Let's Make a Better Place

Can someone tell me what's happening to us? 
Can you tell me whats happening to this world we're living on? 
Poison's filling the air 
now I can't breathe. 
Our children can't go to school 
without being the next gunned victim 

What's happening to us? 
Can someone tell me, 
I need to know. 

What are we waiting for? 
Can we put this to an end 
before it happens again? 
What are we waiting for? 

Aren't you tired of hearing about it? (I am) 
Are we just going to let it keep happening? 

If you just stop and look behind you 
Look what you have done to me? 
Let's wipe the tears away. 

If we turn this world around, 
It would be a better place. 
It's us against the world 
we are the human race 
let's make this a better place. 

What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 

Let's make this a better place. 

What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 

We are the human race. 

What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 
What are we waiting for? 

Let's make this a better place.
