Lyrics

It's time to put away our
Guns and ammunition
We can do it if we try
I tell you what the reason
Causing all the friction
Discrimination is a crime
We can do it
If we try
War and hatred
Pass us by
We can do it if we try
We can do it if we try
Let war and hate just pass us by
If we try
Right now! ah ha ha
My generation
God help the children
My generation
God help the children
If parents only had more time for understanding
The youth won't have to turn to drugs
There's only one solution
Solving all the problem
We talking universal love
'Cause we can do it
If we try
War and hatred
Pass us by
We can do it if we try
We can do it if we try
Let war and hate just pass us by
If we try
Right now! ah ha ha
My generation
God help the children
My generation
God help the children
It's time to stop and think about
What you done to others
And if it's good we'll go ahead
And JAH will sure protect you
But if it's bad just watch your step
Cause you will surely stumble
Remember who inherit the land
The meek and very humble
We can do it if we try
Let war and hate just pass us by
My generation
God help the children
My generation
God help the children
Wheel and turn Mister Banton
Part of the original ghetto crew
Yes David, all the way from Handsworth
Wha you a sey Boss?
Gwarn
Easy
Stop the fuss and stop the fight
I'm positive that we can do it
Equal rights to Black and White
It ain't so hard to do it
Live as one under moon and sun
Everyone I know that we can do it
Open you heart and live as one
I know that we can
We can do it
If we try
War and hatred
Pass us by
Throw down your guns and pick up the love
We want you all to do it
Throw down your guns and pick up
We want you all to do it
Throw down your guns and pick up the love
We want you all to do it
Throw down your guns and pick up the love
We want you all to do it
Throw down your guns and pick up the love
We want you all to do it
