Strugglin'

Sometimes you've got to wonder

What is is we're strugglin' for

They tell me that it's peace

While using weapons made for war

And I know that something's wrong

Yes, I know it isn't right

So I'll keep on moving forward

Yeah, I won't give up this fight

They ask me what I'm doing

Why I see the world this way

They size it up with dollar signs

And then they make you pay

But really, can't you see it?

In the choices that we make

Claiming it as mine and yours

Well, that's our first mistake

Yeah, I know I'm victim of it

And perpetrator too

Still I carry hope within me

And work towards somethin' new

'Cuz there's life right here before us

In faces black and white

So keep on moving forward

Yeah, you can't give up this fight
