Lyrics

We are living in a serious time What a dangerous time Wow Ninja! Don't let the devil blow your mind Do you hear I and I, black people? The time is so serious, cantankerous and dangerous (dangerous, danger) Is only in the Father, you know I put my trust ('Cause mi nuh trust mankind) The time is so serious, cantankerous and dangerous (Wha' really a gwan now, Tibet?) All over the world everyone is in a heated rush Inna a heated rush Yes, it hard but you haffi take it with tender touch Each and every ghetto youth waan get big up If you waan get big up and if you waan fi live up Read your Bible and think 'bout God nuff Think 'bout God and then you get God up If it's Shabba, mi know say that me nuh cruff Chat pon the riddim and born as a cruff Tell the world say a mi a hot stuff The time is so serious, cantankerous and dangerous (The same thing again man. Make them nuh look man?) Is only in the Father, you know I put my trust (God alone man, the salvation last forever) The time is so serious, cantankerous and dangerous (Mhmm) All over the world everyone is in a heated rush (Mi look man and mi see, wha' mi see?) Revelation a reveal, and it a open to the people dem Let me tell you Mi say, nations and nations, father against son, mother against daughter again Unuh let me tell you Revelation a reveal, and unuh look and unuh listen mi friend Let me tell you Turn your eyes onto Jah and a so fi your life nah go end Let me tell you The time is so serious, cantankerous and dangerous Is only in the Father, you know I put my trust The time is so serious, cantankerous and dangerous All over the world everyone is in a heated rush Inna a heated rush Better day, no matter wha' the world waan say Better day, just hope and pray for a better day Better day, go tell them say, "we dance to Reggae" Better day, tell dem, dem haffi hope and pray Better day, nah come your way If it's Shabba under a militantly I can read, a right yah so me can pray Without the Bible each and every day Almighty Jah stand up and a It's not everything good fi hear good fi talk I don't trust no shadow after dark They will walk and talk, eat and drink with you Pretend as if they are with you But I won't let no one harm me And I won't try to harm anyone But when you think it's peace and safety It's a sudden destruction The time is so serious, cantankerous and dangerous Is only in the Father, you know I put my trust The time is so serious, cantankerous and dangerous All over the world everyone is in a heated rush
