So much trouble in the world now ( ) Bless my eyes this morning JAH sun is on the rise once again The way earthly things are going Anything can happen You see men sailing on their ego trips Blast off on their spaceships Million miles from reality No care for you, no care for me So much So much trouble in the world now ( ) All you've got to do is give a little Give a little, give a little One more time ye-a-h! ye-ah! So you think you have found the solution But it's just another illusion So before you check out your tide Don't leave another cornerstone standing there behind We have got to face the day, ooh we come what may We the street people talking, we the people struggling Now they are sitting on a time bomb Now I know the time has come What goes up must come down Goes around comes around So much trouble in the world So much trouble in the world So much trouble in the world There is so much trouble, there is so much trouble There is so much trouble There is so much trouble in the world There is so much trouble in the world |

That unti there are no longer first class and second class citizens af any nation Until the color of a man's skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyer Me say war. That until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all, without regard to race Dis a war. That until that day the dream of lasting peace, world citizenship rule of international morality will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, but never attained Now everywhere is war, war. And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes that hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique, South Africa sub-human bondage have been toppled, utterly destroyed Well, everywhere is war, me say war. War in the east, war in the west war up north, war down south war, war, rumours of war. And until that day, the Efrican continent will not know peace, we Africans will fight we find it necessary and we know we shall win as we are confident in the victory. Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil Good over evil, good over evil, good ever evil |

Some will hate you, pretend they love you now, Then behind they try to eliminate you. But who Jah bless, no one curse; Thank God, we're past the worse. Hypocrites and parasites Will come up and take a bite. And if your night should turn to day, A lot of people would run away. And who the stock fit let them wear it! Who the (cap fit) let them (wear it)! And then a-gonna throw me corn, And then a-gonna call no fowl, And then a-gonna "Cook-cook-cook, cluk-cluk-cluk."
