Help 'em
Help our children
Will you let them be (Help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (Help the children)
A generation is trying (bombs and crack)
Oh how we're dying (dance, help them)
Will you let them be (help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (help the children)
A better day is coming (we need love)
To keep our lives going
Life is here and then it's gone
And what seems right can be oh so wrong
Let's protest and not molest
Our young girls
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 (help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (help the children)
A generation is trying (bombs and crack)
Oh how we're dying (dance, help them)
Will you let them be (help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (help the children)
A better day is coming (we need love)
To keep our lives going
Papas, (papas) where have you gone
I see mama (mama) by the telephone
Waiting, (waiting) but you don't call
Tears on the fears and I see them fall
It hurts, but we'll go on
You're just another brother who's left his home
And family yeah we cry
Mama said she loved you
And I don't even know why (why, why, why, why)
Will you let them be (help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (help the children)
A generation is trying (bombs and crack)
Oh how we're dying (dance, help them)
Will you let them be (help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (help them)
A better day is coming (help the children) (we need love)
To keep our lives going
Money and death
The line the truth
A dime bag of crack
The end of you
Black and white
A constant fight
Years and years
And day and night
Or was it right
I've got to stand
To make a better way
For a young black man
And a land
Where the people smile
You've been holding me back
For such a long while (while, while, while)
Will you let them be (help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (help them)
A generation is trying (help the children) (bombs and crack)
Oh how we're dying (help them)
Will you let them be (help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (help them)
A better day is coming (help the children) (we need love)
To keep our lives going (help them)
Will you let them be
Children (children)
Don't be fooled
And learn about the way
The men once ruled this country
Where we live
And read about the 60s
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 great
Touches my soul
'Cause I know
They paved the way
So we can be here
And live this way
There was a time
Not long ago
When in front of the bus to the back I had to go
It appears
That things have changed
Maybe it's a method but it's still the same game (game game game)
Will you let them be (help the children)
Will you help our children live to see (help them)
Our generation is trying (bombs and crack)
Oh how we're dying (help them)
Will you let them be
