Lyrics
:
What's the point of living If you can't live your life the way you want to anymore? There�s a young boy standing Staring at the world He can�t control his anger You can see it in his eyes He�s is the voice of youth boy You can hear him as he comes He's saying mister you don�t understand us Take a look at it through our eyes These are the kids they�re powerless So you tell them so These are the kids they�re powerful Don�t say you haven�t been told That when the power on the right side Fights the power on the left Yeah Yeah We have to stand together Forget the east and west For there�s another voice Crying in the ghetto Another mouth to feed Another heart beating in the ghetto Another soul to set free And we�ll go Marching On Hear our sound hear our voice We�re growing stronger And we�ll go Marching On We�re not alone in keeping on Marching On Take a walk round your city walls Before they all fall down Take a walk down any street You�re gonna feel the stares of us all Can you feel our anger? We're not about to stall Take a look at what you have created Think of all the people that made you When you said you cared for us all These are the people who�ll break you You better get prepared for the fall And we�ll go Marching On Hear our sound hear our voice We�re growing stronger And we�ll go Marching On We�re not alone in keeping on Marching On We�re the young who stand up We must never be silenced We�ve gotta speak up now For all our sakes And lift our voices higher We must sing our son Keep on marching marching We never must forget that That when the power on the right side Fights the power on the left Yeah Yeah We have to stand together Forget the east and west For there�s another voice Crying in the ghetto Another mouth to feed Another heart beating in the ghetto Another soul to set free And we�ll go Marching On Hear our sound hear our voice We�re growing stronger And we�ll go Marching On We�re not alone in keeping on We're going Marching On
