[Intro]
Watch dem a hope and pray say you nah go make it
But man make it and dem see it and can't take it
Wha' make dem so evil?
Wha' make dem so evil?
Wha' make dem so evil, Lord?

Make dem so evil?
Wha' make dem so jealous?
Wha' make dem so envious?

Jah Jah know
Wha' make dem so evil?

[Chorus]
But badmind a go kill dem slowly
Badmind a go kill dem only
Take dem away from good people
Bruk dem heart and lef' dem lonely
Badmind a go kill dem slowly
Stress dem out and leave dem lonely
Take dem away from good people (stay away)
Stay away from good people

[Verse 1]
The Bible says, "Man can't live by bread alone"
Matthew 4:4

So I will never fight my brother own
Me see, shame on you!
It's a shame on you
You no really waan fi see nobody come out to nothing
It's a shame on you, watch this
You see the devil inna dem when dem smile
Dem mother beat dem too much as a child
Dem no grow up with good providence or parental guidance
So dem have dutty ways as a style
But dem cyaan style me
And dem cyaan soil me
Man solid as a rock, dem bwoy deh a rat
Dem cyaan spoil me
No

[Chorus]
Badmind a go kill dem slowly
Bruk dem heart and leave dem lonely
Take dem away from good people
A dem never want the world know me
But, badmind a go kill dem slowly
Bruk dem heart and leave dem lonely
Take dem away from good people (stay away)
Take dem away from good people

[Verse 2]
Me tell me mama say, me a go buy a lass
Cah too much snake inna the grass
Yes, a dem inna the media a chat
But, watch yah now
Unno fi happy fi the young man
A some a unno make the city full a gunman
So, me say music, 'cause me never waan fi turn one
Me iconic and a nothing me a come from

[Chorus]
And that's why kill dem slowly
Bruk dem heart and lef' dem lonely
Take dem away from good people
A dem never want the world know me
But, badmind a go kill dem slowly
Bruk dem heart and leave dem lonely
Take dem away from good people (stay away)
Take dem away from good people

[Outro]
Just now me know a you
Jah know
And already know the things you do
Wha' make dem so evil?
Wha' make dem so evil?
Wha' make dem so evil, Lord?

You do...
Wha' make dem so jealous?
Wha' make dem so envious?
Wha' make dem so evil?

And that's why me a kill dem slowly
Kill dem slowly...
