Lyrics:

World is going wrong and people can't see why
Times are changin' fast, now is the time to try
To put away our differences, see eye to eye
The promised land we ain't but baby it's worth a try

Cocaine dealin' stealin', lived a life of crime
Died the age before he could legally drive
Money is the reson why she's out all night
Of all good things to ask for may God shed his light

Cause livin' is a world affair and lately we ain't livin' right
No matter where you're hangin', hood or the highland
It's a world to world affair

Babies makin' babies just like Sly Stone said,
But that ain't what she's thinkin' when she's in his bed
Brother goes to school so he can stay ahead
If one good kid can make it there's hope in the end

Cause livin' is a world affair and lately we ain't livin' right
No matter where you're hangin', hood or the highland
It's a world to world affair
Oh God!

Move out of sight...
...Just like Sly Stone said...

Livin' is a world affair and lately we ain't livin' right
No matter where you're hangin', hood or the highland
It's a world to world affair
Hey hey yeah, livin' is a world affair, I know, lately we ain't livin' right
There ain't no war, hood or the highland
It's a world to world affair
World to world affair
It's a world to world affair

I know something's going on in the world to world affair
