Care
by: Kid RockDay by day my life gets colder
My eyes grows thin as I get older
Peace in pieces, bloody and bruised
I feel so helpless and confused
'Cause I hear screaming on the left
Yelling on the right
I'm sitting in the middle
Trying to live my life
'Cause I can't stop the war
Shelter homeless, feed the poor
I can't walk on water
I can't save your sons and daughters
Well, I can't change the world
And make things fair
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
The least that I can do is care
Ooh, yeah, ooh
I pray and pray for life's salvation
Faith is tried and true in tribulation
Love is lost and lonely, check the news
And with these open arms I'll wait for you
'Cause I hear screaming on the left
Yelling on the right
I'm sitting in the middle
Trying to live my life
'Cause I can't stop the war
Shelter homeless, feed the poor
I can't walk on water
I can't save your sons and daughters
Well, I can't change the world
And make things fair
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
The least that I can do is care
For the life of me
I can't see how the devil keeps enticing me
All you see is a felon
I know God can see what's right in me
How I can be labeled
As a villain in the first place
When the worst case scenario
Is my birth place
I'm just trying to keep from falling
Victim to the murder rate
Take my life lesson
Convincing the adolescents
There's a God up in heaven
Sending down blessings
And your future ain't brighter than your present
Quit stressing
Screaming on the left
And yelling on the right
While I'm sitting in the middle
Trying to live my life
'Cause I can't stop the war
Shelter homeless, feed the poor
I can't walk on water
I can't save your sons and daughters
Well, I can't change the world
And make things fair
Yeah, I wish I could do it though
The least that I can do is care
No, I can't stop the war
Shelter homeless, feed the poor
I can't walk on water
I can't save your sons and daughters
Well, I can't change the world
And make things fair, no, no, no, no
The least that I could do it though
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
I'll tell you what I can do
The least that I can do
Oh, is care
Yes, I can care
Did you know I can care?
Yes, I can care
This is what you can do
Care, oh yeah, care, care, care
