Now Or Never by Israel Joseph I Maybe you never thought about it  It was never on your mind  But it's now, or never Waste no more time It's now, or never  Open up your eyes Time to make a decision Got to make it now  As far as I can see  We're gonna be alright But it's now, or never Waste no more time It's now, or never  I know we'll survive It's now, or never Open up your eyes  Now, or never Waste no more time

Crisis by Israel Joseph I Crisis It's a worldwide crisis You gotta hold on to yourself in this time if you wanna know who you are Don't tell me what I need Don't tell me what to say I'm living this as my creed I'll gladly pay the price that must be paid I know myself, see who I am Fall on the ground, get up again Burn the fire, let's take a stand Now the world's falling apart, what's your plan? In this crisis It's a worldwide crisis You gotta hold on to yourself in this time if you wanna know who you are Sickness and disease, fires burning in the trees The youth are crying for change while the poor live on their knees Dependent on making signs Now they're going to be designed Where eyes look like a clock that's counting down and running out of time Crisis You gotta hold on to yourself in this time if you wanna know who you are So take cover quick, I heard the bomb is gonna drop The water tastes like oil, when will this ever stop?  Set it all on fire and everything is going to burn A lake of fire is what will be, when will they ever learn about this... Crisis It's a worldwide crisis You gotta hold on to yourself in this time if you wanna know who you are Radiation, coral bleaching, bellies full of trash, all the whales are beaching 75% of all the insects are extinct, soon you're gonna wonder why you didn't ever think about this... Crisis It's a worldwide crisis You gotta hold on to yourself in this time if you wanna know who you are The oxygen is never pure Suck it from a can and beg for more Cry for help and die before fresh air can never reach your door  Not again what have we done?  Being treated like they never cared Never give up, never fear, and keep your positive faith, in this... All together, we're gonna win We've got the numbers, we're gonna win All together, all who gather, all together Crisis It's a worldwide crisis You gotta hold on to yourself in this time if you wanna know who you are

Hard Time Dignity  by Israel Joseph I Living on the streets there ain't no work today Nobody wants to hire, and they don't want to pay I lay down to rest they, say be on your way Or will kick you and we'll beat you on the ground where you lay I don't want to be another tale Some homeless person living in jail I am still a human being with my dignity, my dignity "Remain where you are and face the ground" I don't want to be here, let me go right now Who made you the judge and the jury and the executioner? I don't think I care for you So next time you see me; try to help me instead; of opening my skull with these blows to my head I don't want to know you and I don't even care So next time you see me; remember "what's fair is fair" Can we build on what we had before? Can we turn it into so much more? Make a decision We need a brighter vision Living on the streets there ain't no work today Nobody wants to hire, and they don't want to pay I lay down to rest they say be on your way Or will kick you and we will beat you on the ground where you lay
