How Long

How long must I get going on?
How long must I get going on?
To see all this hate in the world
How long? Oh, tell me, tell me, tell me, how long?

I told my brother, the other day
He said, "brother, please gimme a little fix"
I look at him and said, "brother, don't leave me, don't leave me"
How long? How long? How long?
Must you keep something like this

You know I be for suffering
They looking for something, something to look up to
They looking for a change
How long? How long? How long? How long?

Well, what I'm gonna do, what I'm gonna say?
America, please hear me
Make this road right, ooh, people
