Serious Times

And I said, these are some serious times

All I can see around us is just violence and crime

Full time for us to centralize, socialize and realize

To let the sun shine throughout every day

Let the moon shine through the peaceful nights

This is seven times rise

And seven time fall

But I don't really believe in the falling things at all

'Cause life continues as it goes

If you really want to know the truth

Half the truth isn't bein' told

No, no, no, no, no, no

So I said, these are some serious times (Serious times)

All I can see around us is just violence and crime

Full time for us to centralize, socialize and realize

So let the sun shine throughout every day

Let the moon shine through the peaceful night

This is seven times rise

And seven times fall

But I don't really believe in the falling things at all

'Cause life continues as it goes

If you really want to know the truth

Half the truth isn't bein' told

No, no, no, no, no, no

So sometimes you think it's peace and safety

It could be a fast sudden destruction

Said, when you wake up this morning

You better give thanks

You don't know if you gonna live to see tomorrow

Life is much more precious than gold

Yeah, yeah, and if the truth hasn't been told

So I said, these are some serious times (Serious times)

All I can see around us is just violence and crime

Full time for us to centralize, socialize and realize

Sit on the corner

Watch how you hang out on the corner

I see a giant van, she gwaan pan di corner

On the corner, the youths, them really no want no order

And stray them go stray and left the border

'Cause a domino them she dem gone out, they gon' play

And then car come and shots start to spray

All the innocent lives get taken away

So I said, these are some serious times (Serious times)

All I can see around us is just violence and crime

Full time for us to centralize, socialize and realize

So let the sun shine throughout every day

Let the moon shine through the peaceful nights

This is seven times rise
