Lyrics

Listen, looking outside where the crooks and cops ride
How can I smile when the bad survive while
Good guys die, ain't no one surprised how
The bearer of the gun got a voice like Power
Prisoners of war been in fights inside their mind
But nobody's trying to see it like we preachin' to the blind
The hood got a spell on the shorties
It's the kind of talent you ain't got
The time to not be out on your grind
Man gotta wake up, woman gotta wake up
The stakes are too high to take a seat on the pine
All hands on deck, and if you ain't about to move it
Then you're losing all right to be mad at the lie
Shake a fist at the man in the mirror, demand action
Change won't come if the people lack passion
News flash, pastor, principal, teacher
Families, we gotta do better than what we have been
And we can work it out
We can turn around this system that we're drownin' in
Hold your head high, lift it to the sky
Know that God'll see you through it
But we got to choose and do it, move on
And we can work it out
We can turn around this system that we're drownin' in
Hold your head high, lift it to the sky
Know that God'll see you through it
But we got to choose and do it, move on
I look out on the world and I see people
Who have lost their awareness of being
Committed to any kind of cause at all
There's no unity in the world
You couldn't rally five hundred people to
Sincerely fight for the same common cause
No matter what that cause might be, unless it's dollars
The result of this is of course the chaos that we live in
And we can work it out
We can turn around this system that we're drownin' in
Hold your head high, lift it to the sky
Know that God'll see you through it
But we got to choose and do it, move on
And we can work it out
We can turn around this system that we're drownin' in
Hold your head high, lift it to the sky
Know that God'll see you through it
But we got to choose and do it, move on
And we can work it out
We can turn around this system that we're drownin' in
Hold your head high, lift it to the sky
Know that God'll see you through it
But we got to choose and do it, move on
And we can work it out
We can turn around this system that we're drownin' in
Hold your head high, lift it to the sky
Know that God'll see you through it
But we got to choose and do it, move on
