"He that will not apply new remedies
Must expect new evils
For time is the greatest innovator."
-Sir Francis Bacon
Walkin around in my boxers
Thinkin about the future
Thinkin about the way things ought to be
When a man
Yes a man
In my head he says to me
Get yer pants on boy
It's time to do this thing
Been doin time in my own way
Not much of a future
But still the best that I could do it seems
I'm just a man
Just one man
But I have so many dreams
Of a better world
It's time to do this thing
It's time to rise up
Stand up
And start this revolution
It's time to put up
Or shut up
It's time to do this thing
So if you wanna make this world a better place
It's time to stand up
It's time to do this thing
Who told me to be afraid of you?
And who taught you to looking down on me?
Who got us to turning away from each other, brother?
Tell me, who did this thing?
And in the fight for our own way
Who taught us to fight the wrong way?
Who got us to stop looking out for one another, brother?
Tell me who did this thing?
It's like the reason
Yes the reason
Done been wiped clean from our minds
It's like the caring
And the sharing
From the heart's been left behind
Instead this madness
Gotta fight the madness
That's taking over humankind
Gotta find a new way
Talking bout the true way
People, I think at last it's time
It's time to rise up
Stand up
And start this revolution
It's time to put up
Or shut up
It's time to do this thing
So if you wanna make this world a better place
It's time to stand up
It's time to do this thing
It's time to rise up
Stand up
And start this revolution
It's time to put up
Or shut up
It's time to do this thing
So if you wanna make this world a better place
It's time to stand up
It's time to do this thing
(Start the flow)
Whatcha gonna do
Whatcha gonna do lòc?
Take it day by day?
Waste away in the bong smoke?
Let the fantasy of a better way die?
Wait til this is over
And we'll all get high
Cuz you talk like you're tough
Hard enuff to pack steel
Tote a gun
But you run
When the fight gets REAL
Steppin up to another
Just like anyone can
Will you run for cover
When the fight's at hand?
Cuz you're hard
When the man's got you facing your brother
Stand like a man
When you're hurtin each other
School's out and another brother's been taught
Plugged into the system with the lies you done bought
What's it gonna be lòc?
Whatcha gonna do?
Are you still hard when the revolution calls you?
True as my words NOT lame as my rhyme
Will you you be there when it comes time?
It's time to get up
Stand up
And start this revolution
It's time to put up
Or shut up
It's time to do this thing
So if you wanna make this world a better place
It's time to stand up
It's time to do this thing
It's time to get up
Stand up
And start this revolution
It's time to put up
Or shut up
It's time to do this thing
And if you wanna make this world a better place
It's time to stand up
It's time to do this thing
It's time to stand up
It's time to do this thing
It's time to do this thing.
