The Real World

Welcome to the real world
Where no one will agree
Welcome to the real life
Where it is not a breeze
Not everyone will be happy
Not everyone is nice
So be prepared to find people
Who'll be friends with a price

But if we all work together
Do this step by step
We can make peace, not war
Everyone can be loved
Yes, there will be a few people
Who won't agree with us
But we won't let those other people
Take away our joy

You really think the world could change?
Are you thinking straight?
Haven't you seen the real world Where people are so mean?
They kill and hurt
Starve and wreck
Do anything they can
You need to think about your choice to change all this cruelty
You'll probably get just more hurt
This is the real world

Yes, there is a problem
A huge one I must say
But with the help of everyone
Then humanity'll stay
Everyone can live a life
A life that's free of fear
A life where everyone
Will have an ear to hear
So now I want to ask you
To ask the whole wide world
Will you help me with this task
To make this place
The real world?
