Destruction, reluctant, fail to see
Can't see the light...
I heard the news, and it's no surprise
There's a moment of sadness, another brother died
By the hands of the culture, ah, one of his own
Children having babies, before they're fully grown
How long (how long will it carry on)
Tell me, how long (how long will it be this way)
Wait a minute!
I read the news once more, it's the same old story
People out of work, can't get no money
And they say, "Fifteen can't buy you everything"
But no one's giving, giving anything for free
How long (how long) can I (carry on)
Hallelujah, how long (how long will it be this way)
Tell me! (how long) please, please, please! (will it carry on)
(How long will it be this way) well!
You can run, but you can't hide
You say you got problems, we got problems worldwide
More hunger, natural disaster
Man-made destruction with the race moving faster
Faster, faster, faster, oh!
Is it forever? How long, how long...
Well, way down in the soul
I'm hurting, please, I'm hurting
Please, please, I'm hurting
Please, I'm hurting, please, oh!
Got to come together, make it better
Have a little faith, and respect each other
So that we can, work these problems out
See the light of the day, make it turn about
Oh, how long (how long can we carry on)
I got to know, y'all (how long will it be this way)
Oh, oh, how long (how long can we carry on)
Oh-woah-woah! (how long will it be this way)
Wait a minute! You can run, huh, you can't hide
So check yourself, and the feelings inside
If they're bad, you gotta find a way
Makes you feel good, you'll have a high price to pay
We gotta come together, make it better
Have a little faith, and respect each other
So that we can, work these problems out
See the light of the day, make it turn about
Ow, all around about that
Oh-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah
Brother, please, sister, please, mother, please, daddy, please
We gotta work these problems out, y'all
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
We gotta work these problems out, y'all
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
Wipe these problems out! (We gotta work, we gotta work these problems)
No more god! (Work it, work it)
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
Try a little love, love over you
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
Try a little love, love over you
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
Try a little love, put a little love!
(Work it, work it) ahh!
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
In your heart, in your heart, y'all!
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
Man-made disaster, mass destruction!
(Work it, work it)
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
No more, no more, no more
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
No more, no more, no more
(We gotta work, we gotta work, we gotta work these problems out)
No more, no more, no more...
