It's easy money for an easy show Don't make waves or let your feelings show You made us into something we never wanted to be You ask for nothin', you just simply control Move our bodies, hold on tightly to our souls And oh-so slowly I can feel the change in me Gotta be so strong, so strong just to carry on (In this world) Gotta be so strong, so strong just to carry on (In this world) Laid your bets, drew your starting line Issued papers now I know my race, my creed, my kind And I can see no reason why it has to be this way I can see an answer, I can see a time When money changes, it makes it all seem so worthwhile And love takes over, fills up the need in me, yeah Gotta be so strong, so strong just to carry on (In this world) Gotta be so strong, so strong just to carry on (In this world) Oh (Be so strong) Oh, in this world (Be so strong) You just got to hold on (In this world) Gotta be so strong, so strong (Be so strong) Just to carry on (In this world) Gotta be so strong, so strong (Be so strong) Just to carry on (In this world) (Be so strong) (In this world) (Be so strong) (In this world)
