This World Songtext

von Slam, Tyrone Palmer

On a television screen Visions of hatred unrest and deceit
A man lashes out with his fists
Full of anger
So caught up in his own beliefs
The revolution will be televised this time around
It will be bought and sold
Don't switch it off
Don't shut it out
The truth can hurt
But now it must be told
Mighty forces lying ? victims dying
Mothers crying in the street
They won't stop lying ? we won't stop trying
We have to live a life of peace
In this world
Will you take the hand of your fellow man?
In this world
Only you believe what your eyes can see
In this world
Will you take the hand of your fellow man?
In this world
Only you believe what your eyes can see
In this world ? This world
A shot rings out on a busy street
More chaos, destruction and despair
A crowd gathers there, full of hate and fear
For a world that doesn't care
There's refugees the same as me
But just ahead and in a future time
The difference is that war and famine
Never left their shores like mine
Mighty forces lying ? victims dying
Mothers crying in the street
They won't stop lying ? we won't stop trying
We have to live a life of peace
In this world
Will you take the hand of your fellow man?
In this world
Only you believe what your eyes can see
In this world
Time to stand and fight ? d?you believe its right?
In this world
Will you take the hand of your fellow man?
In this world
There's a story talked about
The risk ten-fold
We'll find a better way
We can summon mighty force
Together strong
We'll reach a brighter day
Now if you can see how its meant to be
There's a price to pay for a better day
They won't stop lying ? we won't stop trying
We have to live a life of peace
In this world
Time to stand and fight ? d?you believe its right?
In this world
Come on take the hand of your fellow man
In this world
This world (x10)
