| Can you take it? how can i be strong | |
| When i see many things in the world is wrong? | |
| You know the love in the hearts is a thing of the past | |
| And living like this, how long can we last? | |
| Some are content to the way things are | |
| Well, not me, you know the road is far | |
| Take off your blindfolds and start to see clear | |
| Time's windin down, and the end is near | |
| Me speaking fact not fiction, pay attention | |
| Our world is in a critical condition | |
| Understand prejudice is rumor and lies | |
| And over this evil many people have died | |
| You know what blood's been shed over he-said she-said | |
| I don't let lies fill my head | |
| But you say it's like that and the way it is | |
| Well, that's my point, there's no love to give | |
| I say | |
| [ chorus ] | |
| Why | |
| Why do we live this way? | |
| You know the killin and fightin | |
| Why | |
| Why do we live this way? | |
| You know the love is gone | |
| Why | |
| Why do we live this way? | |
| Weak you have to be strong | |
| Why | |
| Why do we live this way? | |
| [ verse 2: grand wizard dj ready red ] | |
| A family of five tryin to survive | |
| They had 30 days till the welfare arrived | |
| Father was gone and nowhere in sight | |
| And to the little kids it just wasn't right | |
| You know the mother was wise to hide the cries | |
| Taught the kids well bout livin in hell | |
| Took on the problems from day to day | |
| And then at night to the lord she prayed | |
| You know i'm livin in a world that doesn't even care | |
| Too many damn problems for me to bare | |
| Should i be strong or should i be weak? | |
| Or just ride the problems, go from week to week | |
| You know i read in the papers just the other day | |
| About a lady who was killed, it went this way | |
| Say little mrs. brown who never did a thing | |
| Was shot and killed over a wedding ring | |
| Yeah, it really was a shame, but who's to blame? | |
| Cause it's just another story that the world's insane | |
| You're sayin it's like that and the way it is | |
| But that's my point, there's no love to give | |
| [ chorus ] | |
| Break it down | |
| (children grow and women produce | |
| And men go work, and some go stealin | |
| Everyone's got to make a livin) | |
| [ chorus ] | |
