"Listen To The Message" lyrics

"Listen To The Message"

Please tell me, people
Why can't we just come together
And show each other love
You're my sister
I'm your brother

I don't know what to do
Or what I have to say
So I get down on my knees
And to my Lord
I start to pray
Asking God, "Give me strength"
And just a peace of mind
That I won't be caught up in distrust and hatred times

I write this song to plead to you
To leave the drugs alone
Violent gangs
Stop and think
Something has been going wrong

You gotta listen to the message
I'm asking
Listen to the message
I hope you listen to the message
Please won't you listen to the message
Listen to the message
Listen to the message
Listen

Please tell me, people
Why our kids aren't learning love?
Society has stole their thoughts
And turned them into thugs

Don't understand how it is
A Jew could hate a Black
The pains that we've both felt
Haven't happened that far back

Young people
Don't let it be
Just walk away from hate
Learn to love your fellow man
So this is never late

Learn to think for yourself
Be positive and strong
Negatives will bring you down
Won't you listen to this song?

You gotta listen to the message
I'm asking
Listen to the message
I hope you listen to the message
Please won't you listen to the message
Listen to the message
Listen to the message
Listen
