With music by our side
To break the color lines Let's work together To improve our way of life Join voices in protest To social injustice A generation full of courage Come forth with me Chorus: People of the world today Are we looking for a better way of life We are a part of the rhythm nation People of the world unite Strength in numbers we can get it right One time We are a part of the rhythm nation This is the test No struggle no progress Lend a hand to help Your brother do his best Things are getting worse We have to make them better It's time to give a damn Let's work together come on Repeat Chorus |

Five A.M. rise and shine
To feed the baby before he starts to cry No rest, no time to play 15, the mother is a runaway No time for dreams or goals Pressure is so strong Her body she has sold so her child can eat What is happening to this world we live in In our home and other lands Drugs and crime spreadin' on the streets People can't find enough to eat Now our kids can't go out and play That's the state of the world today Lil' Johnny all alone His only friend, the doll he carries with him Goes to school each and every day To be teased because he has no place to stay This young and homeless boy feels his life is worthless Instead of suicide he cries himself to sleep And it's happenin' to this world we live in There's got to be a better way Drugs and crime spreadin' on the streets People can't find enough to eat Now our kids can't go out and play That's the state of the world today Can't give up hope now Let's weather the storm together |

Insight to what's going on
Information keeps us strong What you don't know can hurt you bad Take it from me you'll be walkin' around sad Cryin' for a better day Until you educate for a better way So if you wanna be in control Ya gotta get yourself in the know Chorus: Get the knowledge That you really want The knowledge Do you really want It's the knowledge What you really want The knowledge That you really want Spreading vise don't believe the hype You don't find the knowledge in a pipe Too many lives go up in smoke It's nice to laugh but don't be the joke To get over get better Try to be the possessor Of the one thing we all need in life To succeed take my advice Repeat Chorus Prejudice No! Ignorance No! Bigotry No! Illiteracy No! Listen it's up to everyone If we're gonna change the way the world is run The way to start is to rid the children of Prejudice & ignorance We've gotta teach our kids to read & write That's the only way to win this fight for life Education is the goal so If you wanna be in the know get the knowledge It's the one thing we all need in life Repeat Chorus |

Shot like an arrow through my heart That's the pain I feel I feel whenever we're apart Not to say that I'm in love with you But who's to say that I'm not I just know that it feels wrong, When I'm away too long It makes my body hot So let me tell ya baby CHORUS: I'll tell your mama I'll tell your friends I'll tell anyone whose heart can comprehend Send it in a letter baby Tell you on the phone I'm not the kinda girl Who likes to be alone I miss ya much (boy-oh-I miss you much) I really miss you much (M-I-S-S you much) I miss ya much (boy-oh-I miss you much) Baby I really miss you much (M-I-S-S you much) I'm rushing home Just as soon as I can I'm rushing home to see Your smiling face And feel your warm embrace It makes f-feel so g-g-g good So I'll tell you baby CHORUS BRIDGE: I miss you much I really really miss you much I miss you much I'm not ashamed to tell the world I miss you CHORUS |

Love Will Never Do (Without You)
Our friends think we're opposites Falling in and out of love They all said we'd never last Still we manage to stay together There's no easy explanation for it But whenever there's a problem We always work it out somehow Work it out somehow CHORUS: They said it wouldn't last We had to prove them wrong Cause I've learned in the past That love will never do without you Other guys have tried before To replace you as my lover Never did I have a doubt Boy it's you I can't do without I feel better when I have you near me Cause no other love around Has quite the same ooh ooh (ha ha ha!) Like you do do do do babe CHORUS Alright Seeing that your love's true Never I'll doubt you My heart belongs to you That's alright with me Worlds could end around me So in love that I can't see You and me were meant to be That's alright with me CHORUS: Friends come and friends may go My friend, you're real I know True self you have shown You're alright with me Through thick and thick to thin I'll love you till the end You know it's true my friend You're alright with me Catch a fallin' star that shines Make a wish clap 3 times Dreams come true it's in the mind That's alright with me Your wish is my command Never thought I'd fall in love again Again with my best friend That's alright with me CHORUS Always and everlasting This love is just not passing We're happy as can be Alright with me CHORUS |

Black Cat
All the lonely nights I spend alone Never around to love me You're always gone Cause you're hangin out Breakin' the rules Oh the man has come Looking for you You're a rebel now Don't give a damn Always carrying on With the gang I'm trying to tell you boy It's a mistake You won't realize Til it's too late Don't understand Why you insist On ways of living such a dangerous life Time after time you stay away And I just know that you're telling me lies CHORUS: Black cat Nine lives Short days Long nights Livin on the edge Not afraid to die Heart beat Real strong But not For long Better watch your step Or you're gonna die You're so together boy But just at a glance You'll do anything If given a chance Scheming, plannin lies To get what you need So full of promises That you never keep Don't you tell yourself That it's okay Sick and tired of All of your games And you want me to stay Better change Makes no sense to me Your crazy ways CHORUS |

Feeling so alone and deserted
With people standing all around you Should I trust someone Should I stay off to myself Alone with no one to talk to It's such a helpless feeling Chorus: So anytime you feel the need Call me when you're lonely Cause everybody needs a friend To be there when they're lonely So don't isolate yourself Every time that I come around A person all alone Is an unhappy one We need somebody near to love us Someone who cares Living life all by yourselves Impossible to do and I'll be there for you Anytime you feel the need Call me when you're lonely Cause everybody needs a friend And I'll be yours if you're lonely (And if you're all alone) If you're all alone And a friend you need Like a river flows You hurt, I'll bleed If you can trust in me We can find a way Take away the pain Time heals all things Even a lonely state of mind 'cause happiness is oh so hard to find If you're lonely I will be there Repeat Chorus |
