There Is

Theres fire burning in our hearts
And we join to take a stand
Theres a hatred deep ignited
As our country joins hands

Theres a boyfriend who is dying
Another member of a gang
Whose life he thought meant nothing but crying
His family's shame

Theres a girlfriend left alone tonight
Shes a girl home all alone
Shes another victim of a fight
From another broken home

Theres a mother crying out there
As her baby's put into the grave
Theres raindrops in her hair
She thinks about the life she couldn't save

Theres a husband who is cheating
While his wife is away
Hes full of lying and deceiving
When he says he loves her every day

Theres a brother who is crying
As his sister walks down the aisle
Shes handed of to her fiance who is always lying
Such a beautiful bride

Theres an aunt who is drinking
As shes hurting more than see can see
No one understands why she is thinking
No one hears her plea

Theres an uncle who is mourning
As his poor Ole wife dies
Torn clothes they're both adorning
Another lost life

Theres a cousin who is fighting
His family is protesting again
In the sky, bombs are lighting
Reminders of the constant battle we are in

Theres a son who is running
Far away from here
Tired of cruel words and shunning
Caught up in his fear

Theres a daughter who's confused
As she watches her father drive away
She wonders why shes so abused
As shes beaten again and again day after day

Theres a grandmother who is sickening
Her family doesn't care
She sits at home, weakening
Wondering how life can be so unfair

Theres a family who is torn
As everyone falls apart
All those years of hate and scorn
Wishing their lives could restart

Theres a daughter who's so confused
As she watches her father drive away
She wonders why shes so abused
As shes beaten again and again day after day

You'd better take what you got
Its what you've been given
Weather you like it our not
Its the life you are living
