Lyrics
People are in confusion, oh yeah
The world is full of fear, can't you feel it?
I see conflict all around us
Can anybody out there hear?
Hear the people crying
Oh, ay, say, ay
You know we got to stand down
So everybody can stand up
You know it's time for us
To show that everybody got to give love
You know we got to stand down
So everybody can stand up
You know it's time for us
To show that everybody got to give love
I see the poor and hungry
I see the pain they bear, oh yeah
Where is the hope they long for?
Does anybody out there care?
I hear the people crying
Oh, ay, say, ay
You know we got to stand down
So everybody can stand up
You know it's time for us
To show that everybody got to give love
You know we got to stand down
So everybody can stand up
You know it's time for us
To show that everybody got to give love
Tell me, why can't?
Why can't we find a reason
I wanna say
Why can't we find one cause
For everyone to come together
Save the world
And give this world a voice
Can't you hear the people crying?
Oh, ay, say, ay
You know we got to stand down
So everybody can stand up
You know it's time for us
To show that everybody got to give love
You know we got to stand down
So everybody can stand up
You know it's time for us
To show that everybody got to give love
You know we got to stand down
So everybody can stand up
You know it's time for us
To show that everybody got to give love
You know we got to stand down
So everybody can stand up
You know it's time for us
