We've Had Enough lyrics

[Verse 1]

Love was taken from a young life

And no one told her why

Her direction has a dim light

From one more violent crime

[Verse 2]

She innocently questioned why

Why her father had to die

She asked the men in blue

How is it that you get to choose

Who will live and who will die

Did God say that you could decide?

You saw he did not run

And that my daddy had no gun

[Verse 3]

In the middle of a village

Way in a distant land

Lies a poor boy with his broken toy

Too young to understand

[Verse 4]

He is awaken, ground is shaking

His father grabs his hand

Screaming, crying, his wife is dying

Now he is left to explain

[Verse 5]

He innocently questioned why

Why his mother had to die

What did these soldiers come here for?

If they are for peace, why is there war?

[Verse 6]

Did God say that they could decide

Who will live and who will die?

All my mama ever did

Was try to take care of her kids

[Verse 7]

We are innocently standing by

Watching people lose their lives

It seems as if we have no voice

It is time for us to make a choice

[Verse 8]

Only God could decide

Who will live and who will die

There is nothing that cannot be done

If we raise our voice as one

[Chorus] [x3]

They have got to hear it from me

They have got to hear it from you

They have got to hear it from us

We cannot take it

We have already had enough

Deep in my soul baby

Deep in your soul and let God decide

Deep in my soul

It is up to me and I am still alive

They have got to hear it from us

We cannot take it

We have already had enough

It is going down baby

Just let God decide

It is going on baby

Just let God decide

Deep in my soul baby

We have already had enough

[Chorus]
