The news attack me through the tv screen
I can’t bear to watch the suffering
These aren’t flowers raining on my friends
These are our children getting lost at sea
I had never seen an angel sleeping in the sand
I had never felt the urge to scream
Stop this, I can hardly breathe
Shout it out
Let’s make our voices sound like thunder
Shout it out
Let’s raise the Giant that sleeps within us
Shout it out
Let’s fight together for a better tomorrow
Yes we can, Yes we can
Lost generations are haunting me
How could we ever let this happen
These are angels getting lost at sea
Carrying within them ruins as memories
I can feel their pain crawling under my skin
I can feel their sorrow streaming down my face
Stop this, I can hardly breathe
Shout it out
Let’s make our voices sound like thunder
Shout it out
Let’s raise the Giant that sleeps within us
Shout it out
Let’s fight together for a better tomorrow
Yes we can, Yes we can
Lord give me courage to stand
Even if I stand alone
Lord give me strength to fight for our rights
And if this is the price
Let the bullets rain on me
Let my scream rise
Shout it out
Let’s make our voices sound like thunder
Shout it out
Let’s raise the Giant that sleeps within us
Shout it out
Let’s fight together for a better tomorrow
Yes we can, Yes we can
