Oh please don't beg for your life  
  

In these days the beat is militant  
Must be a clash there's no alternative  
In these days nations are militant  
We have slavery under government  
In these days in the firmament  
I look for signs that are permanent  
  
In these days with no love to give  
The world will turn with no one left to live  
  
In these days I don't know what to do  
The more I see the more I'm destitute  
In these days I don't know what to sing  
The more I know the less my tune can swing  
  
In these days you can get no rice  
No razor blades but you can get knife  
In these days see the people run  
They have no food but the boy have gun
