If I were rich,
I would spend every dime
Making this world a better place
For all of yours and mine
Keep it safe for the children
So they can walk these streets
Without facing any danger
More love is what they need
Is anybody listening?
My pockets are empty,
but I have a heart of gold
I've got this feeling that I
need to make a change
But I can't do it on my own
Can somebody help me?
Why do I feel so lonely?
I can't be the only one
who thinks this way
Don't wanna feel helpless,
I don't wanna complain less
And I'm not the only one,
let me hear you say yeah
Cause you're my brother,
you're my sister
Let's make home a better place,
say yeah
Yeah, yeah, say yeah
Gun violence is still on the rise
Can't pass the laws to
slow it down
Middle wage barely pays the rent
Cause there's no decent
jobs around
Building more prisons,
by closing schools
And genetically modified foods
The cost of getting an education
For fu ture generations
is too damn high
I never was the type
To stand on a sofa
and speak what's on my mind
I can't be silenced
and expect to see a change
Got to find the courage to mend
Can somebody help me?
Why do I feel so lonely?
I can't be the only one
who thinks this way
Don't wanna feel helpless
I'll do more and complain less
If I'm not the only one
Let me hear you say yes
Cause you're my brother
And you're my sister
Let's pick home a better place,
Say yeah, yeah, yeah,
say yeah
I just wanna make a change
I don't see myself the same
Don't you want to see a change
Stand up,
let your voice be heard today
We don't have to be afraid
Together, we'll make this
world a better place
I just wanna make a change
I don't see myself
the same
Won't just sit here and complain
Not tomorrow, but today
Don't you wanna see a change?
Stand up, let your voice be heard today
We don't have to be afraid
Together we'll make this world a better place
