Times Dread

If you're working man then you know what I'm talking 'bout
You no longer believe a single word that comes out from their mouth
So stand up and confront these lies
Or hold your head my brother and cry
'Cause times rough
And times dread my children
Time dem dread
I can hear you crying
I can hear you crying my children
Time dem dread
If you're loving soul then you know what that truth's about
If you're searching soul, you know love is the way out
So either stand up and be heard
Or hold your head and turn

[Chorus:]
If you're knowledgeable man then you will know some history
How long will you wait until you make a stand, repair the mystery
So either stand up and confront the lies or hold your head and cry

[Chorus:]
Say we gotta try just a little, take a little, share just a little more
You got to give a little, take a little give a little.... Cause the times them dread....
