How many times will it take before we pull the breaks   Will we learn from all the past mistakes   That it's all about give or take   How many times will it take before we start to make   Can we make hope out of hate   Can we set the records straight   Now I want to get the message through to you   How can I make you understand   You've got to give a helping hand   What do we need, is it to achieve and believe   Is it that we've got to be true   Is it just a point of view      Some day there will be a tomorrow   Another day another vice another roll of the dice   Some way there will be a tomorrow tomorrow      Too many times there has been too many different signs   That too many people's minds   In the past have been blind   How much of our time can we spend wasting our time   Even all the biggest crimes   Are coming from inside our minds   It's up to you, will you do what can be done   Will you let the rat race be run   Do you think it can be won   So what's the cause, why do we need so many laws   We don't need another war   We can't win them any more      How many times will it take before we start to make   Can we make hope out of hate   Can we set the records straight   What can we do   What can we say   Is there a way   To get the message through to you
