It's in the paper every day
|
|
I see it in the headlines and I feel so sick, yeah
|
|
As another life leaves this world (this world) so full of hate
|
|
But short
|
|
Short on compassion
|
|
Short on humanity
|
|
Asking myself in vain, shaken by the shock,
|
|
"Do we even have a chance?"
|
|
|
|
I don't wanna die
|
|
(I don't wanna kill)
|
|
I don't wanna kill
|
|
(I don't wanna die)
|
|
We are all human.
|
|
Let's start to prove it.
|
|
|
|
I don't wanna die
|
|
(I don't wanna kill)
|
|
I don't wanna kill
|
|
(I don't wanna die)
|
|
We are all human.
|
|
Let's start to prove it.
|
|
|
|
This is a plea for peace (world peace)
|
|
To the oppressors of the world and to,
|
|
To the leaders of nations, corporate profit takers,
|
|
to the everyday citizen
|
|
Greed, envy, fear, hate - the competition has to stop.
|
|
When you see someone down, now's the time to pick them up
|
|
Set your differences aside and never look back, no
|
|
|
|
I don't wanna die
|
|
(I don't wanna kill)
|
|
I don't wanna kill
|
|
(I don't wanna die)
|
|
We are all human
|
|
It's time to prove it.
|
|
|
|
I don't wanna die
|
|
(I don't wanna kill)
|
|
I don't wanna kill
|
|
(I don't wanna die)
|
|
We are all human.
|
|
Let's start to prove it.
|
|
|
|
Isn't everybody tired of the fighting? (hey, hey)
|
|
Isn't everybody tired of the killing? (hey, hey)
|
|
Isn't everybody tired of the dying? (hey, hey)
|
|
Isn't everybody tired of the hatred? (hey, hey)
|
|
Violence(hey, hey).. fighting(hey)... killing(hey)...dying(hey).. aaaaaaah!!

(excerpt from Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech:)
|
|
So even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow,
|
|
I still have a dream
|
|
we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children,
|
|
black men and white men
|
|
Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing
|
|
"Free at last, free at last.
|
|
Thank God Almighty, we are free at last."
|
|
|
|
I don't wanna die
|
|
(I don't wanna kill)
|
|
I don't wanna kill
|
|
(I don't wanna die)
|
|
We are all human
|
|
It's time to prove it.
|
|
|
|
I don't wanna die
|
|
(I don't wanna kill)
|
|
I don't wanna kill
|
|
(I don't wanna die)
|
|
We are all human.
|
|
Let's start to prove it.
|
|
|
|
We are all human
|
|
It's time to prove it.
|
|
We are all human...
