Too many people got nothin' to eat
While the rich man a feast on his kill

Too many people got blood on their hands
Thinkin' there's nothin' else they can do
And you go 'bout your day thinkin' it's okay
Won't hurt you now if you just look away

Imagine one day it's you, what would you do?
Imagine one day it's you

You give your all

Yeah, you give your hand
Your compassion it flow from the source
You build you're world here on equality
And together you find what your worth
Come on!
Stand up for freedom, the people will lead
Stand up for justice, oh let it be me

[Chorus]
Imagine one day it's you, what would you do?
Imagine one day it's you, it's your turn now
Imagine one day it's you, what you gonna do?
Imagine one day it's you

[Bridge]
You think you're different
Nothin' could happen to you
But tables always turn

So you'll need a helpin' hand
To build on rock rather than a foundation of sand

[Chorus]
How many lives will it take to realize
That we're killin' ourselves all the while
How many people must die here in vain
In the name of the price that we pay

Come on!
Stand up for freedom, the people will lead
Stand up for justice, oh let it be me
