquisitor, cyaan go see it pause
Home of Marcus, His Majesty did visit yard
Me envision them timing a go critical
Dem select the pawn fi lef' it sticky 'pon we
Walter did warn we, Boukman did born deh
And go Haiti and revolution start, yeah
The same man dem in a Jacket and tie
A dem a pack the supply and attract you to buy
But that is a lie just fi try stack it up high
Well I, never oblige, I attack and survive

Them a criminal, nah follow them
Take what them want then them gone back again
Them a criminal, nah guh them feast
Tell 'em we nuh retreat, we just gone to the east
Them a criminal, but a we follow Jah law
See dem a fraud with them tra la la la
Them a criminal, na
Them a criminal, na nah na na
