We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we want to write
We gotta make ends meet,
before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make the noise and make it clear,
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
This time, we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better
Ooh, we're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son, oh
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make the noise and make it clear,
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Ooh, we're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make the noise and make it clear,
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
