All I hear is voices in the crowd
Though they only whisper though they frown
People saying "oh its such a shame"
Still they only look to pass the blame

[bridge]
If we can find a way to work things out
The only way to start is to start now

(look into a better place, better place)
[Chorus]
When are we gonna stand up as people
Realize as people we're all equal
We don't want no world war sequel
For the love of god think of the people
When are we gonna stand up as people
Realize as people we're all equal
We don't want no world war sequel
For the love of god think of the people

Children always learn by what they see
So we gotta practice what we preach
Don't you know if that's life the game of life
That we abuse when we choose to fight

If we can find a way to work things out
The only way to start is to start now

(look into a better place, better place)
[chorus]
When are we gonna stand up as people
Realize as people we're all equal
We don't want no world war sequel
For the love of the god think of the people
When are we gonna stand up as people
Realize as people we're all equal
We don't want no world war sequel
For the love of the god think of the people

I pray before I sleep at night
That ill wake to find a clear blue sky

When are we gonna stand up as people
Realize as people we're all equal
We don't want no world war sequel
For the love of the god think of the people
(for the love of god think of the people)
When are we gonna stand up as people
Realize as people we're all equal
We don't want no world war sequel
For the love of the god think of the people (repeat to fade)
