Universal Struggle (feat. Brownman)-Solar/Guru/Brown Man

It's a struggle It's got a hold on me The universal struggle It's got a hold It's a struggle It's got a hold on me The universal struggle It's got a hold From Sofia, Bulgaria to the New York interior You see poverty and crime throughout these areas And people with tattered clothes, babies from battered homes Pure hard times, just they're dying from that alone From U.S. shores, to countries overseas This universal struggle's got a hold on me Every city's got a ghetto, the prisons are filled The police and the military in position to kill And I just wanna live my life with less pain Seems like only a few moves left ,in this chess game I guess change has gotta come soon I can't live my life in fear waiting for doom And actions of course speak louder than words It's much harder when you standing in a crowd to be heard So I walk alone and look forward to better days I'm not the same anymore, I endured with better ways It's a struggle It's got a hold on me The universal struggle It's got a hold It's a struggle It's got a hold on me The universal struggle It's got a hold From the hoods of Los Angeles to Toronto, Canada You can picture the struggle without no camera The wealthy get wealthier, cause that's the aim The less fortunate get desperate, and that's a shame Who's to blame we complain, nobody responds So our only alternative is to try to move on And show resilience in the face of danger Determination and strength to replace the anger Great people of the world rise up from despair Historically our kind has always been here To lead effectively when we need the recipe For peace, so we educate the seed respectfully And this is how we beat the struggle Staying tuned and keep out the reach of trouble The bloodshed, the oppression, the violence, the famine We can trace it through various events we examine It's a struggle It's got a hold on me The universal struggle It's got a hold It's a struggle It's got a hold on me The universal struggle It's got a hold
