Step Up




If we think it's heaven-sent
Don't that depend on what we believe?
If we got it under control
Is that something we need to see?

I told my fears to the ministers
They could only shake their heads
When I asked the governors to help me
They would smile and nod instead
Forget what Daddy or Teacher told you --
Your voice alone is as good as dead!
Voices need action in the times we live in
To sit on your knowledge is the worst kind of sin

So scream it from the rooftops
Beat your chest with pride
Show them all the beauty and the horror
Of the things you've been holding inside
Tell the stories to your children
Tell them to tell it to theirs
Hold your chin and head up high
And ignore the angry stares

If we think this is the end of the world
Don't that depend on our resolve?
If it's all out of control
Is it not up to us to solve?
