Intro

Love was taken from a young life
And no one told her why
Her direction has a dimlight
From one more violent crime
She innocently questioned why,
Why her father had to die
She asked the men in blue
How is it that you get to choose,
Who will live and who will die
Did God say that you could decide?
You saw he didn't run
And that my daddy had no gun.
In the middle of a village.
Way in a distant land
Lies a poor boy with his broken toy
Too young to understand.
He's awaken, ground is shakin
His father grabs his hand
Screaming, crying, his wife's dying
Now he's left to explain.
He innocently questioned why
Why his mother had to die
What did these soldiers come here for?
If they're for peace, why is there war?
Did God say that they could decide
Who will live and who will die?
All my mama ever did
Was try to take care of her kids.
We're innocently standing by
Watching people lose their lives
It seems as if we have no voice
It's time for us to make a choice
Only God could decide
Who will live and who will die
There's nothing that can't be done
If we raise our voice as one.
They've gotta hear it from me
They've gotta hear it from you
They've gotta hear it from us
We can't take it. We've already had enough.
They've gotta hear it from me
They've gotta hear it from you
They've gotta hear it from us
We can't take it. We've already had enough.
They've gotta hear it from me
They've gotta hear it from you
They've gotta hear it from you, baby
We can't take it. We've already had enough.
Deep in your soul and let God decide
(Deep in my soul baby,)
It's up to me and i'm still alive
(Deep in my soul)
They've gotta hear it from us
We can't take it. We've already had enough.
It's going down baby.
Just let God decide.
It's going on baby.
Just let God decide.
Deep in my soul baby,
We've already had enough.
They've gotta hear it from me
They've gotta hear it from you
They've gotta hear it from us
We can't, we can't. We've already had enough.
We've all ready had enough.
They gotta take it from me,
ask my brother, its too much for me.
Ask my brother baby.
Ask my mother, We've already had enough.
