The human race is a terrible face
for this planet we call home.
It's such a disgrace that we erase
all the beauty that we know.

I ask myself why and I arrive
at it's just to survive.
And if that my friends' is our end
then we might as well just die.

See the killing fields see the burning men
see the rends in the Earth.
See your fellow man kill his fellow man
for absolutely no worth.

See the mangled limbs see the hollow eyes
see the future has been changed.
If you see these things then see them clear
and show the world it's pain.

Cause in this life, there are things to despise.
Like hatred, violence, and all the filthy lies.
It's time we noticed, today is our cue.
So let me hear you say, "What we're gonna do".

A homeless man, a starving child, a single mom of five.
See them struggle day by day
as they all try to survive.

See the lost and alone lose all hope
as the future slowly fades.
And if you see these things then see them clear
and show the world it's pain.

Cause in this life, there are things to despise.
Like hatred, violence, and all the filthy lies.
Its time we took notice, and today is our cue.
So let me hear you say, "What we're gonna do".

"What we're gonna do"
"What we're gonna do"
"What we're gonna do"

"We will share,"
"We will care,"
"We will shape,"
"We will change,"
"We will be the candles, the light in the dark."
"Now hear our words, they come straight from the heart."

See the politicians work for themselves find out they're all the same.
Hear the false promises they all give
as they play their little games.

Watch the news and all the views
they try to feed to you.
But you should know that what they show
is no where near the truth.

Now what you ask is our task
the message of the day?
Is to see these things and see them clear
and show the world it's pain.

Cause in this world, there are things to despise.
Like hatred, violence, and all the filthy lies.
We have noticed & taken up our cue.
Now hear the words we say, "This is what we'll do".

Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoy.

-Chris
