Ina Time Like Now Songtext / Lyric

certain things not change
life is joy and it's sorrow
and mama's always feeling the pain
daddy's alwas working for a brighter tomorrow
under agony and strain in a time like now
stand up to face of the struggle
no more will you step a side
in a time like now
when the whole wide world is in trouble
the fittest of the fittest will survive (2x) root alone nuh bear the fruit on this ya tree of living
and for the loot some man a shoot
for this dem need forgiving
the bigger heads dem undercover
guns and drugs dem shipping
not even little mercy come dripping
it's so hard for us to find some things we can believe in
everything around us so attractive yet deceiving
peace within ourselves is worth
the heartship of acievement
hold on thight till we leave

in a time like now...

never be afraid that you might fail
cause sometimes a train will come off a the rail
try not to put your soul nor your body out for sale
you'll be like a prisoner charged without bail
if hope should disappear we're in a real double trouble
you got to keep your head up for sure
and how we fit the pieces to the big jigsaw puzzle
distraction is knocking on your door

in a time like now...
