u.m.a.n. (ie) - listen to your children lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
another neighbourhood meets sorrow
with it scars that never heal
yet the same fate waits tomorrow
tell me were it yours how would you feel?
if you saw the blood stains in the hallways
felt the tears of one who grieves
would more kids they barricade themselves in rooms
too terrified to leave

[pre-chorus]
can you hear your sons and daughters
in their desperation scream?
for they fear the gun that slaughters
k!lls, erases hopes and dreams

[chorus]
listen to your children
for the time to change is here
listen to your children
tell me truly can you hear?
listen to your children
hear them drowning out the crowd
listen to your children
they want solutions not a shroud

[verse 2]
and every time it happens it gets tougher
seems so hard to count the cost
when it’s you who too should suffer
from the weight of all the lives you’ve lost
hear your conscience as she crashes
now morals now just dollars to be found
as you condemn more then to ashes
or bury more below this hallowed ground

[pre-chorus]
see our freedom lie in tatters
your promises and pity hold no weight
action’s all that really matters
so it is for action now we wait

[chorus]
listen to your children
for the time to change is here
listen to your children
tell me truly can you hear?
listen to your children
hear them drowning out the crowd
listen to your children
they want solutions not a shroud

[bridge]
don’t do it for your politics or power
don’t do it for your glory, greed or gain
don’t do it for your temper or your tower
don’t do it for your gory need for fame
do it for the lost who have no voices
do it for the battered bruised and blind
do it for the hopeful with no choices
do it for the loved ones left behind

[chorus]
do it for your children
for the time for change is here
do it for your children
tell me truly can you hear?
do it for your children
hear them drowning out the crowd
do it for your children
they want solutions not a shroud

[chorus]
listen to your children
for the time to change is here
listen to your children
tell me truly can you hear?
listen to your children
hear them drowning out the crowd
listen to your children
they want solutions not a shroud

[outro]
just listen to your children
