Lyrics

Skriptcha tell ya, mi expose di scheme
Big man puppet, money run di dream
Camera flash but di hand unseen
Oil control di story weh feed pon screen
Who controls di oil, controls di tale
Buy up di truth, put justice fi sale
Who controls di oil, bend di word
Blind di people, twist what dem heard
Dem pump black gold fi di power seat
Pipeline run while di lie repeat
Anchor smile but di script dem read
Bought and sold by di tank and greed
Narrative set from di desert king
Western mouthpiece echo di ring
Lobby loud in di parliament hall
But oil-stain money cyaan hide di call
Youth dem starve while di tyrant dine
Sip champagne, talk peace online
Every microphone spin one lie
But Skriptcha seh—truth cyan't die
Who controls di oil, controls di tale
Buy up di truth, put justice fi sale
Who controls di oil, bend di word
Blind di people, twist what dem heard
Petro-dollar chain pon di anchor neck
Check di cheque, every newsman check
Scholar preach but di facts gone thin
Cyan't bite hand dat feed dem sin
In di chamber, lawmen bow
Oil barrel bigger than di oath dem vow
Script flip quick when di sheikh demand
Whole West kneel fi di bloody hand
But mi pen cut sharper than blade in fight
Skriptcha tear veil, mi reveal light
Who write di script?—Oil lord command!
Who pay di bill?—Blood 'pon sand!
Who mute di scream?—TV man!
Who feed di beast?—Western hand!
Who controls di oil, controls di tale
Buy up di truth, put justice fi sale
Who controls di oil, bend di word
Blind di people, twist what dem heard
Skriptcha seh—open yuh mind
Oil cyaan drown di truth mi find
Who control di barrel, cyaan control mi
Truth burn hotter dan refinery
