"World Is In Trouble" lyrics

No righteousness
Righteousness can take us to the promised land
And I man nah bow down to Satan
See and I man nah hop up on the wagon
Well hear this
We nah bow to the dragon

Because the world is in trouble
Live up righteous, no bother get comfortable
The world is in trouble
Seek God who nah know heart and stop pray to the devil
The world is in trouble
Put down the guns and the bomb and we won't have no battle
The world is in trouble
All weh dem destroy is still not forgotten

I see racial tension
I see rich man get broke all and live off a pension
Nation against nation
Dem a fight over wealth and want come take weh we bond land
Not to mention political affliction
Weh man a war over turf and want kill off the young one
Let us speak about civilization
Now tell me why some people cannot get education
Now the wheel it a spin out a motion
Dem say who can't afford fi go drown inna ocean
All who no get dem portion
Better think very hard just to get a promotion

'Cause the world is in trouble
Live up righteous, no bother get comfortable
'Cause the world is in trouble
Seek God who nah know heart and stop pray to the devil
'Cause the world is in trouble
Put down the guns and the bomb and we won't have no battle
The world is in trouble
All weh dem destroy is still not forgotten

Some a dem yah youth nah know bravery
That's why a whole heap a dem still a live inna slavery
Walking 'round killing baby
About dem wicked and dem bad a still a rob old lady
When me look pon dem life it look shady
And when things come to bump dem boil down like gravy
Pray to the Lord and get ready
That is the only solution fi get dem life steady

'Cause the world is in trouble
Live up righteous, no bother get comfortable
The world is in trouble
Seek God who nah know heart and stop pray to the devil
The world is in trouble
Put down the guns and the bomb and we won't have no battle
The world is in trouble
All weh dem destroy is still not forgotten

As I wake up to face another day
I see another youth get leaded astray
Hear people a work and nah get no pay
Suffering is the talk at the end of the day
You visit certain areas you can't even stay
You have to leave very fast, do not delay
We can't find a good park fi we kids dem fi play
To try by shooting dem life snuff the way

'Cause the world is in trouble
Live up righteous, no bother get comfortable
The world is in trouble
Seek God who nah know heart and stop pray to the devil
The world is in trouble
Put down the guns and the bomb and we won't have no battle
The world is in trouble
All weh dem destroy is still not forgotten

Dem running and dem running and dem running away
Dem running and dem running and dem running away
The bwoy dem running and dem running and dem running away
But dem can't run away from themselves
The bwoy dem can't run away from themselves
Dem running and dem running and dem running away
Dem running and dem running and dem running away
Dem running and dem running and dem running away
But dem can't run away from themselves

'Cause the world is in trouble
Live up righteous, no bother get comfortable
The world is in trouble
Seek God who nah know heart and stop pray to the devil
The world is in trouble
Put down the guns and the bomb and we won't have no battle
The world is in trouble
All weh dem destroy is still not forgotten
