They say you got to choose your side and
when it's done…nobody right, nobody wrong.
It ended in a great big fight and
when it's done…nobody right, nobody wrong.
Conflict, each and every day
at home and in the streets
and in my soul and everyway
it's hard to keep the faith when I feel so far away
times I feel connected
times I'm running away
but woah, woah can't you see
all the sickness, hunger and poverty
war on the land and a war in the seas
woah, war is a painful thing
but the one argument none of us can hide
is the one that's raging down deep inside
tryin' a make a point, or have the last word
but most the time people just trying to be heard
(chorus)
but how many people never ever broke a rule and
how many people tryin' a to get the kids to school and
how many people pray they only find a job and
how many people are afraid of gettin' robbed but
woah, woah nobody knows and
woah, woah only God knows
numbers escalate wall street crime rate
from the Baghdad streets to my city by the bay, hey
(chorus)
and I say
Can say what you mean and
Do you mean what you mean what you say
Every single day
reach out a hand to somebody needs a hand and
reach out a heart to somebody torn apart
it's hard, this livin'- this life we been given
locked in your soul or locked up in prison
remember you got to reach high to be risen
the day you let it go is the day you are forgiven …
(chorus)
One man got a jet fighter and
The other got a song
nobody right, nobody wrong
