I see it on 
TV watch it everyday 
Men with no conscience don't care who they slay 
Children killing children for insult or greed 
Don't want what they have don't know what they need 
Shot for a dollar or the color of your car 
You try to find justice you won't get far 
Too many families living on the street 
Too many babies with nothing to eat 
To clear the land they build a wall of fire 
To get their way they use a gun for hire 
Just trying to do the best 
I can To live in this heartless land 
So many people doing without 
They have no power no political clout 
Cutting down the forest, killing off the seas 
Don't look to the future they just do what they please 
Chorus repeat 
We got to stand up find another way 
To solve these problems it gets worse every day 
Hand in hand as hard as it seems 
We can save ourselves and our children's dreams 
Chorus repeat 
I'm trying to live we got to learn to forgive 
I'm doing my best - don't you know - to live in this heartless land
