Yuh have a tongue fi talk, talk talk it out

Mek no sense yuh have di truth and lock up yuh mouth

A right over might, bun fear and doubt

Let the truth set yuh free, a di only way out



Yuh have a tongue to talk, so talk it out


Mek no sense yuh have di truth and shut up yuh mouth


A right over might, bun fear and doubt


Let the truth set yuh free, it’s the only way out


 


Verse 1


Well me name Mr. Palmer, and me noh si nothing wrong wid informer


As long as him naah inform pan dih farmer


Or dih driver, or dih juggler pan dih corner


Weh deh provide dih marijuana fih mek dih nation calmer


Or pan dih harmless hustler weh deh try fi mek a dollar


BUT wah bout dih beast who brutally butcher dih baby and dih baby mother


Wah bout dih perverted predator, weh rape dih harmless grandmother  


Wah bout dih dog weh rape and kill dih two Westmoreland daughter


If yuh sih and silent, den yuh consent to the slaughter


 


Yuh have a tongue fi talk, talk talk it out


Mek no sense yuh have di truth and lock up yuh mouth


A right over might, bun fear and doubt


Let the truth set yuh free, a di only way out


 


Verse 2


Jah know mih haffi vent, cause mih noh content


Yu gih dutty murderers yuh consent, when yuh kip silent


Wih gih wih future a big dent, cause wih too violent


Dem seh “sih and blind, hear and deaf”


But if wih kip dat up, none a wih naah goh left


How wih fih support murder, and cover up rape, how wih fi support theft


How wih fih mek dem kill a clean youth like Jeff


How wih fih mek dem rape an innocent girl like Steff


If wih sih and blind, hear and deaf, quick o clock, none a wih naah goh left


None a wih naah goh left, none a wih naah goh left


 


I have a tongue fi talk soh, I a talk it out


Mek no sense I have di truth and lock up I mouth


A right over might, I bun fear and doubt


The truth set I free, I am on di way out


 


Verse 3


 


Yuh sih everything, but nothing yuh noh do


 Bout yuh naah fast inna what don’t concern you


Yuh sih dem come fi Tom, yuh sih dem come kill Sue


Still yuh look di next way nothing yuh no do


But one day they may come for you or someone related to you


Then what must we do, look the next way just like you do?


That naah goh help me, and dat certainly cyaa goh help you


Collective security will carry us trough


Collective security wih carry wih trough


 


Yuh have a tongue to talk, so talk it out


Mek no sense yuh have di truth and shut up yuh mouth


A right over might, bun fear and doubt


Let the truth set yuh free, it’s the only way out
