Rise up and scream

About the way that you've been used

Don't let the children of the future be abused

Well you've watched yourself

And you know where you went wrong

If you can believe

Then you know you can be strong

It's tough to take

To learn from a mistake

So tough to take

It's tough to take.

You look around

And you're amazed at what you see

Children of the streets buying and selling

And giving it away for free

Look down your nose

And cry of inhumanity

Then walk away

And believe you can be free

It's tough to take

To learn from a mistake

So tough to take

It's tough to take.

Just close your eyes

And leave tomorrow for the next generation

Surround yourself in some sorrow of the past

Don't let them in

If you do the pain might last

You are the cause

And the blindness brings me pain

It's tough to take

To learn from a mistake

So tough to take

It's tough to take.
