'Fire' is a traditional motif in Dancehall music. It can stand for many things: rastas speak of the fire of purification but also of the fire of condemnation and righteous anger. 'Fire' recurs in both Comrade Bant Singh and Delhi Sultanate's lyrics. Bant speaks of the revolutionary fire that makes people put their lives on the line for the cause. Delhi Sultanate's lyrics lay out how government and big business collude in colonial style exploitation that places commercial interests above the lives of the people and threatens the foundations of life itself.
