World, world, world
Where have we been?
What have we done?
Will the story of our future be a new tune?
Or the same old song?
Because who we are
Only history knows
But where we are going
Oh it hasn't fully, fully been told
And it's about time
That we decide together
That our fight for freedom
Cannot last forever
And it's about time
We turn this world on a dime
Listen here, it's about time
Where we've been
Floatin' down a river
With our hands tied
While further downstream
Is where the truth and lies divide
And now it's only right
We put our words on the line
And we decide together baby
That it's about time, yeah
It's about time
That we decide together
That our fight for freedom
Cannot last forever
It's about time
We turn this world on a dime
The world, world, world
It's just people like you and I
But the stage is set for us to amplify
So let's free our minds rather
Than our minds be occupied
We gotta take it back, oh take it back
Take it back, take it back, take it back
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time
And it's about time
That we decide together
That our fight for freedom
Cannot last forever
And it's about time
We turn this world on a dime
The world, world, world
It's just people like you and I
But the stage is set for us to amplify
So let's free our minds rather
Than our minds be occupied
We gotta take it back, oh take it back
Take it back, take it back, take it back
(Take it back, take it back)
So let's free our minds rather
Than our minds be occupied
(Take it back, take it back)
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time
Time, time, time, time
Time, time, time, it's about time
