Early morning,hear the angry voices rise
Some people starin'with hatred in their eyes
While across town in a mansion on the hill
Another empty plate,a childhood growing still
It's a bitter seed that this old world has sown.
They judge the color,the god to whom you pray
They drag you down for what you think and say
The lonely child cries in a broken home
Lost and forgotten,left to face it all alone
These are the storms that we have always known.
Oh,why can't we have a little more love for one another?
Oh,why can't we show some respect and trust each other?
Oh,why can't we build our children a beautiful world?
Tell me why,tell me why, tell me why?
The bottle shatters,the needle takes its toll
A stolen future taking its control
A silent prayer behind a trembling door
Why doesn't anybody help?they ask once more
Is a helping hand too much to ask for?
Oh,why can't we have a little more love for one another?
Oh,why can't we show some respect and trust each other?
Oh,why can't we build our children a beautiful world?
Tell me why,tell me why, tell me why?
But don't you worry'bout a thing today
Don't let your hope just drift away
'Cause every sunrise,a new chance to start
To change the world right from your heart
Yes,every sunrise, right from your heart!
Oh,why can't we have a little more love for one another?
Oh,why can't we show some respect and trust each other?
Oh,why can't we build our children a beautiful world?
Tell me why,tell me why...
We gotta build them a beautiful world...
Yes,we gotta build it, from the ground up, girl and boy...
A little more love,a little more joy...
Rise up now...rise up...
