World Peace

Boogie Down Productions

World peace or world talk?! 

Yeah
One  two  three  four! 

If we really want world peace 
And we want it right now 
We must make up our minds to take it
Right now! 
If we really want world peace 
And we want it right now 
Right now! 
We must make up our minds to take it

Take it right now
Don't hesitate! (world peace) 
You want world peace? (world peace) (peace take it) 
Or world talk? 

(World peace) 
(World peace) 
(World peace) 

Yo, a lot of people are under the assumption 
That peace, is soft or somethin' 
We must begin to reprogram our thought 
From, how we were taught 
Back in school, and our tv screens 
Strength, is always mean 
Love, is always soft 
And peace is too peaceful 
When all are equal 
Sit back, and read the papers 
About the murderers, thieves, and rapists 
We depend on police for justice 
But when do we say, enough is enough 
Right now, and call their bluff 
It's not a matter of frontin' like you're tough 
It's a matter of takin' yours 
And livin' universal laws 
'Cause those laws, cannot be bribed 
Nor changed, or paid on the side 
You must come correct and walk straight 
More love, less and less hate 
When you walk, walk with authority 
Tell the negative people, don't bother me 
Move your face away, I ain't with it 
In a minute, I'm gonna hit it! 

If we really want world peace 
And we want it right now 
We must make up our minds to take it
Right now! 
If we really want world peace 
World peace
And we want it right now 
Or world talk 
We must make up our minds to take it

Break it down! 
Take it, yeah! 
World peace
Yeah come in.

Crash, smash, don't ask 
When the negative disrupts the class 
How much longer? get stronger 
The battle is getting longer 
World, peace, or world talk 
Do we run? or do we walk? (charge) 
If you want world peace, take it 
'Cause a lot of our leaders fake it (fraud) 
It's similar to Armageddon 
When the positive people stop lettin' 
The negative, control, how we live 
Listen to the music I give! 

If we really want world peace 
And we want it right now 
We must make up our minds to take it
Take it! 
If we really want world peace 
And we want it right now 
World peace (right now!) or world talk? 
We must make up our minds to take it

Take it! 
If we really want world peace 
And we want it right now 
World peace! 
We must make up our minds to take it
Right now! 
If we really want world peace 
And we want it right now 
Come in now
We must make up our minds to take it
World peace or world talk?! 

If we really want world peace 
Yes I do 
And we want it right now 
When can I get it? 
We must make up our minds to take it
Come in! 
If we really want world peace 
That's it 
And we want it right now 
Right now 
We must make up our minds to take it

I want it now! 
If we really want world peace 
I want it right now! 
And we want it right now 
We need it right now! 
We must make up our minds to take it
No talk world peace! 
If we really want world peace 
Peace!
