Overall Meaning

The song "Hav E Hav E" by Culture is a powerful commentary on the social and economic disparities that exist in society. The opening lines, "Me a go throw me corn, and me no call no fowl / And you see who want pick up a macka corn and swallow it / And make it pitch cross him throat, make him gwaan," suggest that there are those who are willing to take advantage of any opportunity they can get, even if it means swallowing something that might make them sick. The chorus, "You Mr. Hav E Hav E Hav E Hav E Hav E Hav E / Hey Mr. Hav E! Yuh Hav E already," addresses those who have already attained wealth and privilege and are not willing to share it with those less fortunate.


The verse "My command is: Give the youth a try, give the youth a try / Let them even suck their mother's milk and even eat bread (Them nah waan go a prison)" speaks to the importance of providing opportunities for young people to succeed, rather than allowing them to fall into a cycle of poverty and criminality. The bridge "Time for the lock spoil and the key throw away / That's for the jail house key" suggests that it is time to abandon punitive approaches to justice and to instead focus on educational and rehabilitative measures.


Overall, "Hav E Hav E" is a powerful critique of the social and economic structures that perpetuate inequality and poverty, and a call to action for individuals and society as a whole to work towards greater justice and equality.
