Ain't seen a night, things work out right, go by
Things on my mind, and I just don't have the time, and it don't seem right
Ain't seen a day, that I don't hear people say, they know they're gonna' die
This may seem a little bit crazy, but I don't think you should be so lazy
If you think you've heard this before, well, stick around I'm gonna' tell you more

One just like the other, sin's a good man's brother, but is that right?
You tell me that I don't, then I say I won't, but then I might
You said this is the way it's supposed to be, but it just don't seem right to me, and that's outta' sight
Some folks need an education, don't give up, or we'll loose the nation
You say we need a revolution? it seems to be the only solution
