When I write it's not just about speaking to the people, but also speaking for them. This is what I hear them saying. We are tired of disunity, disorder and destruction. This is a time for peace, a time for healing...a Year For Love!

Verse 1
Another one just gone
Boy yuh beat yuh chest and smile,
Say you’s ah madman
Another young boy fall
Yuh so careless dat night oh you’z

Badman is a man who does defend
woman
And protect de young ones by any
means, lawd
Yuh ain’t no bad man boy, nah.
Yuh ain’t no bad man
A real badman does make his own
decisions
He don’t need anyone. He only need
his God
Yuh ain’t no bad man boy, nah.
Yuh ain’t no bad man
Pre-Chorus
So sit down, rock back
Tell dem ah doh need no strap

If they distress my people then

We doh need no war now
I say we doh want no more now
Verse 2
A real badman doh go round raping
woman
Influencing young ones to kill a

Yuh ain’t no badman boy, nah.
Yuh ain’t no badman
A real badman works for whatever he
wants
And he don’t need no gun, he full of
joy now
Dah’s ah badman, soldier.
Yuh ain’t no badman
