I thought it would be better Now I'm a branded hot stepper If I am guilty, Lord God Then I will pay Now I'm a victim By the words men say And now I'm wanted There's a price on my head So I, so I Said I'm a wanted But Jah won't let the wicked capture I, no way If I get crucial Along the way Cause men has been brutal By the games they play And cause me to be wanted There's a price on my head So I, so I Said I'm a wanted But Jah won't let the wicked capture I, no way I know things will be better Though I'm a branded hot stepper If I get wearied Why step in the way? I will get over Cause it's a game men play But now I'm wanted For the things that I know not about, oh no Said I'm a wanted But Jah won't let the wicked get me on, no way Wanted for doing good among my people Night and day Wanted for living clean among my brethren The games the people play Wanted for doing good Things will be better Though they brand me as a stepper
