The Answer

Dream on
Dream on

Stop saying the game is sold and not be told
Try to help the child that's only 4 years old
Why, why would you sit back and relax
And watch the kids fall off the tracks?

How, how can you sit on the sideline and watch it go down
You, you need to make someone feel really proud
Rhythm is the key, can't you see?
Just don't do it for publicity

I was the boy in the little picture
Always asking questions
But never getting really good answers
So I screamed out loud and said
"Please give them the answers
Give 'em the answers, they need the answers"

Some people ask me, how is life for me
Growing up in a dark pretty city, it was scary
But life was good, see, in my neighborhood
In my neighborhood, in my neighborhood
In my neighborhood

It's [bad word] back to me now
See, when I was growing up
There was a lot of people raising me
I didn't know at the time
But I listened to everything I heard

Every man, every woman
Every teacher, every preacher, yes, I listened too
And you gotta have to do the same things
Oh, yes you do

March to the [bad word]  look all around you
Help somebody find their way
You gotta show 'em the way
Do it today, show 'em the way
Show them the way

Don't let them find out the hard way
Show them the way
Show them the way
Show them the way
