Michael Jackson "We've Had Enough" letra

We've Had Enough

[Verse 1]Love was taken from a young lifeAnd no one told her whyHer direction has a dim lightFrom one more violent crime

[Verse 2]She innocently questioned whyWhy her father had to dieShe asked the men in blueHow is it that you get to chooseWho will live and who will dieDid God say that you could decide?You saw he did not runAnd that my daddy had no gun

[Verse 3]In the middle of a villageWay in a distant landLies a poor boy with his broken toyToo young to understand

[Verse 4]He is awaken, ground is shakingHis father grabs his handScreaming, crying, his wife is dyingNow he is left to explain

[Verse 5]He innocently questioned whyWhy his mother had to dieWhat did these soldiers come here for?If they are for peace, why is there war?

[Verse 6]Did God say that they could decideWho will live and who will die?All my mama ever didWas try to take care of her kids

[Verse 7]We are innocently standing byWatching people lose their livesIt seems as if we have no voiceIt is time for us to make a choice

[Verse 8]Only God could decideWho will live and who will dieThere is nothing that cannot be doneIf we raise our voice as one

[Chorus] [x3]They have got to hear it from meThey have got to hear it from youThey have got to hear it from usWe cannot take itWe 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 itWe have already had enough

It is going down babyJust let God decide

It is going on babyJust let God decide

Deep in my soul baby

We have already had enough

[Chorus]
