Children cryin; from the heat Don't they know they belong? People fightin; can't compete Don't they know that they're wrong? Time is standin still on the ground Yea time takes us on a trip Round 'n round our minds Oh pictures of a dream All it does is cloud all the lies Let's all join our hands Raise them together Fight for the lives that are real Lets all join our hands Raise them together Fight for the light that we feel Whoa yea Nations plan; hearts are weak Don't they know we belong? Years of growing; reach the peak Don't they know that they're wrong? Life surrounds us in many different ways All we see Are switches there to take it all away Oh pieces of a dream All it does is cloud all the lies Let's all join our hands Raise them together Fight for the lives that are real Lets all join our hands Raise them together Fight for the right that we feel Is this the way We treat one another? Days filled with hope Lives filled with fear Why must we live At war with our brothers? When we could live Our future at last Let's all join our hands Raise them together Fight for the lives that are real Oh Lets all join our hands Raise them together Fight for the right that we feel Let's all join our hands Raise them together Fight for the lives that are real
