Not On My Watch

Don't let these events get a hold of you
Don't let them corrupt your mind
Don't let the anger dwell inside of you

I know you're much stronger than that
But you've been broken down
You've fought for so long and want to give up
But violence should not beget violence

So take all of your pain and forge it together
Let it burn deep down inside
And turn it into action
That is more beautiful than what you've seen
No one should have to feel this pain
Not on my watch

You look deep down inside of you
To see where you've gone wrong
"What did I do to deserve all of this bad luck?"
The rains fall on all peoples
And you have a chance
You have a chance to change the world with what you've experienced

Take all of your pain and forge it together
Let it burn deep down inside
And turn it into action
That is more beautiful than what you've seen
No one should have to feel this pain
Not on my watch

You have a chance to change the world
