Oh, oh, oh, Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Oh!
Let me tell you about a dream that I had just the other day,
I was walking down the streets, right next to me: Marvin Gaye,
And I walked up to him and I said: Man how you doing? And I thought that you were gone,
He said: All Day I just had a comeback baby âcause we got to write a song,
He said: Iâve been no much in this world for now but I know that Itâs illâs going so wrong,
Seems like you donât forgot, about whatâs going on,
I said: Marvin, man, what youâre talking about? We donât needed to pass to this,
He said: You donât had the view that I had, let me tell you what I see,
Marvin said: I see babies around the world who donât have nothing to eat,
Marvin said: I see children working sun after sun down so you can wear those shoes on your feet
Little by little, tangos been beat down to pick up some trees,
High rising water, causing slaughter, behind your rising decrees,
Mothers and fathers, sons and their daughters catching paralyzing to see,
And I donât even want to mention what Jah has done to the seas,
Marvin said, marvin said, marvin said,
Whatâs going on, whatâs going on, whatâs going on,
In the world today? [X4]
Then as we kept on walking,
Marvin kept talking,
Speaking his wisdom to me,
Then he vanished to other side, now standing to my right,
Was the late great Bob Marley,
I said: This is too much for me to believe,
This canât be true, my eyes must decease,
Iâm not ready for this message that Iâm about to receive,
It does to get hard under; itâs hard to breathe,
He said: Look all around you, all men are poor,
No many rich yet so many poor,
No more good women so many whores,
Thereâs no love to be found anymore,
He said: Many of them are Rasta, but they are soldier,
Fighting in a war for our great god Jahova,
You got to let the people know that is not over,
Give this message out: What we need is more love!
We donât need, no more trouble,
In our world today, in our world today,
In our world today, in our world today [X2]
