    STAY ALIVE
    (Lyrics and Music: Peter Cole)

    I woke up sound and strong this morning,
    a lot of questions on my mind.
    Is the human race awake?

    Do we care, do we worry
    about the way this world is going,
    about the million things at stake?

    Do we dream of another world
    somewhere nowhere in the skies?
    Do we wanna keep surviving?

    What about music?
    What about children?
    What about nature’s quest to stay alive?

    To stay alive, we must listen.
    To stay alive, we must share.
    For a while each one must say,
    this little world is mine.
    This little world is mine.

    In our every actions everyday
    no one wants to be the weaker one.
    wWhat’s the prize for the strong?

    Though we spill a river of blood,
    “I’m right” we say, “I’m right”.
    If history has taught us no lessons,
    is that we need to teach our children
    Will there ever be the strongest?

    What about music?
    What about children?
    What about aids, debts and poverty?

    To stay alive we must listen.
    To stay alive we must share.
    For a while each one must say,
    this little world is mine.
    This little world is mine.

    Does it really matter who you are?
    Does it really matter where you’re from?
    Does it really matter what you believe?
    D-I-A-L-O-G-U-E.

    What about music?
    What about children?
    What about nature’s quest to stay alive?
    What about music?
    What about children?
    What about aids, debts and poverty?

    To stay alive we must listen.
    To stay alive we must share.
    For a while each one must say,
    this little world is mine.
    This little world is mine.
