## Lyrics

Let's go!

So what you say?

We gotta talk about hate

All those stereotypes

Turn us into sound bites

Open up your mind, to a kind

That just might not be your type

We gotta talk about fear

Lurks inside you so beware, where?

Takes you over, and bulldozer

Through your brain not acting sober

Got everybody in a panic

Do not know what to do, so frantic

Anger inside volcanic

Erupt and you'll corrupt this planet!

Feel that love, feel that love tonight

Yes, you've got that courage burning bright

Feel that love, feel that love tonight

Got that courage burning bright

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we will never bleed

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid

So listen up, we gotta talk about love

Not just for your boyfriend

And not just for your girlfriend

We're gonna need a plan

Understand, the whole planet can be friends

We gotta talk about hope

Wanna hear your dreams, your schemes, full scope

Make ya feel strong

Take a hold, take a stand

Break the mold

Bring it back from the dead

Start anew, shed the old

Livin' in a day so manic

Livin' cliche, so tragic

Everything automatic

Bad habits, bad habits, bad habits

Let me hear you scream

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid

(No we are not afraid, no we are not afraid)

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we will never bleed

(No we will never bleed, no we will never bleed)

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid

We believe we're stronger than the hate

We can rise above, be brave

Educate and elevate as we rage now

We believe we're stronger than the hate

We can rise above, be brave

Educate and elevate as we rage, go!

Through the rage and the tears we will carry on

They can try but they won't ever stop our song

Center stage and I'm brave as a mile long

Wide awake and I'll change every right from wrong

[Together]

We believe we're stronger than the hate

We can rise above, be brave

Educate and elevate as we rage now

We believe we're stronger than the hate

We can rise above, be brave

Educate and elevate as we rage, go!

Through the rage and the tears we will carry on

They can try but they won't ever stop our song

Center stage and I'm brave as a mile long

Wide awake and I'll change every right from wrong

Be brave now, be brave now, be brave now

That's how we rage now

Be brave now, be brave now

Let me hear you scream!

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid

(No we are not afraid, no we are not afraid)

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we will never bleed

(No we will never bleed, no we will never bleed)

Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, we are not afraid
