If you stayed home or went to war.
I dont care if when you were young,
You did silly things for a bit of fun.
And i don/'/t care what side you follow,
Right, left, the middle serve the same sparrow.

But i do care if youre empathy is low.
Or if you feel you are all hallowed.
And i do care if you spread hate,
Or if you feel it’s right to discriminate.
You know, i do care if during your day,
You feel the need to create a fray.

So, i will speak out against hate,
I promise that it’s never too late.
And i will stand if i see wrong.
We need a people who are morally strong.
And so i hope in the future away,
Our world will settle and hatred will fade.

I dont care if youre rich or poor,
If you stayed home or went to war.
I dont care if when you were young,
You did silly things for a bit of fun.
And i don/'/t care what side you follow,
Right, left, the middle serve the same sparrow.

But i do care if youre empathy is low.
Or if you feel you are all hallowed.
And i do care if you spread hate,
Or if you feel it’s right to discriminate.
You know, i do care if during your day,
You feel the need to create a fray.

So, i will speak out against hate,
I promise that it’s never too late.
And i will stand if i see wrong.
We need a people who are morally strong.
And so i hope in the future away,
Our world will settle and hatred will fade.
