We are the world And we've done wrong Through the years We have been around We will be strong Through the problems we bring to ourselves And when the world begins to fall apart Will we give up? When everyone believes that there's no start Will we give up? 'Cause I don't wanna waste another day 'Cause I don't wanna waste another day I hope to God we make a change 'Cause I don't wanna waste another day And if this is hell Then we've made it For ourselves We should hate it Because we've become Everything that brought us down We're going down So we've got to Change our habits If we don't We won't get to have them But we can't seem to shake All the temptations that this cruel world has to offer 'Cause I don't wanna waste another day 'Cause I don't wanna waste another day Digging graves that we've made for ourselves Can we put the shovels down? Or hope God will help us now So please 'Cause I don't wanna waste another day I hope to God we make a change 'Cause I don't wanna waste another day
