Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
It's a matter of time
Before justice will come
It's a matter of time, yeah
Before all walls will be done
It's a matter of time
Before wrongs will be righted
It's a matter of time, yeah
Before all people will be united
[Verse 3]
Let's not wait any longer, yeah
Though the struggles, oh, so hard
Oh, together we got stronger
It's a matter of time
It's a matter of time
[Verse 4]
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Uh-huh (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Yeah
[Verse 5]
It's a matter of time
This is a song about peace
Just a little bit of time
Until freedom will mean free
I don't mean about one side meeting the other side
I mean, normal sides
I'm talking about unity for all people
Whoa, just a matter of time
[Verse 6]
I can't wait too much longer
My frustration's near it's end
I can't hate 'cause I am stronger
It's a matter of time
It's a matter of time
[Verse 7]
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh (Oh yeah)
[Verse 8]
Soon we'll have a peace of mind
In a matter of time
I can't wait too much longer
Will this world ever get better?
[Verse 9]
Just a matter of time, yeah
