It just seems that we don't care at all
but through the wire we hear their call
the world is on fire and we can't put it out
we can't stay deaf their crying out loud
ah ya wili
hungry faces and hungry hearts
billboards selling expensive cars
leaves keep on fallen if we don't turn a page
we should be ashamed in this day and age
Ah Ya Wili
Closer come closer and you will see
that this is the real world we live in
closer come closer and you will see
that they bare a mark on their skin
Ah Ya Wili
Oh how my heart aches cause it's no near
can hardly describe how this feels
their eyes reveil their fears, hide their tears
oh see how their light shines despite the pain
can hardly believe where I stand
knowing they don't pretend, I can't comprehend
Ah Ya Wili
It's so hard just to stay alive
too many people struggling to survive
everybody has a cross to bear
there's only one world so we got to share
Ah Ya Wili
Closer come closer and you will see
that this is the real world we live in
closer come closer and you will see
that reaching out is no sin
