Hope Slips Away (The World Is Ours To Change)

Take a look around and tell me what it is you see

Corruption and intolerance in a world that's fueled by greed

Hatred and selfishness like neighbors at war

And when was the last time we asked what it is we're fighting for?

How long have we been living without purpose?

While judgement's held over our heads

Blindly we accept this without question

And slowly wait for our days to end

Who will stand up and make a difference?

We only have ourselves to blame

And surely this is not what we're made for

When will we realize the world is ours to change?

Each and every day is still the same

And I can't just look away

We're standing on the brink

And I for one will not stand by and watch as our hope slips away

Who will stand up and make a difference?

We only have ourselves to blame

And surely this is not what we're made for

When will we realize the world is ours to change?

You see all of this corruption and senseless injustice

No matter where your eyes turn

You cannot ignore the truth

And so I'm asking you to stand with me

When will we stand and say enough is enough?

Open your eyes and take a stand instead of giving up

When will we stand and say enough is enough?

Open your eyes and take a stand instead of giving up

Who will stand and make a difference?

We only have ourselves to blame

Who will stand and make a difference?
