Possibilities

So caught up in our own day-to-day We see lives in need and look the other way I'm not a pessimist but I think it's safe to say This would be different if it was your family We can't fathom not having a place to rest our heads Can you imagine the pain of a newborn child that won't be fed? It's so easy getting comfortable We ignore the empty hands in need thinking someone else will see them Can you see the possibilities? We have the ability to change the world If we wanna see a change we have to be it Stand up and believe that the responsibility's ours Day after day they continue to die so we think our prayers go unheard But poverty ends where compassion begins We can no longer deny it's up to us It's up to us We are the chosen ones Called to be bold There is no time to hesitate Today is the day we can break the mold Can you see the possibilities? We have the ability to change the world If we wanna see a change we have to be it Stand up and believe that the responsibility's ours Their starving eyes cry out for anyone to listen Reaching out for anyone to care Would we ignore them now If they were our own children? Or make a promise to always be there? Remove the veil from your eyes We could move mountains if we only tried Remove the veil from your eyes We hold the power in our hands to save their lives Come on Can you see the possibilities? We have the ability to change the world If we wanna see a change we have to be it Stand up and believe that the responsibility's ours
