This is a very malicious world Some people just grudge you for ya righteous words And if you try to show some affection They'll try to strip you down to the bone They don't set no example (Chorus) Some people must change dem living (4x) Now-a-days when your walking down the road You must see some fellows hanging around Always always begging you a-money They fight against if you turn them down And them don't have no principle (Chorus 4x) And if you try to help some people You bet they'll try to tear you down Some of them don't like to see you progress Them prefer to see you in distress It's just the way of the system (Chorus 4x) This is a very malicious world Some people just grudge you for ya righteous words And if you try to show some affection They'll try to strip you down to the bone They don't set no example Some people must change them living...
