It's Up To You Lived in a world of difference, Lived in a world of hurt. I've traveled down this path. It leads to the ends of the earth. Your future is in a forced smile, Of a young and sickened child. They say it's your choice. Hear the fear in their voice. If you don't hear it; then who. Can't you see it's up to you? Searched for a world of love. Lived in a world of pain. Seen many situations, The results are always the same. Sometimes you ask me why, The people and children die. They say it's your choice. All the screaming becomes one voice. If not you, Tell us who. Can't you see it's up to you? Lived in a world of hope. So many lost souls. Been in so many places. Now where do I need to go? Still our children cry. Your future is in their eyes. They say make your choice. Hear the fear tainted in their voice. If you don't then who, Can't you see it's up to you. D.
