The holy war is growing, opposing forces pony up The origins of which have been historically ignored [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) Our foreign policy is meddling in some democracy Upholding an aristocracy of secret terrorist cells [Lyrics Born] (RIGHT NOW!) The global poverty that we accept so commonly Turns people into property, one step away from hell [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) Health care battles, bioengineering For the worldwide scare of the plague that we're fearing [Lyrics Born] (RIGHT NOW!) They have the right to put your life under Surveillance [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) They got the right to lock us up, we don't obey 'em [Lyrics Born] (RIGHT NOW!) Modern education don't prepare the youth [*both*] (RIGHT NOW!) [RIGHT NOW!] Do what you gotta do! [Lyrics Born] (RIGHT NOW!) There's people shootin' at people that's throwin Stones [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) There's a movement of evil across the globe [*both*] RIGHT NOW is where we at, what comes around goes around TIME FOR ACTION BEFORE THE LAST TRUMPET SOUNDS! [Humming and ad-libs] [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) Opposing forces pony up for a cause so glorious But he who stands alone with justice, none touches [Lyrics Born] (RIGHT NOW!) The only option we can profit from is movement Toward the positive progressive thought that's rooted up in consciousness [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) Gra** roots run deep, troops do Diffuse confusion stewed by rude groups loose [Lyrics Born] (RIGHT NOW!) We can benefit if we can pool our energy collectively Project it in a direction used effectively [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) We have the opportunity for self-improvement [Lyrics Born] (RIGHT NOW!) We can reinforce the strength of the family unit [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) Our community, it must support the youth [*both*] (RIGHT NOW!) [RIGHT NOW!] Do what you gotta do [Lateef] (RIGHT NOW!) There's people looking for people with common goals [Lyrics Born] (RIGHT NOW!) There's a movement of unity across the globe [*both*] RIGHT NOW is where we at, what comes around goes around TIME FOR ACTION BEFORE THE LAST TRUMPET SOUNDS! [Whispered as many times, while DJ Shadow cuts and scratches] Watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out-watch out Watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out-watch out
