Troubled Times

Seems like every where I go there is a ghetto
Where people are afraid to walk
Mothers spend their time out the window
Praying for their sons and daughters to come home oh

In this area the people seem to be working the hardest
Only to be afraid to return home
And our mothers seem to feel the hurt the most
When they learn that the life of their son is gone
What's going on what's going on I got to be strong

I can't forgive you taking the life of another
Especially when no one did harm to you
Just remember when you commit this kind of action
You won't have far to look because yours come soon
It's coming soon It's coming soon right back to you

I know its tough to go on listen but the good
They will they will survive
Because with God Allah on our side
We don't care about our time
So now you feel you flying high
But the way you live is the way you die
And now it's your mother's turn to cry
Some one tell me what's going on
In this land we got to be strong
Mother your crying cause we are living in
Troubled times
