Conviction of the Heart

Where are the dreams
 That we once had?
 This is the time
 To bring them back
 What were the promises
 Caught on the tips of our tongues?
 Do we forget or forgive?
 There's a whole other life
 Waiting to be lived when
 One day we're brave enough
 To talk with conviction of the heart
 And down your streets
 I've walked alone
 As if my feet were not my own
 Such is the path I chose
 Doors I have opened and closed
 I'm tired of living this life
 Fooling myself, believing we're right when
 I've never given love
 With any conviction of the heart
 One with the earth
 With the sky
 One with everything in life
 I believe we'll survive
 If we only try
 How long must we all wait to change
 This world bound in chains that we live in
 To know what it is to forgive and be forgiven?
 Too many years of taking now
 Isn't it time to stop somehow?
 Air that's too angry to breathe
 Water our children can't drink
 You've heard it
 Hundreds of times
 You say you're aware
 Believe, and you care
 But do you care enough
 Where's your conviction of the heart?
 One with the Earth
 With the sky
 One with everything in life
 I believe it will start
 With conviction of the heart
 With the Earth
 With the sky
 One with everything in life
 I believe it will start
 With conviction of the heart
 One Earth
 One sky
 Only one world
 Only one chance
 For one life
 When will live
 (With conviction of the heart)
 One child
 One dream
 And only one life
 Give her one chance
 For one life
 When will we live
 Only one Earth
 Only one sky
 Only one world
 We've only got one chance
 To live in one life
 I believe it's only gonna start
 When we begin with
 Some conviction of the heart
