Lyrics:

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
