It's about time
Oh people

When you're so messed up you don't know what to do
When I go on home straighten yourself out
You know people don't want no damn fool about

And it's about time
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time

And I knew I had to stop
And I knew I had to stop

I just didn't know how to do
And I knew I had to stop hurting myself
