HOOK:
Take my hand, now let’s go
Everyone needs a hand along the road
Take one step, take it slow
I'll help you get to where you want to go

We live in a city, consumed by money and greed
People wasting money while there are children dying on the street
I close my eyes, to take in the pain and sorrow
I would try to help, but you’re already wearing the halo
My eyes are useless, 'cause nothing is quite as it seems
Like false prophets we're the shepherds leading blind sheep
It’s hard to dream for a better world when you’re living in a nightmare
When the poor get poorer, is life really that fair?
What happened to humanity? What happened to Ubuntu?
I know millions of better people to give all of that money to
Life is a charity, use your money wisely I beg of you
At the end of the day, saving a life is the right thing to do
My mouth might lie, but my heart won’t lie to you
I can't bare the pain I see you going through
I look at the sky and I know what I have to do
Take my hand and I'll take you where you want to go

HOOK

They say life is precious, but what's precious about it?
If you see poor kids on the street you do nothing about it
Where is the love? Is this the future you envisioned?
Don't let their past leave their future imprisoned
The bible says help those who really need it
You may not hear it but it's their inner voice screaming
Internally bleeding, they're barely breathing
Life is a court case and here they are pleading
You are the judge, this is my testimony
If I don't get through to you I owe them an apology
Take off my hat and go into pottery
What’s the use of sending messages if no one will listen to them?
In my heart, I just had to try
With your help, you can even save a life
You can't help but smile when you do something right
Take my hand and I'll wipe the tears from your eyes

HOOK

It's hard to understand what they are going through
It's hard to look them in the eye knowing what they are going through
I know it's hard but it's time to make a stand
We can't let our people face life alone
We can't let our own brothers stand alone
In the face of adversity we need together
So take my hand and let's go through life together

HOOK
