we need some hope for the hopeless
help for the helpless
rest for the weary
and a home for the homeless
what we need is some Love for the people
people come together
it's time to take this matter
with an open heart and an open mind
sages through the ages said "seek and you shall find"
and I'm after the cure, seeking a solution
peeking through the clouds of this spiritual pollution
I see there is light, I see there is Love
endless guidance from up above
for us to turn to heart, return to the heart
where the fire burns and the changes start
(chorus)
we need some hope for the hopeless
help for the helpless
rest for the weary
and a home for the homeless
what we need is some Love for the people
people come together
it's time to make this better
we be cutting trees, let the mountains burn
after so many mistakes we got so much to learn
we let them steal from the land and poison our waters
what will we tell to our sons and daughters?
about these fools in power it is hard to believe
that a bunch of greedy planet-fuckers were elected to lead
but it is not too late to take back the power
sisters, brothers go and show them
what it means to care for each other
(chorus)
we need some hope to the hopeless
help for the helpless
rest for the weary
and a home for the homeless
what we need is some love for the people
people come together
there's never been a better time
to question this direction
that we've been traveling on
now pay attention
the factions are new but the struggle's the same
the option are few but the fire remains
so hear me now
I don't wanna wake up to find out it's just too late
I don't wanna wait if I can do something today
set your intentions to actions and pray
carry each other to a better day
by giving hope to the hopeless
help to the help-less-messing around
we need a home for the homeless now
what we need is some love for the people
people come together there's never been a better time
never been a better time
now there has never been a better time for coming together
there has never been a better time to speak up
there has never been a better time for coming together
there has never been a better time to stand up
there has never been a better time for coming together
there has never been a better time to wake up
there has never been a better time for coming together
there has never been a better time to love
