They will lie to the people just to get the leader's crown on their head
That is all they want
But they will make us to believe them by promising us good road, free education, water and street light

We are tired of hearing you from the radio telling lies everytime
Watching you on TV making false promises
If you were in our shoes, tell me how you will feel.



We need equal right to be free

We're tired of hearing
Come today and come tomorrow.



Telling lies to the people
Promising you a heaven on earth

But till Jah's kingdom comes will it be done
They will try to deceive you
Mountain poles in your street

But will never be wired
Giving women a bag of salt to share
And to do again when his kingdom comes

I am tired of hearing lies from these people everytime
Telling us to hold on, everything is gonna be alright
Do you really know what it means to fail a pledge?



We need equal right to be free

We're tired of hearing
Come today and come tomorrow.



Them'a chopping up our money everyday
And we've got to do nothing

Cos them'a keeps on telling us to hold on
But I and I know that them'a telling us lies, man!
The rastaman never like cheating and smiling.

All they do is sitting on table
Drinking tea of a million bought milk
Forgotten that there are people in jail who only feeds on bad odours

All they do is putting on coats
Flying around with helicopters
Forgotten that there are people out there who are walking on a bare-footed.



We need equal right to be free

We're tired of hearing
Come today and come tomorrow.
