Verse 1:
So, as I rise up in di morning
I give thanks for life while I water my garden
All, innocent yutes dem charging
While nuff deh yah jailhouse packed up like sardines
All, this is di higher calling
Fi mek di lower set of people dem caan cross di margin
But, anyday dem mek we barge in
As di most apartment everyone will be farin

Chorus:
As far as my eyes can see, yuh nuh see Babylon nuh cater fi we

As far as my eyes can see, yuh nuh see Babylon nuh cater fi we
As we a walk like we a vigilante
Dem do di crime while we pay di penalty

Verse 2:
You know I gotta keep it real say what I know not what I feel
Why then yah babylon nuh waan we eat nuh meal
Mi ask dem what's di deal why dem waan spin mi like a wheel
Full time dem tek we out to shankle then kill
Although di plan hot, dem nah go hear we squeal
Dem don't even waan we own a automobile
Nuttin nuh conceal everyting a go reveal
Man a go boom dung dem court of appeal

Chorus:

Bridge:
Yeah, two thousand five, it didn't start so well for many of us
Like a lot of lives, have been taken
A lot of mothers, been crying losing their sons
A lot of, innocent kids getting kidnapped and victimized
I'm praying for Kingston, fourteen parishes in Jamaica, we need peace and unity
I'm praying for the rich, I'm praying for the poor
I'm praying for the gunman, sodomite and the w____

Chorus:
As far as my eyes can see, yuh nuh see Babylon nuh cater fi we
As we a walk like we a vigilante
Dem do di crime while we pay di penalty
As far as my eyes can see, yuh nuh see Babylon nuh cater fi we
As we a walk like we a vigilante
Dem do di crime while we pay di penalty

Outro:
Enough is enough, yeah....
