People, listen, people When did we stray off the way? They’re building walls between us And expect us all to pay We’re not listening to our sisters And our brothers suffer, too Before we move on further There is work we’ve got to do People choosing hate To hide their insecurity People who won’t look Beyond their own reality People blaming people Over things that make no sense They ‘d rather point the finger Than reach out a helping hand We say we’re going to live together Yet we fail to understand People, listen, people It’s time we start to make amends!
