Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's about time to clean out the waters
Sisters, wives, mothers, and daughters
Can't you feel the planet getting hotter?
How can you sit back and watch your own slaughter?
[Verse 2]
Old white men have had their turn
Thousands of years, what have we learned?
The hurricanes churn and the wildfires burn
We're mourning our sons, they're forging more guns
[Verse 3]
It's about time, it's about time, it's about time
It's about time, it's about time, it's about time
It's about earth, it's about life
It's about saving the world, we've got to unite now
It's about time
[Verse 4]
It's about time we care for the living
Time to stop blaming and start forgiving
Who wrote the Bible? Took out the Goddess?
What has it taught us? Where has it brought us?
[Verse 5]
Children in cages, shot dead in school
How long before we let women rule?
It's about time to listen to your mother
Love one another, care for each other
[Verse 6]
It's about time, it's about time, it's about time
It's about time, it's about time, it's about time
It's about choice, it's about rights
It's about facing the darkness
Lift up your lights now
It's about time
[Verse 7]
It's about time to shift this paradigm
(It's about time)
It's about time to shift this paradigm
(It's about time) (It's about time)
It's about time to shift this paradigm
(It's about time) (It's about time)
[Verse 8]
Oh, it's about time, it's about time, it's about time
It's about time, it's about time, it's about time
It's about choice, it's about rights
It's about facing the darkness, lift up your lights now
[Verse 9]
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time
Hey
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time (It's about time)
It's about time
It's about time
[Verse 10]
It's about time to shift this paradigm
(It's about time)
It's about time to shift this paradigm
(It's about time)
It's about time to shift this paradigm
(It's about time)
