A child is crying on the tv screen
Reminds us everyday of what has been
Wars are fought without an end in sight
The world's divided black and white
We know what's coming but no one acts
It's time to rise up and face the facts
If we don't try to make our move
There will soon be nothing left to prove
And we don't wanna wait
'Cause the wall's gonna break
And we say
And we all know what to do
Hold on and reach for the sun
One by one we change how we're living
Hold on 'cause it ain't over 'til it's over
Hold on it's never too late
To change our faith so don't you let it go
Hold on 'cause it ain't over 'til it's over
We can work it out
Keep moving on
We can still be strong
Just try to get along
Another city comes tumbling down
Another ocean makes a rumbling sound
Our generation is stained with crime
The next is bound to do the time
I remember what my mama said
That our differences are all in our heads
It doesn't matter what you've done before
We all wanna see what the future has in store
No we don't wanna wait
'Cause the wall's gonna break
Then we'll say
Oh it's time we play our part
Hold on and reach for the sun
One by one
How we're living
'Til it's over
Never too late
So hold on yeah
Over
We can work it out
Keep moving on
We can still be strong
Just try to get along
Ohh we can work it out
Keep moving on
We can still be strong
Yeah
One by one we change how we're living
Yeah
Change how we're living oh
Ain't over 'til it's over no
Don't let it go hold on
Oh we can work it out
Keep moving on
We can still be strong
Just try to get along
