🎶 Them Belly Full (But We Hungry) song analysis

The protagonist sings that even though some people have full bellies, they are still hungry. When people are hungry, they can become angry and aggressive. The weather is bad and there is not enough food for everyone, but people keep dancing to Jah's music to forget their problems and sorrows. The cost of living is high and both the rich and the poor struggle, but the weak must become strong during the hard times.
