I'll Take No More Lyrics

Children of the United States of America
Please be careful
What were once peaceful neighbourhoods
Have been transformed into streets of danger
Let us not be frightened
But let stand us tall
And see the problem face to face
Show the world that we're strong
Loud and clear in a language that everyone understands

But now the time has come
And we must see it through
I'm telling you I won't give in

No going back, no open door
I'll take no more
The moment that I feared the most
Was when I'd sit all alone
A million lives held in my hands
And a heart the weight of stone

So many times I've tried to warn
That this day would surely come
When dreams would wither on the vine
As clouds eclipsed the sun
They're listening, they want to know
You may give in they hate you so
So don't look down and you be strong
Together we'll survive

But now the time has come
And we must see it through

I'm telling you I won't give in
No going back, no open door
I'm telling you ? I'll take no more
