about

Another older song. This one was around 1989 as well. I was definitely writing about the troubled world, but we can prevail. This song fits in today just as well as it did back then.

lyrics

I can't take no more of this living
People always telling me what to say
It's getting harder to deal with the pressure
It's getting harder every day

The wars are breaking out in different countries
And the crimes out in the streets
Makes you want to stay in and hide out
But is that really how the system can be beat
Let's put an end to this summer heat

Ah, we can prevail
Ah, we can prevail

Not everyone knows what they are saying
Rambling on into a fight
Nothing can really be solved be anger
Even if you know that you are right
Why must we always have to fight

Ah, we can prevail
Ah, we can prevail
Ah, we can prevail
Ah, we can prevail
