| [00:01.090] |
It's a struggle |
| [00:01.559] |
It's got a hold on me |
| [00:04.101] |
The universal struggle |
| [00:06.533] |
It's got a hold |
| [00:09.244] |
It's a struggle |
| [00:12.066] |
It's got a hold on me |
| [00:14.643] |
The universal struggle |
| [00:17.374] |
It's got a hold |
| [00:20.485] |
|
| [00:21.573] |
From Sofia, Bulgaria to the New York interior |
| [00:22.698] |
You see poverty and crime throughout these areas |
| [00:26.030] |
And people with tattered clothes, babies from battered homes |
| [00:28.790] |
Pure hard times, just they're dying from that alone |
| [00:31.669] |
From U.S. shores, to countries overseas |
| [00:34.437] |
This universal struggle's got a hold on me |
| [00:37.102] |
Every city's got a ghetto, the prisons are filled |
| [00:39.679] |
The police and the military in position to kill |
| [00:42.486] |
And I just wanna live my life with less pain |
| [00:45.145] |
Seems like only a few moves left ,in this chess game |
| [00:47.912] |
I guess change has gotta come soon |
| [00:50.678] |
I can't live my life in fear waiting for doom |
| [00:53.189] |
And actions of course speak louder than words |
| [00:56.029] |
It's much harder when you standing in a crowd to be heard |
| [00:58.797] |
So I walk alone and look forward to better days |
| [01:01.533] |
I'm not the same anymore, I endured with better ways |
| [01:04.254] |
|
| [01:06.878] |
It's a struggle |
| [01:07.206] |
It's got a hold on me |
| [01:09.671] |
The universal struggle |
| [01:12.101] |
It's got a hold |
| [01:15.062] |
It's a struggle |
| [01:17.680] |
It's got a hold on me |
| [01:20.398] |
The universal struggle |
| [01:23.109] |
It's got a hold |
| [01:25.914] |
|
| [01:27.744] |
From the hoods of Los Angeles to Toronto, Canada |
| [01:28.742] |
You can picture the struggle without no camera |
| [01:31.564] |
The wealthy get wealthier, cause that's the aim |
| [01:34.345] |
The less fortunate get desperate, and that's a shame |
| [01:36.989] |
Who's to blame we complain, nobody responds |
| [01:39.766] |
So our only alternative is to try to move on |
| [01:42.478] |
And show resilience in the face of danger |
| [01:45.198] |
Determination and strength to replace the anger |
| [01:47.952] |
Great people of the world rise up from despair |
| [01:50.660] |
Historically our kind has always been here |
| [01:53.420] |
To lead effectively when we need the recipe |
| [01:56.318] |
For peace, so we educate the seed respectfully |
| [01:58.918] |
And this is how we beat the struggle |
| [02:01.733] |
Staying tuned and keep out the reach of trouble |
| [02:04.374] |
The bloodshed, the oppression, the violence, the famine |
| [02:07.246] |
We can trace it through various events we examine |
| [02:09.939] |
|
| [02:12.058] |
It's a struggle |
| [02:12.622] |
It's got a hold on me |
| [02:15.150] |
The universal struggle |
| [02:17.597] |
It's got a hold |
| [02:20.376] |
It's a struggle |
| [02:23.005] |
It's got a hold on me |
| [02:26.080] |
The universal struggle |
| [02:28.720] |
It's got a hold |
| [02:31.614] |
