_______________________________________________
(Verse 1)
No one sits with him he doesn't fit in
But we feel like we do when we make fun of him
Cause you want to belong, do you go along?
Cause his pain is the price paid for you to belong
It's not like we hate him or want him to die
But maybe he goes home and thinks suicide
Or he comes back to school with a gun at his side
Any kindness from you might've saved his life
(Chorus)
Heroes are made when you make a choice
You could be a hero, heroes do what's right
You could be a hero, you might save a life
You could be a hero, you could join the fight
For what's right, for what's right, for what's right…..
(Verse 2)
No one talks to her, she feels so alone
She's in too much pain to survive on her own
The hurt she can't handle overflows to a knife
She writes on her arm, wants to give up her life
Each day she goes on is a day that she's brave,
Fighting the lie that giving up is the way,
Each moment of courage, her own life she saves
When she throws the pills out, a hero is made
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
No one talks to him about how he lives
He thinks that the choices he makes are just his
Doesn't know he's a leader with the way he behaves
And others will follow the choices he's made
He lives on the edge, he's old enough to decide
His brother who wants to be him is just nine
He can do what he wants because it's his right
The choices he makes change a nine year old's life
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Little Mikey D was the one in class
Who everyday got brutally harassed
This went on for years until he decided
That never again would he shed another tear
So he walked through the door
Grabbed the 44 out of his fathers dresser drawer
Said 'I can't take life no more'
And like that
Life can be lost
But this ain't even about that
All of us just sat back and watched it happen
Thinkin it's not our responsibility to solve a problem
When 'It isn't about me'
This is our problem
This is just one of the daily scenarios to which we choose to close our eyes instead of doin the right thing
If we make a choice to be the voice for those who won't speak up for themselves
How many lives will be saved
Changed
And rearranged?
Now it's our time to pick a side
So don't just keep walkin by
Not wantin to intervene
Cause you just want to exist and never be seen
So lets wake up change the world
Our time is now.....
