We Believe

[Verse 1] I believe there is no evil out there we did not have a hand in You believe it is a time for peace and a time for understanding Some of us believe that we are chosen And if God is on our side we will win the game And some of us believe that there is a heaven When the trumpets sound and the judges call your name But let us get it straight I believe there is just once chance in this world to hear our brothers You believe there is a better way to listen to each other We do not get what the other guy is saying We hear the words but we do not understand So around the world the same old anger raging And we all cry for shame and the same old tragedy goes down [Chorus] We believe there is a better way to fight There is a way to make our children safe at night We believe there is a war we could be winning But the only way to win it is to give what we need to receive [Verse 2] I believe we need a hero to step boldly from the shadows You believe there must be someone on the scene that fits the bill A man or a woman who knows how to say I am sorry With courage in his heart to match his creed A leader who can build a brand new morning And match the tide of changes Match the intent with the deed [Chorus] We believe there is a deed of obligation To bring reconciliation To make peace with every nation - in our time We believe there is not a minute we should be wasting When the darkness falls it is too late to fix the crime It is peace that we need [Verse 3] Every father every mother knows the meaning Human treasure that our leaders do forget And the bullets fly in the face of common reason And the pain we give is the legacy in the end we get [Chorus] We believe there is a song that is worth the singing It is a song of truth we are bringing There is a way to share the Earth with everyone We believe every creature has a being Has a right to respect and feeling To live and breathe and flourish in the sun That's what we believe
