Them want I
Be com'a them funeral

Them claim say
Them are the general
Them want I

What a big disgrace
The way you rob up the place
Rob everthing you can find

And you'll even rob from the blind
You must see want I fe
Com'a com'a funeral
And I no, no go
No one burial
Yet you want I
Com'a com'a funeral
Make your friend come claim say
You are the genie
Now we know the truth

Find you wearing the boot
Of taking people's business on your head, yeah
So might as well you be dead

Let the dead bury the dead now
And who is to be fed, be fed
I ain't got no time to waste on you, no, no
I'm a livin' man, I got work to do
Right now
This man and that man
Yes they are the same man
You taught us this just as well
That the rich man heaven is the poor man's hell
You must see want I fe com'a com'a funeral
Natty no go, no one burial
Yet you want I
Com'a com'a funeral
Make your friend come claim say
You are the genie

You must see want I fe
Com'a com'a funeral
And I no, no go
No one burial
Yet you want I
Com'a com'a funeral
Make your friend come claim say

yea steppingrazor has the right idea.
it's jus the musician renouncing violence: the gangsters want him to come to their funerals. they say they are the generals (the leaders of the gangster warriors).
he says he's disgraced at how they steal from people. both gangsters of the ghetto stealing from other poor people and the ruling class taking resources away from the disenfranchised.
when you try to get rich you spend all your time in hell. and for the rich there is no greater pleasure than destroying those who are of less value than you. that is what he is saying.
