Red inna Earth
Dem evil mass media, misleading the world
Deceiving the people, polluting the soil
Mama Earth said fi light it
Turn the flame up
Higher, mek di fire get redda now
It red inna Earth ya now, red inna Earth
Turn the flame up
Higher, mek di fire get redda now
It red inna Earth ya now, it red inn Earth
So when mi see di youths dem ah rise it
It should be no surprises
Work ah downsize, while di prices rising
Dem design dem devices fi try divide wi
While di beast ah terrorize we, word to Isis
Abundance Mama Earth provided
You exploit just to fly in private
Now you ah bawl seh di temperature rising
Icarus soon drop from the sky, oh I
Dem system ah tumble down
Ah bun up inna flame
Di judgement awaiting
Mek it blaze up
Higher, mek di fire get redda now
It red inna Earth ya now, red inna Earth
Turn the flame up
Higher, mek di fire get redda now
It red inna Earth ya now, it red inna Earth
Mi seh di place ah run hot, hot
Di youths look food fi eat, but di shop lock
Hungry belly nuh inna joke wit no knock knock
Di knapsack full a sit’n fi mek you drop flat
Hot rocks man a fling when man ah chop chop
Fly down pon you wicked like rat-bat
Topnotch ammunition, dem ah lock dat
Ready fi knock dat, from yuh neva pay di block tax
And dem nah guh gi yuh chance fi clap back
Dem system ah tumble down
Ah bun up inna flame
No way to escape it
Turn the flame up
Higher, mek di fire get redda now
It red inna Earth yah now, red inna Earth
Turn the flame up
Higher, mek di fire get redda now
It red inna Earth ya nuh, it red inna Earth
Mek it blaze up
Red inna earth
Look how much poor people dead under dirt
Mama Earth ah bawl
And worst of all
For the price of gold
Mankind polluting their souls
Fire purge dem out
