歌词
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
A generation's trying
Oh, how we're dying
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
To keep our lives going
Life is here and then it's gone
And what seems right can be oh-so wrong
Let's protect, and not molest... a young girl
And help them live to see... this world
Clearly, as it is
And pray for the mother with kids
Who's lost control, but not her soul
Many kids will die before they're 20 years old
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
A generation's trying
Oh, how we're dying
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
A better day is coming
To keep our lives going
Popswhere in the world have you gone
I see Momma by the telephone
Waiting but you don't call
Tears on her face and I see them fall
It hurts but will go on
You're just another brother who's left his home
And family yeah we cry,
Momma says she love you and I don't even know why
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
A generation's trying
Oh, how we're dying
help
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
A better day is coming
To keep our lives going
Money and death, the lie, the truth
A dime bag of crack, the end of you
Black and white, a constant fight
Years and years, and day and night
There was a right, I've got to stand
To make a better way for a young black man
In a land where the people smile
Been holding me back for such a long while
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
A generation's trying
Oh, how we're dying
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
A better day is coming
To keep our lives going
Help them, will you let them be?
Children don't be fooled
And learn about the way that man was ruled
This country where we live
And read about the sixties and what they did
So that we won't forget
And love one another and give respect
When I see a man who's old
A woman who's grey, it touches my soul
Because I know they paved the way
So we could be here and live this way
There was a time not long ago
When in the-front-of-the-bus into the back I had to go
It appears that things have changed
Maybe it's in the method but it's still the same game
Will you let them be?
Will you help the children live to see...
A generation's trying
