Check out the real situation 
G                   C 
Nation war against nation 
G                   D  Em             C 
Where did it all begin, when will it end? 
        G                 D                    G      C 
Well it seem like total destruction the only solution  
                   G       C                 G   C 
And there ain't no use, no one can stop them now  
         G     C                  G   C 
Ain't no use nobody can stop them now 
 
Give them an inch they take a yard 
Give them yard they take a mile 
Once a man and twice a child, and everything is just for a while 
It seem like total destruction the only solution  
 
And there ain't no use, no one can stop them now  
Ain't no use, nobody can stop them now 
Ain't no use, no one can stop them now 
Ain't no use, no one can stop them now 
 
Check in the real situation (check it out, check it out) 
Nation fight against nation 
Where did this all begin, where will it end? 
Well it seem like total destruction the only solution 
Oh, no use, can't stop them 
Ain't no use, can't stop them 
Ain't no use, no one can't stop them now 
Can't stop them now, no one can stop them now  
Ain't no use, no one can't stop them now 
Everybody's stuck, ain't no use, ain't no use 
Ain't no use, you even try 
Ain't no use, got to say bye bye 
Ain't no use, ain't no 
Ain't no use, no one can stop them now 
No one can stop them now... 
 
 
Paz... Jah Bless!!!
