Everyday you give more to recieve your less (Why) I know it's hard to believe that mess So when you get home and you feel depressed Just put on my tape and relieve the stress
And yo, cut the system let it bleed to death ain't nothing But your mission, never leave your quest in Pole position - speed up lead the rest They don't need to rest, they need to see we blessed
Yo, life is like a tide - shit coming and goes Sombody had to cry 'cus somebody wanted it so You have to fight to feel the harmony flow But it's hard when the light's both so far and so close
So when you fed up and you tired of life keep your head up, you'll reach higher heights Yo get up, for the time is right My people step up, and shine your light
'Cus all the trouble we've been through and all of the evil that men do makes us harder the struggle continues Come on my sisters and brothers and sing too
Feel how the harmonies link you while the struggle continues we've got so many things to say and do now...
I know that life hurts We all need a night nurse I need to write words - I need the right words
To come across and make you feel my thirst Without this so called freedom of speech I might burst Transform the pain into a tight verse Sendin' a shout out to all the freedom fighters throughout the whole U 'n I verse winning this struggle unless we die first
Yo when you hurt so much that it's hard to speak and it hurts so much you can hardly breath You wanna get up and fight but you far to weak Feels like a too long night for your heart to beat They wanna kiss and make up but talk is cheap You'd like to dis 'em straight up cus you're scarred to deep Don't be fooled (never) recognize the mark of the beast Stay true to yourself and you'll hard to beat.
'Cus all the trouble we've been through and all of the evil that men do It makes us harder the struggle continues Come on my sisters and brothers and sing too
Feel how the harmonies link you while the struggle continues We got so many things to say and do now...
I've seen so many different faces, different places I've seen so many people strugglin' no matter the ages From your granddads granddad to newborn babies The answer that they givin' is all the same old phrases
I've seen the pain gone away with medication In dirty syringes in dirty stair cases I've seen lives slaughtered by dictators Nowadays nothing is news 'cus nothing amazes
I've seen so much that is hard to write but it seems that's it's the part of life and the people who make us apologize is the same who make people starve tonight
And when your mind sees no difference between wrong or right and your life sees no difference between dark or bright and when not wakin' up is your only spark of light remember: We got a war to fight!
So when you fed up and you tired of life keep your head up, you'll reach higher heights Yo get up for the time is right My people step up, and shine your light
Cus all the trouble we've been through and all of the evil that men do It makes us harder the struggle continues Come on my sisters and brothers and sing too
Feel how the harmonies link you while the struggle continues we've got so many things to say and do now...
The struggle continues til it suddenly hits you The biggest one is the struggle within you Kill out the hate that is bubblin' in you before your mental poverty ends you
Can you hear us?...
All the trouble we've been through all of the evil that men do (on an'on) the struggle continues (you gotta sing it) come on and sing to (you gotta feel it) the harmonies link you (on an' on) and the struggle continues (so many things)
