There's people dying in the streets Blood on the hands of people who think they're elite There's so much I wanna say So much I have yet to learn about past days It's generations of the same problems I don't really understand People who still find it so hard to understand Is it just turning blind eyes Out of fear of facing truth they know is not right It's generations of the same problems That never burned down They're still around now It's gonna take some time to put this right Unless we take a stand, unless we fight We're never gonna see the change we need so bad We need the kind of world we've never had I hope the good in the world finally takes over We need every soul in the world to stand sober And see it for what it is Now that i'm older I see Things that have always been part of my normality Are not part of everyone's Funny how we've all been living under different suns It's generations of the same problems It's gonna take some time to put this right Unless we take a stand, unless we fight We're never gonna see the change we need so bad We need the kind of world we've never had I hope the good in the world finally takes over We need every soul in the world to stand sober If it was you If it was your father If it was your son What would you do If you were no longer Mother Because of their gun So I feel their pain And it makes me cry Tears fall like rain Hearing them scream why It's gonna take some time to put this right Unless we take a stand, unless we fight We're never gonna see the change we need so bad We need the kind of world we've never had I hope the good in the world finally takes over We need every soul in the world to stand sober And see it for what it is For what it is For what it is
