Paroles: Uwe Banton. Other. Mankind.

Sometimes I used to sit down and wonder
Wonder what is really, really going on
Some people are starving, some dying for hunger - all over the world
While others have everything in abundance

Mankind, you better know yourself
Cause in time to come it's gonna be dread
Mankind, you better know yourself
Cause in time to come it's gonna be dread - dreader than dread

They say the fittest of the fittest , yes they shall survive
Give thanks unto JAH cause he keeps us alive
Ooohh - those things are written in prophesy
So we don't need none of their, none of their ideology

Mankind, you better know yourself
Cause in time to come it's gonna be dread
Mankind, you better know yourself
Cause in time to come it's gonna be dread - dreader than dread

Starvation
Distruction
Ooohhh - desolation
A whole heap a, a whole heap a corruption
In high and low places

Mankind, you better know yourself
Cause in time to come it's gonna be dread
Mankind, you better know yourself
Cause in time to come it's gonna be dread - dreader than dread
