Summer night on the 4th of July and we're hanging outside I take my kids downtown to watch fireworks fly As the light flicker in my daughters eyes I think about the plight of a war torn child And how these same sights and sounds make them cry And how much is this life worth, is what I say to you As I sit here right now, watching the evening news And how much is this life worth, cause it can't be true We're dying over different points of view We're dying over different points of view So how much is this life worth to you It five o-clock and Im rushing home like I always do I call ahead to my wife and kids and say I'll be there soon I put the radio on, and the announcer speaks Of a man rushing home just in time to see His house blown to rubble with his family beneath And how much is this life worth, is what I say to you As I sit here right now, watching the evening news
And how much is this life worth, cause it can't be true We're dying over different points of view We're dying over different points of view So how much is this life worth to you How much is this life worth How much is this life worth How much is this life worth How much is this life worth We say we stand for justice for all, but what about babies when bombs fall How much is their life worth to you And when we say we answer the call of Allah But is it the way of Rasoolullah How much is his life worth to you Yah Allah, help us make dua yeah¦ And how much is this life worth, is what I say to you As I sit here right now, watching the evening news How much is this life worth, cause it can't be true That we're dying over different points of view So how much is this life worth to you So how much is this life worth to you?
