[00:02.00]
[00:07.43]It's a long road oh
[00:10.39]
[00:12.85]Everyday I wake up and turn my phone on
[00:15.46]I read the news of the day just as it's coming down
[00:18.55]I do my best not to let it get me down
[00:21.47]I try to keep my head up but this is Babylon
[00:24.51]This world's in crisis we try to fight it this changing climate
[00:27.54]The scientists and politicians divided by it
[00:30.55]So many ways we could solve it but they would never sign it
[00:33.56]This mountains tumbling down but still we try to climb it
[00:36.63]It's in the Torah Quran and in the bible
[00:39.51]Love is the message for some how we turn to rivals
[00:42.53]It's come to people always picking up their rifles
[00:45.50]Another school getting shot up homicidal
[00:48.54]Some people tryna look fly some people tryna get high
[00:51.55]Some people losing their mind some people tryna get by
[00:54.65]And when you look in my eyes you see the sign of the times
[00:57.82]We all looking for the same thing
[00:59.59]But what if this song's number one
[01:02.56]Would it mean that love had won
[01:05.47]Would it mean that the world was saved
[01:07.95]
[01:08.57]And no guns are being drawn today
[01:10.85]
[01:11.45]What if everybody had a job
[01:13.83]
[01:14.45]And nobody had to break a law
[01:16.96]
[01:17.57]What if everyone could say
[01:20.97]
[01:22.29]That it's good to be alive today
[01:24.63]
[01:25.45]Oh oh oh oh
[01:28.33]Is it good to be alive today
[01:30.53]
[01:31.36]Oh oh oh

[01:40.37]Is it good to be alive today
[01:42.55]
[01:43.31]Oh oh oh
[01:45.76]
[01:46.42]No matter what nobody say
[01:48.13]People used to feel safer when they would hear a siren
[01:51.52]Like help is on its way but now they only think of violence
[01:54.69]Another youth in the streets and police is in a conflict
[01:57.93]And now they hear the guns click yo
[02:00.64]Ebola crisis and ISIS is taking heads off
[02:03.52]A drone is bombing a village and now the kids all
[02:06.51]Signing up to be soldiers but they all willing now
[02:09.47]To do the killing now now are you willing now
[02:12.53]Some politicians out there making up some problems
[02:15.52]And tryna tell the people that they can solve them
[02:18.42]With TV shows and soundbites and quotes
[02:21.25]But everybody knows that it's all about the cash flow
[02:24.59]They telling you and me they're making progress
[02:27.32]But tell it to the millions of jobless
[02:30.52]It's like a players club with billions of dollars
[02:33.46]To get the votes you got to make it rain in congress
[02:36.64]Some people tryna look fly some people tryna get high
[02:39.55]Some people losing their mind some people tryna get by
[02:42.54]And when you look in my eyes you see the sign of the times
[02:45.69]We all looking for the same thing
[02:47.57]But what if this song's number one
[02:49.99]
[02:50.50]Would it mean that love had won
[02:53.49]Would it mean that the world was saved
[02:56.56]And no guns are being drawn today
[02:59.44]What if everybody had a job
[03:01.97]
[03:02.58]And nobody had to break a law
[03:04.95]
[03:05.53]What if everyone could say
[03:08.09]
[03:10.20]That it's good to be alive today
[03:12.58]
[03:13.58]Oh oh oh oh
[03:16.34]Is it good to be alive today
[03:18.53]
