Call To Action

(专辑： Stuck In The House: The Pandemic Project - 2020)

Too many have died
Too much hate
There's still hope for tomorrow
But something has to change now

Not tomorrow but today
Something must be done
What we see cannot continue
Our ancestors paved the way
And now it's up to us
We've been given trust to make a change

What kind of world will we lead to our children
If we do nothing (if we do nothing)
All the blood of those we lost will be on our hands
We must take a stand now

I'm talking to you, and you, and you
And the ones beside you
We can all do something
(We can all do something)
I'm talking to you, and you, and you
And the ones around you
It's time for you to take your place
In this race

It's time to run, it's time to fly
It's time to live with those who died
It's time to pray and to believe
That we can stand in unity, yeah
Things have got to change, yeah
We can't just let this happen
There's no more time to waste, no

Say it, this is our time it's a call to action
This is our time it's a call to action
This is our time it's a call to action
This is our time it's a call to action
It's a call to action, yeah

Someone tell me where would we be
If it had not been for
Those who paved the way so we could be free
Freedom's still so far away
When bloods still shed and those
Who are responsible
Go free instead

What kind of world will we leave to our children
If we do nothing (if we do nothing)?
All the blood of those we lost will be on our hands
We must take a stand now

I'm talking to you, and you, and you
And the ones beside you
We can all do something
(We can all do something)
I'm talking to you, and you, and you
And the ones around you
It's time for you to take your place
In this race

It's time to run, it's time to fly
It's time to live with those that died
It's time to pray and to believe
That we can stand in unity

Say it, this is our time it's a call to action
This is our time it's a call to action
This is our time it's a call to action
This is our time it's a call to action
It's a call to action, yeah
Here we go, here we go

It's time for us to stand up, stand up
It's time for us to stand up, stand up
Use your voice and stand up, stand up
Use your voice and stand up, stand up, yeah
Use your mind and stand up, stand up (yes, sir)
Use your time and stand up, stand up (yes, sir)
Every race, stand up, stand up
Every religion, stand up, stand up
Every creed of God, stand up, stand up
Across borderline, stand up, stand up
It's time for us to stand up, stand up
It's time for us to stand up

It's a call to action
