Beats of the World

Walking down the street Hearing all the beats Going all around Construction sites Alarm systems going off Honking horns Mothers yelling at there kids Drivers screaming at other drivers Jackhammers pounding the ground Water fountains pouring down water Coins falling out of hands People talking on cell phones Guitars from street performers Getting caught up into the sound Just wanting to scream out Letting the world know This is the beat This is the real music Others join Wanting to help Walking down the middle Of the street Cars pulling over People getting out of cars Starting a group That stands strong Stomping there feet At the ground Screaming out These are the beats of the world Others join Wanting to have fun Police come out To stop us From having the world go mad By the beats of music We go on Starting a riot Dancing down the street And singing our hearts out No one can stop us Kids join in Hitting trash cans With there hands Police form a wall We still go strong Breaking it down They know They cannot win When we dance to the beat Of the world
