I:
Take a look at the television screen
Imagine some have lived the things you've seen
Let's talk about blacks enslaved by whites
Fighting in South Africa for human rights
Bridge:
Please feel them near they're living
Don't let them there growing in a cage
Please send them hope and freedom
And try to assure it's the turn of the page
II:
Some whites first tried to separate
Light from dark like hope from hate
Didn't they know it was time to hear blacks scream
To stop their pain and realize their dream
Bridge:
Please feel them near they're living ...
Chorus:
So see it's real
Be sure it's a fight
Please let them feel
That in a night
The lights are dim
Some blacks will start to win
III:
Please let me try to read your mind
As I can't stand to go on blind
Have you ever thought about dust
Be sure that will remain if you can't trust
Bridge:
Please feel them near they're living ...
Chorus:
So see it's real ...
III:
It's time to open prison halls
To let blacks in South Africa break their walls
Show them all where they belong
And understand to make them strong
