Marcel Cartier - A Better World lyrics

[Verse 1] The power of example, power of ideas Will still live on when you no longer here The power of your word, power of your action That spirit now too often is lacking Most of my heroes died violent d**hs To be truthful, I can't expect no less The goal to be the highest stature of man That means selfless with a forward plan I know that progress requires struggle Has through the centuries of people's troubles But people's muscle and will to win Ultimately define the strength within The Vietnamese beat the USA On just one bowl of rice in a single day Now that's willingness to sacrifice And that's really paying the ultimate price [Chorus] (A Much better world has potential to grow!) It's a better world that we are building now (We building it now!) All my people on the march ain't sittin' down (We ain't sittin' down!) It's a better life that we deserve to live (We deserve to live!) Can you picture a better world than this? [Verse 2] You know you doing right when more and more they talk sh** An indication that you attention stoppin' It's so easy to do sh**loads of talkin' But the majority will never do the walkin' I'm a man of action not merely words And all the non-sense they spew is absurd Do they not understand they fuel the fire? And that revolutionaries don't retire? This the start of a more militant me I'm not on defensive, I'm gonna be Frontline at your door with conviction Center-stage going in with precision Fake rappers wanna imitate a fantasy That sh** is backwards, they need to be on minor league Intrigued? never, and yes I need the cheddar But it's all about survival not a bourgeois kind of measure [Chorus] (A Much better world has potential to grow!) It's a better world that we are building now (We building it now!) All my people on the march ain't sittin' down (We ain't sittin' down!) It's a better life that we deserve to live (We deserve to live!) Can you picture a better world than this?
