Lyrics:

Mi nah watch nuh face, no Nah watch nuh face, no Nah watch nuh face again Mi nah watch no face Nah watch no face No, no way

When me say Blood Money Dem probably wah fi come fi me Suppose me tell you bout Seaga and the CIA And wah them use fi destabilize the economy And who did set the order, bring in guns a Tivoli April 22nd ,1978 Jacob Miller, Bucky Marshall, Claudie pon a stage Marley call out Manley and Seaga, dem say peace But beg you pree dem face and then go check the date Not even a year after inna ‘79 Dem murder Claudia Massop, shot him 40 time 1980’s wild, mi tell you inna March Dem murder Bucky a New York Jacob dead in a crash No haffi tell you Wha happen May 11 From you bless so dem will kill you But the message we no give up, mi seh Nothing no shift up Just lip up, dem a lip up With di tings weh dem a keep up Is a stick up

I know dem nah go teach you this a school, no But you done know a so Jamaica rule though And any time you try fi make a move yah It comin’ like you have sumpin fi prove yah You coulda graduate and set yuh future And still haffi a look out fi di shoota If you a woman, you a get abuse too You no see nothing no deh fi do, no

How much we owe the IMF, huh? Waa? And wah the benefit we get, huh? Waa? A who did say lock up all Rastafari Bring dem in dead or alive And never want fi survive, huh? Now everything you hear, you can’t believe Even if the person that said it was me Do a likkle research fi yourself and see Open a book or watch a documentary Life and debt Wah the threat Walter Rodney say it best Once the masses educated then unstoppable we get So you see, illiteracy is not an accident It’s precisely why we fight amongst we self

I know dem nah go teach you this a school, no But you done know a so Jamaica rule though And any time you try fi make a move yah It comin’ like you have sumpin fi prove yah You coulda graduate and set yuh future And still haffi a look out fi di shoota If you a woman, you a get abuse too You no see nothing no deh fi do, no

Nah watch nuh face, no
