Ghetto boys with old men's eyes
Killin' each other like swattin' flies
They don't know life's a gift
Get ready, we gotta make a shift
It's always the right time
To do the right thing
Teenage children who can hardly read
Makin' babies they can barely feed
It's like a foreign country in our own backyard
How did that music get to be so hard?
It's always the right time, yeah
To do the right thing
To do the right thing
The ghost of slavery still haunts the nation
Junk food won't make it go away
So many died in freedom's name
To give up now be a cryin' shame
It's always the right time
To do the right thing
To do the right thing
To do the right thing
Human kindness, worth more than gold
It's time to give it away on the Jericho Road
It's always the right time
To do the right thing
To do the right thing
To do the right thing
To do the right thing
To do the right thing, oh hm
To do the right thing, mm
To do the right thing
To do the right thing
To do the right thing
